a reminder: what to feed baby food from 6 months

a reminder to myself what I fed seth

from 6 months
carrots
pumpkin
potato
apple
pear
rice
parsnip
red rice cereal
organic rice & quinoa
* he does not like nestle rice cereal. gags at it.
* avoid peas - caused running nose for a week


9 months
brown rice - boiled for 45 minutes, let it rest for extra hour before serving
frozen spinach (sparingly due to potential nitrate)
sweet potato (not too much)
celery
peach in can
quince in can
kombu (soak in rice water for 20 minutes, then removed.)
*kombu is dried kelp - use organic source. can be reused up to 3 days. Used only 1 inch long for 1 pint of water.


11 months
onion
garlic
salmon - teeny weeny bit
soft japanese rice - trying out new textures
cauliflower
broccoli
a bit of green beans in can

1 year
teeny weeny bit of chicken
scallop - a tiny bit in porridge @ friend's home : caused mild rashes on neck
a bit of egg yolk - under doc's advice due to upcoming MMR injection at 1 year old. glad no negative reaction.


Reminder:
Don't bother to feed baby dried scallop or unclean stuff. It caused my own lips to swell - unless I want to have lips like bridget bardot for a few hours.

Vaccination watch outs:
. for the first injection, he had mild fever, below 38 degrees for few hours
. for second injection, he had feer for longer hours, below 38 degrees
it happened in the late afternoon on 3rd day for both occasions, instead of day 1 & 2.
