Green food

[Brockie]

i have just started giving Fred some solids, doing carrot at the moment which he loves and just done a batch of broccoli and pea?!

what green veg recipies do you guys do? really want him to get used to veg before i do fruit xx

I did peas and then green beans first. I would really hold off on brocoli for awhile as it can be really gassy....here is something that you can look at

Broccoli is not a good choice for one of Baby's first vegetables as it may cause gas and may be a bit hard for a young infant to digest. Broccoli is best given to an infant between 8-10 months old. If your baby has had any digestive issues, it would be best to introduce broccoli into the diet later rather than sooner! As always, we recommend that you consult with your baby's pediatrician on introducing solid foods as generalities may not apply to your infant.

Asparagus is another that you should wait for the same reason. I think really the only greens the boys had until closer to one were the peas and green beans, I was the same way about making sure they had lots of veggies, more than fruit and trying them all first though too.

We started Hannah with peas and than went on to green beans and broccoli.

I have given Jasmine brocolli and cheese, she is almost 7 months and is just fine with it... I've only recently started.

At 4 months peas are really an excellent food... they are easy to digest. I'd stick to peas, sweet potatoes and squash etc.

When I began weaning I did apple, peas, sweet potatoe, squash, pears and rice cereal first as those things are the easiest to digest and the least likely to cause allergy.

Ive never had a prob with her having fruits and veggies, she eats it all.

Hebe LOVES broccoli and cauliflower with cheese sauce! She's had spinach too and was fine. Asparagus make a lovely green finger food.

Oh avocado is a great first food, great food in general for babies

 

[Mervs Mum]

Yeah! Avocado is great!
