[blparent] rejecting foods

[Amber Boggs]

Sena has six teath, but at first he just gummed the foods rather then 
chooing them. With chicken I just gave him very small bites so that even if 
he did nto gumm it he would not choke. Remember at this point food is just 
for the experience and not really for neutrition. She should still be 
getting most of what she needs if not all of what she needs from your 
breastmilk.
