Meats?

Question

Anybody started giving their baby meats yet? Our pediatrician said that we can start giving our daughter meats since she is six months now. If you do, do give them the meats from the jars/containers from gerber? Or do you make your own? Just needing some ideas. Thanks!

Answer

I've been cooking my own- I use the crock pot a lot bc it makes the meat sooooo soft and I usually shred it so she can enjoy something other than puréed food for a change!

Answer

BLW chicken

Answer

I make my own, I boil chicken and then purée it with mashed sweet potato 😊

Answer

Depends on what we are up to that night. If we are out, we usually bring the easy to eat ones that are prepackaged. Otherwise, we pre-chew the meat we've made so that she doesn't choke.

Answer

I've been giving my son some chicken and pork he's almost 8 months, I just chew it a little bit and he loves it, he had not problems with meat yet.

Answer

I give my daughter tiny little bits of chicken or pork usually just right off my plate. I mean, tiny tiny portions. She sort of sucks on it and gums it a bit. Tried a chicken blend baby food and she did not go for it. But we usually do a purée and a bit of what we are eating for lunch and dinner for a little baby led weaning.

Answer

Do you guys season the food before giving it to them? Like you would with yours? Or just keep theirs plain?

Answer

My daughter is 7 months and we attempted to give her meat from a Gerber jar and she hated it! I'm going to try and give it to her mixed with some veggies next time to see if she likes it any better. If not, I'll try making my own

Answer

I purée chicken and turkey but it's very grainy so I add some breast milk to it, also add a veggie like puréed carrots or yams or squash etc to sweeten up the meat
