Win Baby's First Solids from Babymama!

As a first time nanay, isa sa mga milestone na pinakaabangan ko talaga is yung pwede ng kumain ng mga solid food si bebe, para hindi na lang puro dede ko at daliri nya ang panggigilan nya hahaha. Pero bago po natin pakainin ng mga solid food, dapat daw is nameet ni baby lahat ng mga requirements or nagpapakita na siya ng mga signs na ready na nga sya. Sa ngayun po dahil mag 3 months pa lang bukas ang aking anak, patuloy lang ako sa pagreresearch kung anu nga ang magandang unang ipakain sa kanya. Kaya naman pag dumating na ang araw na yun para sa akin dahil siya ay mayroong magulang na health conscious, mahilig sa gulay at prutas, at hindi pihikan sa pagkain aba syempre dapat ganun din ang baby namin. Kaya hahandaan ko po sya ng mga masustansyang gulay gaya ng patatas, broccoli, carrots. Prutas gaya ng apple, banana, peras, avocado. Pwedeng pureed or mashed, pakulo lang at walang mga pampalasa. Pwede rin po mag lugaw walang salt hahaluan ko na lang ng breastmilk. At dapat dahan dahan lang ang pagooffer ng food para di sya mabigla at magsawa. Saka dapat wag agad iba iba ang ipakain para madaling matukoy din kung may allergy siya sa pagkain. Basta dun lang po ako sa mga natural na food at hindi processed or synthetic na pagkain. #BabyMama

Before introducing solid food to our child we should always check out first for the signs of readiness for solid food. If your child can already hold their head up and sit upright in a highchair, shows significant weight gain (doubled birth weight) and weighs at least 13 pounds, can close their mouth around a spoon, and can already move food from the front to the back of their mouth then your child is likely ready to try solids. You can try these solids : Breast milk or formula, plus Pureed vegetables (peas, squash) Pureed fruit (apples, bananas, peaches) Pureed meat (chicken, pork, beef) Semi-liquid, iron-fortified cereal (avoid rice cereals; instead choose a cereal made with oats or barley) Small amounts of unsweetened yogurt (no cow's milk until age 1) As you introduce solids to your child you must also learn about the difference between choking and gaggling and the proper ways to deal with it. Always remember that breastmilk would always be the best for babies up to 2 yrs. old. 💗Mommy Nhel🫰 #BabyMama

Ang mga unang pwdeng ipakain kay baby kaapg tumuntong na sya sa 6 na buwan ay ang mga sumusunod: 1. Gulay: patatas, broccoli, kamote, carrots, ampalaya 2. Prutas: peras, saging, apple, Eto ay base sa aking karanasan sa unang anak ko. Sabi sa akin ng Pediatrician nya, na kapag mag introduce ako ng pagkain, ay dapat isang klase lang muna para malaman ko kung may allergy sya. Kaya ganun ang akin ginawa. Unag solid food na pinakain ko ay ampalaya, next ay malunggay, medyo hinuli ko ang prutas kaya di sya gaano kahilig sa matatamis. At yung mga sumunod na buwan saka ko na introduced ang mga itlog, yogurt, manok, pork. Una ginagawa ko ay ni ssteam ko ang gulay, tapos ay ni ma masshed ko. Sa mga prutas naman ay hinihiwa ko ng maliliit yun tipong di sya mabubulunan. Ngaun 3 years old na sha, marunong na sya kumain mag isa. 😊 At excited na rin ako kasi malapit na ko manganak sa January. Kaya kung ako ang manabalo dito magagamit ko ito sa baby #2 ko. 👶🥰 #BabyMama

My baby just turned 6 months yesterday. Nakapag-consult kami sa pedia last week at based sa advice ni Doc, pwede na kumain si baby pero paunti unti muna at simulan muna ng once a day. Ang unang pinakain namin ay SQUASH. Steamed tapos mashed/blender. Ngayong second time kumain ni baby mas nagustuhan nya. Ang iba pang food na pwede ipakain kay baby ay potato,sayote,kamote,avocado,or papaya as long as walang pampalasa like sugar and salt. Sabi ni Doc try muna namin pakainin ng same menu for 3 days at wag muna mag mix ng ibang food para kung may allergy ay mas madali malaman kung saan food sya allergic. Looking forward talaga ako sa araw-araw with my baby especially ngayong nakakakain na sya. Treasure natin moments like this Moms,cause ang balis ng panahon,one day sinusubuan pa natin sila sa pagkain,and then,sila na mismo bibili ng pagkaing kakainin nila 🥰 #BabyMama

