That’s why I want to tell you about the ones that during complementary feeding with my three children were my first options and with the first one they helped me to overcome my fears and with the twins I had more under control.
Always cooked, steamed, boiled, etc. It has the particularity that when in contact with the tongue it practically melts by itself, this is because of the components of the saliva and the potato itself that give us that reaction when in contact.
I leave you this link to the post on the subject of allergies so that you remember why it is not necessary to delay the introduction of food and in which cases it is necessary to pay more attention. SYMPTOMS OF ALLERGIES AND FOOD INTRODUCTION
When we started to introduce meats to Javier, I was still a bit apprehensive, so tomato was my salvation, I grated it and put it on the meat, that way he managed it much better, especially at the beginning when I didn’t put egg on the beef burgers for example, which makes them softer.
It was very difficult to manage it because it stuck to the palate, I let it sit for a couple of weeks and then I offered it again and it was phenomenal, hence I did not consider it the best to start with as I read on so many sites.
complementary feeding
What is the best way for babies to learn to eat? More and more parents are signing up for the Baby-led Weaning (BLW) method or baby-led complementary feeding. Do you know all the recommendations to follow when putting it into practice? Both to ensure their safety and to give them a healthy and balanced diet. We will tell you about them below.
It is important to offer water during meals. If your baby is breastfed, he may refuse it. Don’t worry. Many infants prefer to regulate themselves with the breast by taking short, frequent feedings in order to ingest the most watery part of the breastfeeding, the one at the beginning.
One of the biggest concerns parents have when it comes to BWL is the fear of choking. In reality, most babies are capable enough to manage food in their mouths on their own by 6 months of age.
The first thing to do in this case is to stay calm. We will wait a few seconds to see if the baby can solve it by himself. Normally, he will expel the piece of food by his own means.
baby led weaning (blw)
Baby led weaning (blw), which can be translated as “self-regulated complementary feeding” or “complementary feeding on demand”, is a way of incorporating solids into the baby’s diet without going through the phase of purees and porridges, with the baby feeding himself using his hands.
Decades ago, it became fashionable to feed babies from bottles. At that time, formula milk was nothing more than cow’s milk diluted with water, so the baby quickly lacked a lot of nutrients.
At around 3 or 4 months, they had to be fed other complementary foods and since at that age they couldn’t eat on their own, it made sense to mash the food or make porridge and spoon feed it to them.
We started BLW the day he turned 6 months. At first we only gave him one solid food a day.a few days later we saw that the little one managed food in his mouth very well.we offered him steamed vegetables: potatoes, carrots, onion, broccoli, pumpkin, green beans, zucchini fruit: orange juice, apple, pear, banana, tomato (without skin and seeds), avocado, cereals: quinoa, millet, white rice and meat: chicken.one day he got a little reaction with a tomato. We waited a couple of days and gave her tomato again. We offered him water in a two-handled cup at meals.
baby led weaning: how to start
When you ask me about the best foods to start with I always answer the same… start with the one that makes you feel confident. Some foods that do not fail are boiled potato, boiled carrot, grilled zucchini, ripe pear and banana… Soft foods always cut in “stick” format so they can grasp them with their whole hand and suck them easily. Do not forget that foods should always be introduced one by one, if you have doubts about this, check out our post “the three-day rule”.
On the other hand, and especially because many families worry that at the beginning they eat very little (or nothing), it would be logical to think that if we are starting the transition “from the boob to the table”, and given that during the next 6 months the main food will continue to be milk, either breast or artificial, the best foods to start with will be those that can offer something that the boob does not have. The teat has almost everything, except iron.
