Red Meat - Beef

I decided to try feeding Nathan with a new meat instead of his usual fish dishes - beef.

Bought 100g of topside minced from NTUC, separated over 2 days. After two dinners, he seemed to take it well. The only thing is, I haven't seen his poo yet, so I'm not sure how well his system is digesting the food. Plus, he smells of beef the whole night, like how he used to smell of fish after a fishy meal, but only for a couple of days. I reckon that it's probably like this for babies. When a new food is introduced, they take a while to recognise it, and everything goes well in there, he is gamed for trying more new things.

It's not that I'm not happy with hs growth, in fact, we're both contented with our chubby tod. I've read enough to be convinced that he should taste more meat, rather than sticking with the mashed veggies and fish. Meat has a rougher texture which he needs to get used to. It will prepare him better for table food in future.
