A Few More Foods

Carrots, applesauce, eggs, zucchini, white potato and mango. She doesn't care for carrots but will eat them mixed into applesauce. I think she had a reaction to eggs and zucchini so I'm waiting a while and then reintroducing them. She had a bad rash after the mango so I'm going to wait a long time before giving mango to her again. I've been researching online about giving spices and herbs to babies as well as oils. I'm thinking of introducing olive oil and coconut oil soon. Then I'll start on spices.

Convicted

I've been doing a lot of thinking and reading about nutrition. I want to start eating healthier foods. I'm reading this book called Nourishing Traditions by Sally Fallon. I've realized that even though I eat way healthier than most people, it is not enough. I guess that is where knowing more can make you feel more responsible. My baby girl has motivated me to change my diet as I strive to make hers the best I can.

Fruits and Vegetables

I've decided to stick to fruits and vegetables for baby girl. So far she has had sweet potato, banana, avocado, pear, and apricot. I was thinking of introducing rice cereal but then when I looked at the nutritional contents I realized that it is a lot of bulk without many calories. She has been enjoying her menu so far.
