Babies: 9 - 12 Months

Does your LO like yogurt?

I just gave DD yogurt today and it was the first thing she has ever spit back out! I gave her whole milk plain yogurt because all of the yobaby and other baby ones seemed to have a lot of sugar :( Do you add anything to the yogurt to make it taste better? She loves yogurt bites and I know those are sweetened with fruit, so maybe just mix in some fruit puree?

Thanks!

Re: Does your LO like yogurt?

  • Anything made with milk and fruit will have a crap-ton of sugar. Milk is mostly sugar, as is fruit. Both are horrible if you're a diabetic. They'll make your blood sugar spike like it's no one's business.

    But yes, DS has a love affair with yogurt. And cheese.

    Yes, you can add purees to yogurt; fruit, vegetable, whatever.

  • I gave my daughter some Brown Cow maple yogurt yesterday with diced strawberries mixed in and she loved it! I guess I worry less about sugar (she's eating so little of it) and more about artificial colors/flavors/preservatives. I don't think she's had plain yogurt because I don't really buy plain yogurt, but I would certainly try mixing in some fruit puree - what's the worst that could happen?

  • DS loves yogurt. I freeze it in baby size pieces that he can grab. You would think he's in baby heaven. I really don't worry about the sugar since he doesn't eat too much at a time.
  • Yes, my DS likes yogurt. I gave him YoBaby peach yogurt. I would have preferred to buy plain whole milk yogurt but I could find no such thing at my grocery store - everything was low/non-fat.

  • DS is obsessed. He even likes plain Greek yogurt (barf)! He gets it every morning at daycare after his normal breakfast.

  • We do plain yogurt and she won't touch it unless I add fruit - I don't even like it plain. Her favorite is if I add some squished banana to it. :)

  • DS loves plain coconut milk yogurt (allergic to cow's milk). I love it too. 
  • Yes, she does.

  • I would spit out plain yogurt if someone gave it to me too!!

    I do YoBaby, Stonyfield Vanilla Yogurt, or plain yogurt mixed with applesauce and cinnamon.  She loves it!

    Ive given the same yogurt. She spat it out aswell... I have never tried plain whole yogurt so i gave it a try and it was sour.. I thought it was bad but whole plain yogurt is sour haha.. So i mashed a banana and mixed in it and she ate it all!

  • I think she likes it, but it doesn't seem to be one of her favorite foods so far. I use Stonyfield organic plain yogurt made with whole milk (there is no sugar added) and then I add in some kind of fruit puree for flavor.

  • We tried organic whole milk plain yogurt--and she didn't like it. We mixed in fruit purees--and still not crazy. But SHE LOVES yo baby, greek yogurt and any other kind of "flavored' yogurt.

  • My kid doesn't care for yogurt.  I tried 4 different kinds. He didn't like any of it. Yogurt and strawberries are the only thing he has ever turned down. Which aremy two favourite things! Weird.
