Organic Baby Food

 Is your baby ready for solids? There are simple ways to tell if your baby is ready to eat! Your baby is big on body language. When your baby is ready to eat one of the prime signs is that they will watch you while you chew and mimic the action.

Another sign is if your baby is sitting up unassisted. These signs are body language to let you know "I am ready bring on the food!". Of course you never want to give your baby anything processed. Making your own baby food is the best way to go and it is super easy. You can make batches of it and freeze it for later use. Invest in a good blender and use it to create organic homemade baby food!

Babies need to start out with single ingredient foods. There little tummies are not ready for anything too hard to digest right now. Most pediatricians recommend something like rice cereal to start off with. Next it is usually add a fruit to the diet. Veggies are next, than a bit down the road protein. Each new food that you introduce should be introduced in small doses for at least three days in a row to insure that no allergies crop up.

I like this product as a way to store your homemade food and breast milk:
