[blparent] rejecting foods

Hmmm, maybe you already do this, but I used to mix those baby foods with a little bit of cereal, 
mostly because it was more convenient to make it thicker for feeding purposes. Does Sarah like plain 
cereal? Maybe mixing it in with the meats will taste better? Try mixing in a teeny bit of breast 
milk. I heard somewhere that you shouldn't give up feeding something 'til you've tried it ten times. 
I hope something works for you guys.

A smile costs nothing but gives much.  It enriches those who receive without making poorer those who 
give.  It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever.  None is so rich or 
mighty that he cannot get along without it and none is so poor that he cannot be made rich by it. 
Yet a smile cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is of no value 
to anyone until it is given away.  Some people are too tired to give you a smile.  Give them one of 
yours, as none needs a smile so much as he who has no more to give.

Hi.  I'm thankful that I have the moms and dads on this list to ask questions of, since I don't 
really have my own mother available at this time.  My question is, how can I make meats more 
appealing to my baby?  She gobbles up all fruits and vegetables, cereals, and cheese.  I buy the 
organic baby food purees, but she won't touch the meats.  Turkey, beef, whatever, she just gags and 
cries and spits them out.  I've tried a bite of meat and a bite of vegetables, but she'll eat the 
veggies and reject the meat.  Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Jo Elizabeth
