hi gals,
Have been so busy recently din get much chance to log in to kaypoh...
Talking about weaning, my ger started at 4mths on the instruction of PD (cos she din drink lots of milk). PD suggested first food to be white rice cereal cos she says least likely to cause allergy.
For me, I started with BM+white rice cereal which i progressed to roots (cos they are sweeter, like pumpkin,potato) and vegetable (such as spinach avocado broccoli) before starting on fruits and meat/fish... I also let her try other types of cereal (organic ones brown rice, barley). mixed wheat cereal aft 9 mths.
Be careful with the amount of sweet potato you give bcos it causes wind in tummy. I only gave my ger sweet potato after weaning her for abt 1/2 year. Because green vegetable puree not very nice, you may wanna mix them with pumpkin. ;p
For fruits, apple pears are best fruits for weaning.I also gave her peach, plum, etc (psst my fave fruits). For fruits, gotta wash them clean, steam them WITH skin (to keep vitamins) until soft, then puree them. i read that Banana puree cannot be frozen...
Weaning is pretty fun actually.
So have fun!
