The Force

Z had her first purposeful taste – as opposed to furtive sampling from the dinner table – of non-breastmilk food at lunch today. Our first food of choice: plain yogurt. Traditionally, we've done banana diluted with some breastmilk or soupy rice cereal, but neither were on hand. The reaction? The usual puckered face, get-this-off-my-tongue gagging. Except I've noticed that Z's gag reflex is particularly strong, in comparison with G or BB, so it's lucky that I tried the yogurt on an empty stomach.
