It was Monday that I first attempted to feed Rachel anything other than formula or cereal. Both Tuesday and Wednesday Jeff was in charge of Rachel’s dinner, so you will have to talk to him about any feeding observations he had. Tonight (Thursday) I fed Rachel her dinner again. This time I mixed the squash with cereal. I don’t know if that is legal or not, but Rachel did eat it better, although I wouldn’t describe her approach as particularly enthusiastic, but it was more successful. She did join the “Clean Plate” club that my parents were so fond of. I’m not sure if I got more food down her outside or her inside, but at least the bowl was empty when I finished.
Back in the olden days, when Rachel just consumed formula, her feeding only took 10 minutes at most. Tonight, however, it took over 40 minutes to finish her dinner.
