Tips on feeding baby

Just a few things I have learnt during the weaning process.

-Increasing portion sizes by a specific amount will help you to monitor the amount your baby can eat. E.g. starting with 1 tablespoon per meal and increasing number of spoons over time.

-Start with the more textured dish during a feed that may require chewing. The food with bigger pieces.

- Try to cook or cut up vegetables into dishes as a one pot meal as opposed to having them on the side for example Mediterranean rice.

- Use healthy foods for creamy options such as blended legumes or root vegetables mixed with water rather than adding cream or cheese.

- Feed them the same foods as what you would normally have in easy to swallow sizes.

- Offer little amounts of water with food.
