baby's first solids: preparing and storing solid food for baby

[clueless]

^ my baby is 8.5 months old. She's eating happy baby puffs na, parang cheerios but organic and without the high salt content.

Pedia said ok na to give chunky food basta soft so i guess corn and pease may be ok.

^^^ my baby just tried marie last weekend. Pedia said to wait til she has teeth.

[DV]

^^Hindi pa kaya i-digest ng baby ang corn niblets because of the tough membrane. Lalabas yan ng ganun din ang hitsura. Same with whole peas, (apart from being a choking hazard) kailangang i-mash and separate the membrane through a sieve. You can try steamed baby corn and mash that too, or peel each niblet before feeding.

[clueless]

^^^ i checked my recipes. Kailangan pa nga imash ang peas.

I'm preparing fish for my baby this weekend and the recipe has mashed peas.

for mommies who give malunggay to their babies, at what month pwede ito? and how did you prepare/cook it? thanks

[twinnie]

wow dami kong natututunan here...

sige lang mga sisses share lang kayo. next month mag solids na babies ko and first time din ako as in walang idea... 

[wengerts]

^^ leaves lang talaga, remove the stalks/branches, wash. boil with broth or chicken stock tapos food processor until yung consistency na pwede na kay baby.
di ko na maalala kelan ako nagbigay ng malunggay hehe

[pinkcoyote]

^thanks weng!

Pedia said i can give fresh water fish (flakes) na daw.. Pero baka next month or sa 8th month ko na lang bigyan..ubusin ko muna lahat ng fruits and veggies na naka-line up hehe

has anyone here made homemade teething biscuits? if yes can you post the recipe? thanks!

[missoni]

sis how long naglast biscuit phase ng baby mo and paano siya nawala?

from 7-8 months, puro biscuit lang talaga kinakain nya kaya binawi namin sa breastmilk, when he turned 9 months, bigla na lang na kumakain na ulit sya ng "real food".  factor din siguro na tumubo na yung teeth nya kaya bumalik yung appetite nya.

for teething sis i think okay naman yung cheerios, just give it when your baby is seated, just to prevent accidental choking.

[pumngold]

pwede na ba bigyan ng teething biscuits ang mga 7 months baby?

[_pink12_]

sis pinkcoyote, ganun din gawa namin sa malunggay, leaves lang tapos steam and puree.

Last weekend, ang ginawa ng nanay ko na food for baby. Naglugaw sya tapos on a separate pot, boil sya ng fish tail, malunggay ang squash, yung stock nun dinagdag nya sa lugaw ni baby. Sarap na sarap si baby

[pinkcoyote]

^^thanks sis, id like to try malunggay next time

I tried feeding my baby 2x today. I tried giving her cerelac in the morning, then rice and potato from nilaga and yung sabaw nun. kaso konti lang nakain. i think dahil din masama pakiramdam niya kaya ayaw niya kumain. i'll try again tomorrow. sana successful na. i'm also looking for easy to prepare food for babies. hindi ako masipag kasi sa ganyan.

[HeartHeart]

kapag kumakain na ang baby.  yung milk nya every 2-3 hours pa rin ba?

[wengerts]

^ sis as much as possible dapat hindi gaanong mabago ang milk intake nya kasi nagppractice pa lang sya sa solids. suggest ko to take your cue from your baby kung okay pa sya to eat

[miksha]

baby just turned 8months. can i start baby on meat? beef or chicken? do i have to puree or is giniling enough?

[clueless]

^ my pedia recommended white fish muna when baby was 8 months. Then beef the month after then chicken naman.

[reb_woods072683]

nagpoprogress na ang baby ko when it comes to eating. in the morning, I give her cerelac and at lunch, we give her whatever ulam we have and yung sabaw. yesterday we had tofu and she ate more than 5 subo naman. and then nung gabi naka 3 lang siya. pero ok lang din kasi hindi pa siya sanay gano. i'm happy with the result naman. hindi ko pa talaga magawa gawa yang ground rice kasi sarado pa ang palengke pag nauwi ako.

speaking of ground rice, pwede ba yan ilagay agad sa bottle and store o kailangan ilalagay lang kapag iinom na si baby ng milk? tsaka pwede bang ilagay sa ref yun after?

[wengerts]

^^^ yes you can start on meats na. try to stay away from chicken if you and/or hubby has allergies. yes you have to puree it. wala pa syang ipin to chew it properly.

^ hi sis, sorry hindi ko masyado naintindihan. you put yung cooked ground rice sa feeding bottle with milk? then tinatanong mo if pag nakain na nya from the feeding bottle kung pwede i-ref lang ulit then pakain mo ulit?
