Compare Notes with NN Parents

[Guest guest]

Greetings,

Some of you in this group have young kids, and I would like to compare notes

with you

guys regarding our 7 mo old daughter.

Lately I have been feeling that she is not gaining weight as expected, and I

think that's

partly because she is refusing to eat a lot of the NT-style foods.

Some backgound - she was never given any baby formula and we haven't given her

any baby

cereal either.

Starting at 4.5 months, she was given an egg yolk a day.

Around 5 mo. we started CLO, occasionally bananas and avocados.

Around 5.5 mo we started a little butter to complement the CLO, and some boiled

fish

Around 6 mo. we started lightly cooked lamb.

The trouble is that she first started disliking egg yolks (around a month back)

and

simply refused to eat it, so we stopped that.

Now she is displaying the same aversion towards butter and fish.

We think it is too early to start full blown vegetables, grains, etc. and would

like to

stick with these items only - but she simply doesn't want to eat enough.

Do you guys think that NN fed babies would gain weight slower than others

because they

are not being fed formula and cereal?

I would like to compare numbers with like-minded parents - our baby was 15 lb at

the 6

month mark (haven't tested since then).

Thanks for any ideas, responses.
