First bite at Fish and doing fine


Heidi started taking fish with her porridge in Del-care on 4 May and she has been doing fine so far. While Oliver has traits of a puppy, Heidi has those of a mouse. Heidi fancies food, unlike Oliver. She salivates at the sight of food, wants to be one of the diners when we eat our meals. Give her anything, and she will take anything. Heidi has only one little tooth at her lower jaw, and it is not even fully grown yet.

At her mealtimes, I will sometimes walk away to get tissue to wipe her mouth. She will get very upset and scream thinking that I walk away with her food. There was one time, I did not make enough for her. I could sense her starting to get very upset when the spoon has lesser portion than those earlier scoops. Then she finally screamed at the sight of an empty bowl. Alright, alright, I assured her that I would make more rice cereal for her. She ended up having two bowls of rice cereal and it was really a bit too much for tiny Heidi. She threw up 30 minutes later. A tiny mouse with a huge appetite, and a BIG squeaky scream. That's Heidi at her 8 month.
