8mths old food
I caught my mil feeding carrot cake (dim sum) to my 8 mth old lo. She insists at 8mths old they can eat everything including kfc mashed potatoes. She fed him ice cream before as well. Isit okay for babies below a year old to eat such food? I'm not sure what else she has been feeding my lo behind my back. I'm really worried and told her multiple times, no salt/oily food.
No sugar or salt below 1 year old is my policy so which means I either give mine homemade baby food or commercial baby food meant for appropriate age (I check the ingredients list) . I think what's really important is you have to educate her and make sure she doesn't feed honey to your baby unknowingly since it could be present in some food that she feeds baby, eg. Yogurt ice cream etc and that's dangerous as honey can cause death in babies below 1.
Read moreMy baby at 8 months ate soft cake, ice cream, durian, mashed potatoes,bread. So far no allergies and my baby loves it. Went to see doc ,doc check he said my baby is healthy and doing great.
Early introduction of salt may led to kidney probs as it is still too young to handle and process out the intake.. you may wanna ask your mil, what if her mother does that to her son? Sometimes they really have to be "reminded" of their position, feel in your shoes

That is sooo wrong. I've read before a baby below 1yr old died because his grandma fed him rice or something. The poor baby's stomach burst. So sad. Pls stop your mil. You have ALL the right to stop her cz that is your baby, not hers.
No. As a mother you should stand your ground and be firm on what should be fed to your baby. Babies below 1 year old should not be exposed to food with salt and sugar. This is your child and you decide whats best. Take care.
One old doctor told me baby can eat anything as long they don't get choked and no allergy. I think he is right. Eat like an adult and sleep like an adult. Works for my babyđ€đ»
I wonât give such food below 1 yo. Maybe can get ur hubby to educate her abit. But itâs all out of love for the grandkids, though inappropriate.
Ya..my mil fed kfc chicken porridge to my LO! Its very annoying,i try to give excuses whenever she want to sleepover my house!
Ask your hubby to tell your mil firmly no other food besides the ones you guys mentioned to her
