Hi Reader,

​

I can't believe baby Madeline is 10 months old already!

​

It's been fun seeing her reach milestones like crawling. Just this week she's been pulling herself up on furniture and attempting to stand.

​

Over the past month, she's also been having three meals already—mostly because she really likes being a part of family meals. Most babies are typically ready for 3 meals a day by the time they are 10 or 11 months old but it's not uncommon to see some babies having 3 meals much earlier.

​

Lately, raspberries, oranges, tofu, and falafel have been foods she really enjoys. Raspberries are perhaps her most desired food right now since she finished a small container for breakfast on her own!

​

Here are a few meals that she had at 9 months:

​

During this time, I was offering foods in different sizes as she was transitioning from finger-shaped foods to more bite size pieces. She still does better with finger-shaped for certain foods (like toast) and bite sizes pieces for others (like fruits and certain veggies).

​

This is usually an in-between period for sizes and textures where you may have to play around a bit to see what's most appropriate and preferred by your little one.

It's been a joy watching her eat. I love watching how she picks up a food with one hand and then cradles her other hand underneath it for support. Super cute!

​

If you're following BLW and want to set yourself and your baby up for success, come join me inside the Vegan Baby Led Weaning course.

​

In Module 3, Lesson 5, you'll learn about texture progression and advancement so you can confidently prepare a meal that suits your baby's needs—just like how I've been doing with Madeline this month.
