Hello everyone. Melissa here talking about the trials and tribulations of solids and a cool new teething and feeding spoon that has recently landed on the market.

I don’t know about you, but introducing solids proved more challenging for me with my first baby than I had expected. Having just overcome the hurdles of breastfeeding, I expected my baby to love sampling new foods. He did not. I expected him to want to play with the spoon. He did not. After several week of battles and tears, I went back to the doctor who advised me to forget about solids until month 7. At that point, things got slightly easier but my baby rejected every type of green and barely tolerated the fruits. Instead, he craved the breastmilk part of his meal, which he found more fun and soothing. The spoon feeding part of the meal proved miserable for both of us. In essence, food did not equal fun.

Enter our giveaway with OlaBaby today for some amazing prizes! See below!

When OlaBaby approached me with their innovative teething spoon OlaSprout, my interest was peaked. This special spoon acts like a toy and looks like a plant. Babies can use it as a teether and eat all types of food while learning to appreciate vegetables. Bye-bye “fear of green”.

These spoons are made for the modern baby, and designed to suit your baby’s exacts needs and stage of development. Flexible tips reduce the risk of injury. Your baby can chew on them and soothe his gums. Your baby also is encouraged to feed himself because gripping the spoon and putting it in his mouth feels good. And OlaSpout’s spoons are made of food grade silicone, which is 100% BPA free.

If you’re in the infant feeding or toddler feeding stage and looking to encourage healthy eating habits, consider trying an OlaSprout teething spoon. I wish I’d had a few around to make solids and self-feedings a fun, creative and positive experience.

This cool company is offering a generous prize package worth approximately $200 to CloudMom followers:

a BEABA Babycook Pro Baby Food Maker (Special Anniversary Edition) – ARV $150

2 packs of their OlaSprout Bendable Baby Training Spoon Teethers (you get 2 of their awesome spoons in each pack for a grand total of 4!) – ARV $30.

What a way to begin the holidays here at CloudMom! I am crossing my fingers for one of you!

Love, Melissa

xoxo
