Fruits for our kids:
* how often u feed ur child fruit in a day
<font color="0000ff">Lele gets fruits max 3 times a week or none when we hear a cough. Oh, but he eats 6 to 9 cherry tomates each day, if you consider those fruits</font>
* if u are giving apple, pear, grapes n plum, do u just like them bite the slices or making them fine paste?
<font color="0000ff">we cut fruits such as apples, pears etc into thin slices and let him hold and bite. For softer fruits like Kiwi, we scoop up pieces using teaspoon and put into bowl for him to self feed. For banana, we let him bite off direct.</font>
bite the slices/whole : how long they take to finish the portion?
<font color="0000ff">he can finish quite fast, in a few mins, but that's cos he only chew abit then swallow:S cos he wants more. Always have to remind him to chew chew chew...</font>
* do u feed ur child fruit everyday?
<font color="0000ff">nope. when he has cough or cold or phlegm, we stop all fruits cos I once heard a chn phy advice no fruits at all during child's cough. When he is wel, it is about 2-3 times a week..., each time about 2-3 thin slices of fruit</font>
