What do u feed ur lo for breakfast? My lo is 10 months n has started refusaing oatmeal

DD2 still gets pureed fruit mixed with oatmeal for breakfast, only because I'm using up the stash of purees I made. When those run out, she'll get the same breakfast as DD1 - she tends to rotate through cereal, pancakes or waffles w/fruit, scrambled eggs w/veg and ham, sometimes toast with cinnamon or peanut butter and fruit.

ETA: Muffins, too. I made a huge batch of banana mini muffins and froze them, so I just stick them in the microwave for 15-20 seconds to thaw and they're an easy breakfast for both of the girls.

We will give her a scrambled egg, maybe with some veggies mixed into it. Fruit of all types, a piece of toast (sliced into thin strips) with a strawberry or somethings smooshed onto it for 'jelly'. And/ or if we are in a hurry a package of Plum Organics fruit/ fruit and veggie things. Most of those are not meant for breakfast but she doesn't mind.
My LO has never had oatmeal unless you count her getting some in her mouth when she ripped open a bag of instant oatmeal. I bought her a thing of oatmeal from plum organics and she just hated the texture. Then again my LO pretty much hates anything she can't feed to herself.

We started eggs at 10 mis.

So, egg, yogurt, fruit, homemade whole wheat banana pancakes, homemade whole wheat sweet potato pancakes, cottage cheese, toast.... These are pretty much what we rotate through.

I made a batch of the pancakes and froze them. I just take one out and heat up and butter it (no syrup).

My little one isn't a big breakfast eater. We do multi grain cheerios, fruits likes, bananas, blueberries, strawberries, etc. scrambled eggs with cheese, mushrooms, and a little tobasco (she loves these.)

She has never cared for purees so finger like foods work best for us.

Okay, now I'm going to sound really stupid. When do you give solids for breakfast?

DD wakes at about 6:15, has a 4-6oz bottle at 6:45 and goes to daycare at 7:15. They give her solids around 8 or 9:00 for breakfast.

I realize this is a total FTM question, but should I start switching that 6:45 to solids at home now?

Cheerios dipped in yogurt or applesauce, and/or pieces of banana.

We do a bottle at wake up, around 6:30-7, then solids breakfast around 8:30-9, right before her first nap. When we drop that wake up bottle I'll give her breakfast then and a snack around 9.

I vary it up - cottage cheese with fruit, or yogurt with fruit, or oatmeal with fruit (a theme! haha!), on Sundays I make a family brunch and he'll get a pancake, scrambled eggs, etc.

The fruit is whatever I found at the grocery store that week - bananas, applesauce, slices of very ripe peaches/mangoes, halved raspberries (a little tart for him yet I think), chunks of honeydew or watermelon, etc.

Okay, good. Sounds like what we're doing. Just want to make sure we're on track.

eggs, waffles, pancakes, fruit, cheese, bagels, toast, "french toast" - bread dipped in egg and cooked, modified benedicts.......

Lara0802 · August 2012

It all depends on how early I need to get to work.

This morning, DD had scrambled eggs and then some pieces of waffle with some pureed fruit spread on them.

We mix it up between eggs, fruit, cottage cheese, yogurt, waffles, cheerios, and oatmeal.

Same as PP, oatmeal and fruit puree, sometimes egg. (You can just scramble the yolk) Or toast with banana smeared on it cut into strips, or sometimes a rice cake with fruit.

KarlieeAnne · August 2012

We do a piece of toast (or two) and sliced fruit...bananas, slightly cooked apples, strawberries etc etc... I can sometimes give her oatmeal with fruit added, but usually I end up making toast to go with it. She likes finger food much more that being spoon fed.
