Weaning food

I started solids for A when he was 5 months. I was to resume job soon. His paed was against bottle feeding as bottle is prone to infections, hence didnt want to start bottle. I was to leave A in daycare or with nanny, they won't have motivation to spoon feed milk. So starting solids was better. His paed recommended to start it.
I started one new food at a time and increased quantity gradually over 4-5 days. I started with fruits/veg first because they are easy to digest than cereals.  Here is the order I introduced. I will post the recipies in separate post.
*Banana
*Apple
*Rice
*Carrot
*Yellow moong daal
*Sweet potato
*Chikoo
*Green Beans
*Ragi

Creche bag

This is what I pack for his creche bag:
* One pair of clothes
* 4 cloth diapers
* 2 disposable diapers (in case he runs out of cloth ones)
* wet bag (to keep soiled cloth diapers)
* changing sheet
* cloth wipes
* bed sheet
* light blanket
* face towel
* any medicine if needed like nasal spray
* cap n pair of socks
* 2 lunch box (he takes 2 solid feeds)
* sipper
* 3 spoons (one extra in case spoon fells down while feeding)

6.5 month

In past 2 weeks I can see so much development.  He is able to bear weight on his legs for few mins. He is able to sit unspported for few secs or a min without slouching in front. When on tummy he likes to tap with his hand. Dh has got drum app on ipad for him to play. He hits so hard, makes sound and enjoys it.
Most of all he has cut his first tooth. Yaaaaayy. I can see small white dot on his bottom gum. I see it from past 10days and I am so ignorant (call me first time mom) I thought he had got white boil because I gave him onion juice (to cure cough) which has got heat. After few days I realized it is white pearl. Till now teething has been total trouble free. I have got teether also for him.
He has become more mobile. He tries to escape out of our hands and try to grab anything that fascinates him especially food items or anything bright coloured.
