Babies: 9 - 12 Months

Iron

I did some research and iron fortified foods are not good for a baby's gut. For those not giving LO iron fortified food, what natural foods are you giving to meeting the daily req of 11 mg per day? 

Re: Iron

  • Just regular food.. I don't even think about it TBH. I just give her a variety of healthy foods. She is BF too and we've still never had an iron problem.

     If you are really concerned LO isn't getting enough, meat, beans and dark green veggies have lots of iron.
