Babies: 9 - 12 Months

What foods is your 6-7 mo eating?

I make DD's food & am trying to offer a variety. So far she's had avocado, sweet potato, green beans, sweet peas, oatmeal, brown rice, plums, zucchini, butternut squash, apples.

I think I'll try cauliflower next?

I think we're going to try yogurt for breakfast soon.

When do you start offering chunks of stuff if they have no teeth?

We've avoided bananas b/c DD has been constipated. But if I eat one, she can gum on a little piece right?

    Cool! I think she will like yogurt. The zucchini was easy. I cut it into slices & steamed it. Then pureed it with the peels on. 

    She won't put the puffs in her mouth. We've only tried twice though.

     

  • DD has only been eating solids for a little over a month so she's eating a smaller variety than your DD. So far she's had avocado, oatmeal, bananas, carrots, sweet potato, squash, apple and brown rice. I think next (in a couple of days) we'll introduce another veggie and then another fruit or maybe some chicken (a few days after that). Probably in a few weeks I'll start going with a little more texture.

  • She's eating pureed fruits (apples, bananas, peaches, pears) mixed with either rice or oatmeal, and for veggies, she eats sweet potatoes and carrots. She hates peas and isn't too keen on the squash. I'm not too worried about her "getting her veggies" since solids is mostly for practice right now. My pedi just said at her six month appointment that we can start giving her mashed up things like potato and banana.

  • DS eat: puffs, banana, avocado, butternut squash, apples, mango, and sweet potatoes. I just bought some pears to make in a few days.
  • DD eats oatmeal mixed with fruit for breakfast (she's had apples and pears). She's also had avocado, but didn't like it.

    As for veggies, she's eaten sweet potatoes, green beans, peas, butternut squash, carrots and broccoli. The only one she really hated was green beans, although she didn't love the peas either.

    She ocassionally eats mum mums and puffs to help her pinscher grasp and to help her learn to chew. She loves both of them! I recently bought some yogurt melts to try, but I think we're going to hold off on all dairy until 8 months.

  • We just do oatmeal, green beans and peas. Of course we just started solids a week and a half ago. How did I not know about puffs and mum mums?!  Oh the things you learn on the bump!  I will have to go get some...
  • Mine goes in and out of liking solids but he has tried a lot. veggies- carrots, sweet potatoes, squash, green beans, and peas. fruits- apples, pears, peaches (hated), prunes, avocado, and banana. He also eats oatmeal and vanilla yobaby yogurt. We have started cheerios, mum mums, yogurt melts, and puffs (i put these in his mouth, he cant do it himself yet).

  • Teagan is 11 months now, but one dessert that he loved was strawberry and pear combined. You just cut up a few pears, mix in with a handful of strawberries, let it cook for 5 minutes then puree it. I saved the liquid for juice, just water it down so it isn't so strong. He also liked broccoli, but mix it with sweet potato otherwise she'll just move it around in her mouth.
