Description

Hello New Mom!

Why did I create this course?
It is important to give your baby foods that vary in taste and texture, and ultimately represent the foods that the family eats. Really babies should be eating foods that not only taste like the foods that the family is eating but visually resemble them. It is quite a large jump from the appearance of carrot puree on a spoon to whole carrots, so food in its recognizable form needs to be introduced.

Do you think that your baby tastes the food like your taste?
A good rule of thumb when feeding children is to never compare your tasting with your child's tasting because we usually have more flavors, salts, ... and others at our food which are not allowed for the children who are less than 1 year!

Why wait until around 6 months to introduce solids?
It’s a good idea to wait until around 6 months before introducing solid foods because:

  • breast milk or first infant formula provides the energy and nutrients your baby needs until they're around 6 months old (with the exception of vitamin D in some cases)

  • if you're breastfeeding, feeding only breast milk up to around 6 months of age will help protect your baby against illness and infections

  • waiting until around 6 months gives your baby time to develop so they can cope fully with solid foods – this includes solid foods made into purées, cereals and baby rice added to milk

  • your baby will be abler to feed themselves

  • your baby will be better at moving food around their mouth, chewing and swallowing it – this may mean they'll be able to progress to a range of tastes and textures (such as mashed, lumpy, and finger foods) more quickly, and may not need smooth, blended foods at all

Who this course is for:

  • parents/mothers who have children above 4 months old
