Mamma's milk probably tastes like coke or Sonic Cherry Limeade. Who'd want to give that up?

There, I made you smile, didn't I?

I seem to recall that DS9 wasn't such a fan of solid foods in the 8 - 10 month age range. He did enjoy Cheerios, so I got through that stage by putting Cheerios on his high chair tray, and letting him go to town on them. Then, in between fingerfulls of Cheerios, I was able to get a few spoonfuls of fruits and veggies into his mouth. I think he was distracted by his beloved Cheerios so he didn't protest the baby food. Whatever works, right?

As you know, a baby's height versus weight in any given week isn't necessarily cause for concern - the proportions will probably change in a few days, anyway.
