10-12 Month Baby Food Routine
This is a very interesting age group for both babies and parents. Till now from 6 months onward the baby has tried many different types of foods and they have adapted to the new food world. The babies in this age group will be very eager to crawl around and search for things to put into their mouths. They like to chew as they will be teething. Till now they will have at least 6 to 8 teeth.
Important Tips:-
- When the baby wakes up start the day with a few sips of lukewarm water.
- Try to give the food in mashed form. Avoid pureed form.
- Try to avoid Maida too as it is hard for the baby to digest it.
- While giving pasta or any other food item check for constipation in babies and avoid it if the baby gets constipated and give it later when his stomach develops slowly.
- Babies at this age sleep for 12 to 14 hours a day.
- Give milk to the baby before or after a nap.
- Avoid salt, sugar, honey, egg whites, spices, and whole milk.
