Babies: 6 - 9 Months

Anyone feeding their LO meat baby food?

We started feeding our LO meat baby food for dinner but aren't sure what else we should be feeding her with it.  She currently eats half a tub of meat baby food and cereal for dinner.  Is that too much?  Any thoughts?

  • When I make chicken, I chop off a piece of cooked chicken before I salt it, then I put it in the blender with some water and some cooked veggies. I blend it until it's just slightly chunky. So far, he likes it.

  • We're doing BLW, but I don't think there's "too much" if they want to eat.  When we give her heat, she typically also has a fruit and a veggie to pick from, sometimes a starch of some sort as well (i.e., whole grain cracker, etc).
  • I won't do meat as a puree, only as a finger food, so it will be a couple months before she gets it I think.

  • We skipped meat purees and went right to meat as finger foods.  Typically, we give her fruit/veggies with meat, sometimes she gets a grain too, rice or couscous, depending on what we are having.

  • If you are still doing purees and have not moved to table food, then I have seen people feed the meat with a veggie too (in other words, a little from each container).

    I use Earth's Best, which has their meats already mixed in in "meals" with veggies, fruits, and grains. Stage 2.

  • we do the 'meals' for dinner... chicken and veggies. turkey and veggies. spaghetti and meat. etc. usually half the jar a day along with part of a veggie or fruit container. I've never given him the straight meat puree jars. they kinda creep me out for some reason.

    I'd love for him to eat regular meat but he's still gagging on it.
