white or brown bread?

[Celesse]

best of both / 50:50. I was told at a weaning course I did when LO was about 6months that we shouldn't give them wholemeal until 2yrs + as too much fibre takes up space in thier tummy that they could use for digesting stuff. Its one of the rare occasions I've followed advice of a professional without actually looking it up myself.

When she gets to 2 I'll try and switch to brown and hope OH doesn't notice.

We use both now. He doesn't seem to notice the difference.

White. He is a veggie baby and gets a lot of fibre in his diet anyways, so I didn't want to overload him so give him white bread, pasta, rice etc. However, we eat brown bread and I do sometimes give him a bit of my toast and he eats that fine so he will eat both. I'll switch him to brown bread when he's 2+.

This is what i was told too so i switched from seeded batch or oatmeal to best of both/50:50.

I used to buy brown everything (pasta, spagetti, rice etc) but switched to white when Alfie started weaning. I cant wait to get back to brown stuff lol

[CormacksGirl]

Best of both here!

 

[Lu28]

I use both

Zachary gets constipated eating white bread and misses his daily poop, so he only has brown.

Probably doesn't help that he loves to wolf down bananas too though lol!

Wheat. We don't buy white.

 

[JASMAK]

I don't think my kids even know white bread exists...we use 'brown' but not whole wheat...we either eat the 12 grain, or honey nut, or I make a lovely oatmeal bread. White is too boring....although I do like to get sourdough at restaurants.

 

[MilitaryMummy]

I buy best of both or 50/50 as it's what i have, but if i choose to have brown or we visit people who have brown then she will just have that.

We usually give her brown, mainly because I've had it drilled into my head over the years by my mum that brown is better for you

 

[DebzD]

Wholemeal normally (I never heard anything about them not having it till 2yrs+ think some googling may be needed!), but if we are out somewhere and they only have white or brown then it's white!

 

[slf2010]

The girls have mainly white or best of both but would have no problems giving them wholemeal xx

 

[lisa9999]

Charlie loves brown seeded bread (some strange nappies though ) He won't touch white!

Yup same here, and same problem too!!!

 

[xx~Lor~xx]

Both! I prefer brown, OH prefers white, so we mix it up a bit

 

[sparkle_1979]

brown as it's what we have
