8 suggestions for menu for babies aged 8-10 months

Unlike when babies are 8-10 months old, they will have a better chance of coming into contact with a variety of foods. Mom also has more "land" to try cooking! Let's take a look at the delicious dishes below

Unlike the warm-up period, the snack menu for babies between the ages of 8-10 months will vary in the amount of food available. Children can eat more green vegetables and fruits, as well as additional protein from fish meats. In addition, compared with 6-7 month old babies, baby food will now be thicker and lumpier so that they can develop their chewing skills. For babies who can chew and no longer reflex to stick their tongue out, mothers can practice feeding them foods in the form of lumps. However, mothers should be careful when feeding this form of food to avoid choking. Processed weaning foods can also be “good candidates” for babies in this age group.

Babies aged 8-10 months will have more options

Prepare baby snacks, note what?

- With foods like pasta or vegetables, mothers should cook softly before pureing. Some types of fruit you can feed your baby at this stage include mango, banana, avocado ...

Protein-rich foods such as egg yolks, meat, fish ... need to be cooked softly before grinding and cutting into small pieces. With dairy products, mothers should only choose those that are easy to digest.
