His first food was khichri. Mixed reception lol. He loved fruit and veggie purées, and rice, veggie and chicken all boiled, mushed up and softened. Yogurt was a big hit too.

Baby is not going to like most of the food but you have to keep shoving it :slight_smile:

mashed: banana, apple, kihichri with chicken soup etc makes good start-up food and once teeth are poking, give him to hold onto carrot…

Re: Baby’s first foods

Thanks guys, baby is very anti-food. Can’t believe this is my child lol.
she does like yogurt so I have started mixing the food with yogurt. It is going down better. How often do you feed the baby?

Re: Baby’s first foods

Re: Baby’s first foods

Lol ^

I started off with once a day and gradually worked up to a few times. I mean they’re still experimenting with texture and their taste buds are developing too- just go slow. And it’s good to take a break. They do say spend three days offering the same foods and then move on to something new to make sure you rule out any possible allergies but I just went with whatever. I was too impatient I guess :stuck_out_tongue:
