  • Ice cream

The safety of ice cream will depend on its composition; opt for a dessert that is free from dyes and preservatives.

There is, of course, nothing better than homemade ice cream, but if you decide to buy a ready-made product, we recommend using ice cream.

  • Pastila and marmalade

Pastila should be made on the basis of pectin, and marmalade in general has no contraindications, but in stores it may contain dyes.

  • Condensed milk

The product will saturate you for a long time, it contains a lot of sugar.

  • Halva
Begin to introduce halva on HB into the diet very slowly and in small quantities. There is a risk that the child will develop allergies. After all, halva is made from sunflower seeds, which often cause reactions.
  • Sweets

Choosing natural sweets without chocolate. In this case, it will be easier to cook them yourself from caramel and dried fruits or nuts.

Be sure to carefully look at the composition of the sweets, and then make a decision: the presence of preservatives and dyes automatically makes sweetness unsuitable for a child, and in stores, unfortunately, more and more natural products are made by default with such harmful components.

Try homemade sweetness so you know exactly what ingredients you put in there.

 Homemade sweets can be given to a child in the first month of life.

Sweets for a nursing mother in the second month

Some permitted sweets for breastfeeding can be introduced into the diet only from the second month of a child's life, for example:

  • Condensed milk,
  • Halva,
  • Almond,
  • Jam.
All of the treats listed above are difficult to digest or contain potential allergens.

If you decide to try something new sweet, limit the first portion, then carefully monitor the baby's reaction. It can appear both immediately and the next day. If the introduction of the new product went well, then you can allow yourself more portions in the future. Good luck!
