Every Mom I talk to seems to have a different theory on how to introduce solids to a baby. Veggies then fruits was my pediatrician's plan. Green foods then orange was another.
But I haven't found a single path that guarantees your baby is going to love everything you put in their mouth ... and one adorable little guy named Andrew was caught on video recently showing just how bad things can go when your baby gets a taste of something they don't like. The cutie is more than happy to suck down spoons full of pears, but when Mom pulls a bait and switch and tries to give her little guy peas, well ... just watch what happens.
Woooh hoooo! Somebody is maaaaad, and he's not going to take it! Just wait until they try to give him something really gross, like, ewww, liver!

I know it would be cruel to do this over and over and over again, but if my (now 7-year-old) kid made faces that cute every time, I would be tempted to switch out her favorite foods for her not-so-favorite foods at every meal ... provided someone would stand over my shoulder at all times with a camera trained on her to catch the reaction, of course. Sadly, these days she's more likely to tell me in no uncertain terms what a meanie I am for actually expecting her to eat tomato sauce on pasta (you know, the same sauce she will GLADLY eat on pizza).

awww lol he was mad
I was actually pretty lucky with my daughter because I have never had a problem getting her to eat her veggies. In fact, her favorite was peas. I know, I was amazed myself. I make this rice dinner with peas and a few other veggies, and she will pick the peas out and eat them seperately first. Same with broccolli, I steam it, she will eat it. Also, if there is something I cant get her to eat, I just put cheese on it, and it does the trick every time.
Why don't you just spoon that in a little faster. Geeze.. Let the kid swallow!!
awwww lol my kids did that a time or two lol
I really hate the tast e of peas to! lol
My baby loves almost anything so we rarely see that face. He doesn't like carrots though. He will eat them mixed with other things (even broccoli) but he just doesn't like carrots on their own. He did make that face pretty much the first time he tried each new food, around 6-8 months. I did not try to get it on camera because actually I don't really like the sight of my baby gagging and feeling disgusted. Sometimes I wonder about people who like to make jokes at their baby's expense.
