The Big Banana Story

Hey Mommies! It feels so relaxing to see your baby eating well. Same is the case with me. I am satisfied with Srija eating Kidilac and Potato 🥔 Mash. So, I am excited to Introduce a fruit to her. As people say, if we will give banana mixed with milk, then it can help babies gain weight. So, here I am sharing what I did:

Recipe #14:

INGREDIENTS

1/2 Banana 🍌

1 spoon breastmilk

METHOD

🍌 I took half banana 🍌 and mashed it using a fork.

🍌 Now I mixed my breastmilk to it and further mixed it well.

And she liked it!😀 Like her dad, it seems that banana 🍌 will be her favourite too. But then, I observed something unusual. I saw her poop, it was black coloured thread like worm shaped poop. Seeing which I got scared that she might have got worms in her stomach. So I discontinued banana 🍌 and straight away went to doctor to consult. He said it normal. Banana 🍌 having too much of fiber can cause thread like poop but don't discontinue it. Rather, we can give her the small sized bananas 🍌 because they are better for babies.

Please note:

👶 Always make small portions of baby food when introducing it for the first time.

👶 Don't worry if your baby doesn't eat much. Even 2-3 spoons are enough for 6 months old baby.

👶 Always use sterilized utensils for small babies.

👶 Whenever giving a new food to the baby, do a three days test. Give it for three days continuously and observe.

👶 Wash your hands with soap before preparing baby food.

👶 Use stainless steel bowl for serving.

👶 Use a round-edged plastic spoon to feed your little one. It will not hurt their gums. I used a Tupperware spoon. (If anybody wants to order any Tupperware product, then feel free to contact me)

👶 Never introduce a new food when the baby is very hungry. They might reject it.

👶 Even if your baby can't sit without support, feed her/him in the sitting position. Never feed them lying down.

👶 Give a sip of boiled water before and after the food. It will prevent constipation.

👶 If you notice something unusual after introducing anything new to your baby, discontinue and consult your doctor first.
