No food for baby

Yesterday Baby J would have nothing to do with any of her solid food. We continue to try giving her either rice or multi-grain cereal and strained pears everyday. She has *eaten* all of these foods in the past, but uniformly pushed them out of her mouth yesterday. I'm trying not to make a big deal of it. In the Super Baby Foods book I have it mentions not to get frustrated or upset if your baby refuses food - they can pick up on those signals. So, I'm trying.

She did, however, drink lots of milk at each nursing session. We didn't nurse more frequently than normal, but she spent more time on each boob. Traditionally she pulls off long before my milk supply is gone; yesterday was very different. Maybe she's going through a growth spurt, but is still not ready to eat solid food. I'll keep trying.

No formula yesterday. Naps were in the baby bjorn, and generally nursed to sleep.
