Does anyone have any good recipes for baby 9mths as she is a little bit fussy with what shes eating?
Answers:
Blended vegetables (from 6 months)
Ingredients
(finely chopped)
1 small potato, peeled
1 small piece pumpkin (peeled)
1/2 cup carrot, grated
1 small piece green leafy vegetable (broccoli, zucchini, lettuce)
Method
Using a steamer or saucepan, bring a small amount of water to the
boil. Add the vegetables, cover with a tight fitting lid and cook quickly
until vegetables are soft. Press vegetables through a strainer or puree
in a blender or food processor. Offer the new food at the beginning of
feeding time when your baby is hungry. This will increase acceptance of
new flavours.
2. Fruit pulp (from 6 months)
Ingredients
Fresh apple, pear, peach, apricot or dried prunes
(stones removed)
Method
If using fresh fruit, wash, peel, core and dice.
If using dried fruit, wash, dice and soak in just enough water to cover
fruit for at least 15 minutes before cooking.
Place fresh fruit or soaked, dried fruit and any remaining liquid in a
saucepan. Add just enough water to cover the bottom of the saucepan
and cook quickly until fruit is soft.
Press pulp through a strainer or puree in a blender.

1 tablespoon cornflour
250ml milk

Recipes for babies
Remember…
• Only use ingredients your baby has already tried.
• Babies and children do not need special foods. By 12
months, they can eat the same meals as the rest of the
family.
• Use expressed breast milk or infant formula instead of
cow’s milk in recipes for younger babies.
• For most children, cow’s milk may be used in recipes from
nine months.
I've never eaten a baby at 9 months. What do they taste like?.
Malt-O Meal w/fruit.
Pumpkin mash..cut up pumpkin and potatoe into small cubes, boil, (no salt), drain, little butter and mash...my sister loved this
You might want to check her for allergies - the fussiness might be her body reacting.
Understand that a baby might have to try a food 9 - 12 times before they like it, so don't give up right away on a food.
cheerios are good, because she can pick them up herself and put them in her mouth - the fascination with that often helps.
My god you savage!!, give her some time to develop tastes before you decide to cook her...
:-)
Boiled potatoes and squash, ad butter and mash it together. They love it!
Get the Annabel Carmell book, it's fabulous.
Beef Cassarole.Beef cubes, carrot, potato, onion and dry parsley. Brown the onions and beef, then add the veg, tea spoon of parsley, boiling water and cook in the oven for and hour and half on 180 degrees.my son loved it and very healthy.Then blend it and freeze into portions x
eating babies.sick! ive not seen recipies for 9months old babies.sory for being normal lol
both my kids loved organic porridge with jam or ground cinnamin
also sweet potatoes r great for babies steer clear of dairy though cos its v hard for them to digest a single bit of cheese would leave my youngest not eating for days.also try not giving her so many of her milk feeds especially a few hours before you want her to eat proper food so that she has a chance to get a bit hungry. they only have little tummies which are filled up easily
My baby is 9 months and he is now fussy with his food because he wants to eat our food. So I just cut up whatever we're eating and feed it to him. Then I feed him some of his baby jar fruit, and a yogurt if he's still hungry.
There's a good receipe website where you can make your own food:
My one son was also a fussy eater. Rather than tear my hair out and make him sit down and eat at specific times, I used to have a plate out at a level he could reach. I put healthy treats on like carrots, pieces of cheese, hard boiled eggs etc. When he felt like it, he just grabbed something and munched away. You may want to have more a routine, but this worked for me. I knew that he was eating healthily even if it was not a formal meal times. Today he is strong young sixteen year old who eats me out of house and home. We eat together as a family every night so his errtic eating habits have not affected him in this respect.
Good luck.
Mashed potatoe mixed with Philepelphia cheese and ham chopped up and mixed in. My litle girl loved it. Also try doing spaghetti with grated cheese and a little bit of butter. They like picking it up. I also found that feeding at the same time as I am eating with something that looks very similar to what I am making for her works really well. Also let her feed you as this will encourage her to eat her own food. Good Luck!
this can be a bit of of a "trial-and-error" situation, but at that age she's getting bored of the same old goo that looks exactly the same when it comes out one end as it did when you put it in the other end. (sorry for the horrie's mental images, but if you're a mom you know *precisely* what I'm saying).
She's learning about the world around her at that age - one of the ways to learn is putting things in her mouth - sometimes you'll be horrified, but trust me - you did it when you were a toddler, too.
She'll adore fruit and vegetables - you'll probably have to puree it until she's got a mouthfull of teeth but she'll still enjoy the textures and flavours (kids get bored very easily, even with their food).
I'm guessing she can't talk yet, but she will have ABSOLUTELY NO DIFFUCULTY communicating to you that she likes carrots and hates caulifower (or whatever her personal preferences are).
Enjoy your child - It's one of the best adventures you can have.
I think you need to remind yourself that you are the parent. If you let her be fussy now it will only escalate as she gets older. I gave my daughter the same foods we ate, only without the salt. Purred carrots, Swede, pear, apple, pumpkin, banana, well blended meets, Potatoe, sweet potato. I don't agree with shelf foods, anything that lasts that long can't be right. My daughter is now a very healthy eater, wherein my partners son is a nightmare. Chicken and chips only. It may take her a while, she is only just learning to eat foods and its a new thing for her to grasp. feed her the foods and then go back to them if she isn't' to sure, bottled milk and breast milk taste quite sweet compared to our foods. remember though NO salt or added sugar and you are the parent, what you do now reflects later.
Good luck -

Make it interesting. Turn the food game into fun like the flying jet spoon in the air that has Ravioli in straight into the mouth,.
At 9 months, your baby can enjoy quite a variety of foods and, if she's a picky eater, you might want to try finger foods as she may prefer feeding herself. Try this link - http://www.homemade-baby-food-recipes.co. which gives guidleines on which foods to give at this stage plus lots of recipes.
