Win Baby's First Solids from Babymama!

Before introducing solid food to our child we should always check out first for the signs of readiness for solid food. If your child can already hold their head up and sit upright in a highchair, shows significant weight gain (doubled birth weight) and weighs at least 13 pounds, can close their mouth around a spoon, and can already move food from the front to the back of their mouth then your child is likely ready to try solids. You can try these solids : Breast milk or formula, plus Pureed vegetables (peas, squash) Pureed fruit (apples, bananas, peaches) Pureed meat (chicken, pork, beef) Semi-liquid, iron-fortified cereal (avoid rice cereals; instead choose a cereal made with oats or barley) Small amounts of unsweetened yogurt (no cow's milk until age 1) As you introduce solids to your child you must also learn about the difference between choking and gaggling and the proper ways to deal with it. Always remember that breastmilk would always be the best for babies up to 2 yrs. old. 💗Mommy Nhel🫰 #BabyMama
