5 Tips for Introducing Solids – MommyCon

As the mom of an increasingly busy baby, it is in your best interests to keep things on hand to simplify your life. Once you begin introducing solids to your little one, it is a great idea to keep a variety of healthy starter foods on hand. Veggies, Fruits, Meats, Iron-fortified cereal and whole fat yogurt are wonderful staples to keep around to stimulate your baby’s ever expanding palate.

Key Takeaways:

  • If your baby gets the sweet taste of fruit before less-sweet (and sometimes slightly bitter) veggies, it doesn’t mean she’ll reject them. Just continue to serve them both every day.
  • Be sure all meats are well-cooked (and well pureed at first).
  • If you’re making your own baby food, be sure to wash all fruits thoroughly, even if they’re organic

“Instilling an appreciation of and taste for veggies is important. Vegetables are packed with vitamins, minerals, and fiber, so they should be mainstays of the diet for life.”