My 2nd born just turned 6 months! And I know that this is her most awaited milestone because finally she'll have her first solid. But before introducing solids to your lo's please note the signs of readiness. My little one had a banana as her first solid since I can't find any avocado in our town. Why avocado? They are rich in fiber and healthy fats. They're great first food for babies. Unfortunately, can't find one so we opted for banana. If you're hesitant what kind of food to offer, you can search it on #TheAsianParentPh. Mostly, foods such as avocado, banana, sweet potato, broccoli and squash are being first to offer! Also, you need to offer that certain food for 3 days in a row to check if your baby has an allergy on it. Make sure that the foods that you offer are soft, easy to chew. Let your little one explore and enjoy on their first solid! #BabyMama

As a mom gusto natin lumaking healthy at hindi pihikan sa pagkain ang ating mga anak, hanggat maaari ay binibigay talaga natin lahat ng best natin para maprovide yung mga needs nila. Nung mag 6months si baby ang first food na pinakain ko sa kanya ay Avocado💚 nabasa ko sa isang article na isa daw to sa ideal food for baby's first solid, makakahelp din talaga ito sa growth and development nila. So far, simula sa eldest until now sa baby bunso namin ay ok na ok naman ang appetite walang pili sa food at sobrang hilig sa fruits and vegetables. If first time ka make sure lang na do a research para mas aware tayo sa kung ano ang pwede sa kanila and kung pano natin ito maipprepare ng tama. Siguraduhin na ioffer natin kay baby ang nutricious and healthy foods, tamang laki lang ang cut's, and yung soft or easy to chew😊 #BabyMama

Since my baby is still below 6 months, I don't have experience yet regarding feeding infants with solid food. But I constantly read and research so when the time comes I can feed her, I have basic knowledge na. Based from my research, If the baby can sit upright, that's the time you can feed him/her solid food. It can be on their 6th month, 7th, etc. The best solid food you can give them are those prepared at home, may it be pureed/mashed vegetables or they can be cut into smaller pieces if you want to do Baby-Led Weaning (BLW) and well-cooked meat for protein. You may also incorporate your breastmilk or formula milk for an added nutrition. I am planning to do BLW for my baby, and thanks to The Asian Parents community, I can learn and share from experiences. #Babymama

As a first time mom, super basic lang ang alam ko kapag nag 6 months na si baby. Pwede na syang kumain ng solid foods at uminom ng water💪. D ko pa sya thoroughly na research, pero upon Reading the other comments of my co-moms sa pa contest ng Asianparent Ph, madami akong natutunan😍abt what foods are allowed and not. Kudos mga momshies and thank u for sharing ur knowledge, expertise and experience. Babalik balikan ko mga comments nyo. 💗 PS gaano kadami mababawas sa paginom ng gatas ni baby kung mag so solid food na po sya at 6m? Worried po na d makuha ng sapat na sustansya s mga solid food na ibibigay ko😬 Pure formula po si baby EZ ko. Thanks po s sagot. #Babymama

NO to: honey, salt and sugar and look-out for food allergens such as peanuts and soy. Kung may G6PD si LO, make sure na wala tlgang mhahalo na bawal sa food nya lalo na below 1yo. Puree: -Boiled apple -Boiled carrots -Chayote and spinach (no salt) -Chayote and malunggay (ground) Mashed: -Banana -Sweet potato -Corn and carrots -Avocado Pancake/ nuggets -Banana and Oats -Apple puree and Oats -Salmon and malunggay nuggets -Chicken nuggets (ground chicken with carrots, brocolli and malunggay) #Babymama

Little solid food is all that my baby requires. I include vegetables that aren't as sweet, like broccoli and cauliflower, in addition to the sweeter ones like carrots and sweet potatoes. This will help my baby become familiar to a variety of tastes. This may help him avoid developing into a picky eater as he gets older. Sugar and salt shouldn't be added to food for babies. Sugar can cause tooth decay, and salt is bad for babies' kidneys, so they shouldn't eat it. In order to identify the root of my baby's allergy, I also learned that if the baby is to be fed, only one type of fruit or vegetable should be consumed throughout the day so I can avoid it next time. #BabyMama
