Most babies are weaned at amongst 4 and 6 months. Current World Health Organisation (WHO) guidelines commend a full 6 months of breastfeeding before introducing solids, but a heap of parents find that their babies are ready for a little amount of feed before that time. Medical counsel gives evidence of that babies’ digestive system is too immature to cope with solids before in regards to 17 weeks but after that their appears to be little proof of any gain in delaying the introduction of solids (in produced countries). So having waited until your baby is ready, what ought to you give them to eat? Our counsel is to keep it simple; gradually introduce a range of pureed fruit and vegetables such as pear, carrot, green bean, sweet potato and parsnip. Once you have tried a range of single flavours you may commence experimenting with interesting compoundings – why not undertake pureed parsnip, apple and swede for example? Try to use organic vegetables and fruit wherever possible. Parents in the UK may find that they are entitled for the government backed fresh start out system which provides families with vouchers to redeem versus the cost of fresh fruit and vegetables and it is surely worth investigating whether you qualify for this scheme. Another great tip is to steam and puree bulk quantities of fruit and vegetables at once and freeze them in ice-cube trays so that you may mix and match to fabricate your recipes later on. A microwave is valuable for quick defrosting. Listed beneath are our five favourite baby feed purees suitable from 4-5 months of age:
Sweet potato, carrot and courgette puree Sweet potato, swede and green bean puree Mashed avocado and apple puree Broccoli, pear and pea puree Carrot, apple and parsnip puree If you follow the counsel above and freeze single flavour purees in ice cube trays then it is easy to experiment with these and other flavour combinations. As a rough guide 1kg of raw vegetables or fruit will invent around 25 frozen cubes when steam or boiled and then pureed. After a month of combining fruits and vegetables in this way your baby will be ready to move on to more complex flavours including a little meat. We’ll shortly publish our top five stage two weaning recipes as well! Good luck and get pureeing!
