Lo HATES yogurt

I've been trying to introduce yogurt into DD's diet (we've only done fruits and veggies so far). She has loved everything else I've given her, but yogurt she absolutely refuses after the first bite. I tried blueberry YoBaby first, and thought maybe it was too sweet or tangy. I finally found plain YoBaby (large container only) and when I tried to give her a taste she gagged so much she threw up - 3 times in a row! Seriously, large amounts of vomit everywhere. Poor baby; I felt so bad (and poor Mommy - I was covered in it!). So do I just forget about yogurt completely? Or mix it into things? We have so much full-fat milk in our fridge now and I'd hate to waste it.

  • Have you tried cheese?

  • We haven't tried cheese yet. Just cut up into bite size pieces I'm assuming?

     

  • We tried yogurt by itself, and he hated it....after a week or so we mixed in some Gerber oatmeal cereal and he now eats it every morning
  • We tried yogurt when she was about  7 months old and she made an awful face and gagged. I got the squeezable greek yogurt with fruit and she loves those. She's not very good at squeezing just a small amnt out so I do it for her but maybe try those.

  • Maybe try mixing it with applesauce or another fruit purée

    I would give it a break and try again with yogurt in a couple of weeks. DS has the same reaction to avocado (puked it everywhere!) but when I tried again about a month later he loved it! As far as cheese I buy the block of Cabot mild cheddar and just cut it into thin strips for him to hold. 
    DD had the same experience with avocado.  

    If you want to you can try mixing the yogurt with fruit, otherwise you can wait a couple weeks and try again.

  • My DD likes the yobaby blueberry but hates greek yogurt. I would say maybe try other dairy like shredded cheese, or small slices of cheese off of a block and make sure it isn't a dairy intollerance. Then if cheese isn't a problem maybe try the yobaby in a month or so.

  • Thanks for your advice, everyone! I tried some cheese today and DD wouldn't touch it. However, I gave her some pieces of toast with green bean puree and she loved it. Apparently my baby loves vegetables and hates dairy - no idea where she gets that from!!

    I will wait a little while on the yogurt and try again, probably mixing it with fruit.
