Introducing solids to Jack Jack

World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends to start solid food after 6 months but we started to give him solid at his 5 months 3rd week (24th April 2010).

Why?

We always put him on bumbo chair and put on top of dining table so that we still can watch him while we eating,and JJ stares at us with his mouth 'tap tap tap'.
(Note: it's not recommended to put bumbo on elevated surface! But we are watching, so it's safe. LOL.)

Refers to some website, the few "signs" that may indicate baby is ready for Solid Foods as below:-

(1) Does your baby watch you with eager anticipation when you eat? Maybe he even opens his mouth, or tries to grab your spoon? YES!

(2)Is your baby waking at night after previously sleeping through? YES! He woke up at 4am out of his routine sleeping pattern.

(3) Does your baby have good head control? YES! Especially when he turn his head away if he doesnt want his milk!

So, we bought the Heinz baby cereal & started his very first taste of solids.
