Feed a baby is not easy: it is necessary to constantly keep in mind that the products should be safe for the child to be useful and of course, delicious. But it is when it comes to adult children, that is about kids after year. When feeding infants and the introduction of the first weaning food taste goes by the wayside.
So vegetables for a first meal, as we discovered, should be useful and safe. And most nutritionists recommend at this time to pay attention, especially for vegetables.
What vegetables should be chosen for weaning? Of course, those who do not provoke allergies and cause discomfort in the stomach. These include zucchini, cauliflower, broccoli.
After introduction of the trio can be administered vegetable and other foods including potatoes and familiar.
How to choose the vegetables for the first meal? There are a few rules to follow that you can secure a reasonably peaceful transition in feeding from breast milk to solid food.
The Council first - the market
If you're buying vegetables at the market, then look for sellers who sell vegetables from their gardens. Most people who grow vegetables for their own needs, offer a truly eco-friendly products without all kinds of chemicals. Well, if you know that the family of the grandmother grows little grandchild, then the vegetables, of course, it will be the best.
When buying, choose young vegetables, without damage and rot. Sometimes it's better to overpay a few hryvnia, but get the goods of the highest quality - in fact on baby do not save.
Tip Two - in store
If you're buying vegetables at the supermarket, then it is better not to take those who are far off on the shelves. The fact that you do not know how they were grown - where and on what grounds. That is how they chemical additives, you also do not know. Therefore, for the urban residents have one piece of advice, which is used by the majority of mothers - buy frozen vegetables, but well-known trademarks. Most often, large companies still are responsible for their products.
The first solid foods - is stressful not only for the child but also for the mother. Therefore we remind once again: if you decide to try complementary foods prepared for infants, not faint with the thought: "How can you have?" In children at this age do not have the concept - tasty or not. For them the main thing - it is useful and safe.
Broccoli puree
We have already seen that the first solid foods - a very important stage in a child's life. Therefore, mothers should thoroughly prepare for it. First, selecting the right vegetables to weaning, and then picked up no less than the right recipe.
Most moms and doctors recommend the first solid foods to introduce broccoli. This green cabbage, beloved by many women for a gentle and not aggressive enough flavor, will not cause the child's allergy. And really good for baby food.
Preparation: broccoli thoroughly rinsed under running water and put in a bowl of a double boiler. Steamed for 20 minutes. We obtain and thoroughly mash with a spoon and fork. When a child will have a little more, the broccoli can be milled with a blender.
We recommend: During the first feeding is better to feed the baby a little bit like a little sparrow. And it is better, if the cabbage is slightly warm. Do not worry if the baby does not want the first time to eat a quarter of a spoon cabbage. Do not force. Sometimes, in the first times the baby simply feel a modicum of unknown food in his mouth. So is his acquaintance with the world of adult food.
