^Cottage cheese is a great introduction. You can mix it with avocado or just put it on bread. Bread and butter is also another breakfast option. Definitely introduce yoghurt now. Just mix it with the fruits you give him. My ped told me anything goes except for peanuts, honey, fish and eggs. But I cheated and as soon as she turned 9 months introduced her to eggs! Actually I had been giving some egg yolk since she was 7 months coz yolks are so nutritious. Now I scramble an egg in butter and put a tbsp of cottage cheese in it. It turns out really good.

egg yolks are fine once they’re past 6 months; with egg whites you have to wait until they’re 1. also for fish, its usually the shellfish you have to avoid but you can give white fish like tilapia with no issues.

my kid hates cottage cheese- i tried mixing it with different things and he wasn’t having any of it. he’s also not a fan of avocadoes but luckily he seems to like the other stuff masha’Allah so its ok.

gtg, we buy our cheeses from the deli section of the supermarket. and yes, definitely introduce yogurt to him now too.
