The trike does look great and will definitely grow with them, so much to choose from.
Tez, you ok hun, sounds like your having a bad day? pm me later if you want.
I try and give Hollie a variety mainly fresh foods but I buy a couple jars each week so on average she might have about 2 per week, I do find jars are good when your first weaning cos of the texture and some babies do prefer them to homemade food but Hollie likes both.
I don't have a lot of time so often make food on the go rather than bulk cook and freeze occasionally if I make extra then i'll freeze them, but she mainly as family meals. I think jar food is a personal choice I'm not keen on fb people take things to personal, and all babies are different so will react differently to certain foods, only you know what's best for Naomi.
Breakfast is usually milk and cereal, maybe a yogurt, she tends to have her brekie quite late so lunch is usually finger food like cheese spread on pitta bread, crumpets, fruit, ,yogurt, rice pudding, carrot puffs etc. Then dinner is usually fresh, veg with potato little bit meat/pasta, shepherds pie,cheesy mash, spaghetti bolognaise or jar if I don't have much in or busy then I'll give her a jar. I don't give a big meal at lunch time cos when I have done she hardly drinks much milk through the day.
I'm not keen on grapes so don't them to Hollie, just known too many lo's who's choke on them but she has other fruit instead, if you do want to try Naomi just cut them up small.
Cheese spread is fine, not given Hollie mature cheddar yet, but you could try her as long as the salt isn't high.
Having my own drama at moment my grandads funereal is on Wednesday and still haven't got babysitter for Hollie x
