Need some ideas for feeding 10 month old ?

Question

My son is 10 months and is still breastfeeding. We sit him down and offer him food three times a day but i need some ides of what to give him he won't eat baby food of any kind just the gerber snacks. What are some things I could make for him in small quantities to keep his nutritional needs met?

Answer 1

When i know i'm making something my daughter can't eat or doesnt like i just bake a squash with apples and cinnamon and she loves it!! I cut open an acorn squash take the seeds out fill with diced apples and sprinkle with cinnamon. Put an inch of water on the bottom of baking dish and fill the squash with water cover with tinfoil and bake at 400 for about an hour. After it's done i cool and cut into little squares and she eats it all by herself. It's nice to have something in the fridge in case baby won't eat what we're eating.

Answer 2

you could try peas, pieces of bread, steamed and diced veggies, diced soft fruit (bananas), cheerios, he can even eat yogurt and cottage cheese if he will spoon feed for you.

Answer 3

My son is 9.5 months old and he eats his bottle and gerber veggie and fruits. He doesn't like the Stage 2 dinners because the are thick and they gag him. So he eats those 3 times a day and he has gerber puffs as well... But my doctor said for me to try him on some of our food if I want too. So tried mash potatoes last night and he gagged. So she said if he is gagging try once a week. And if he continues it's ok because some babies aren't interested in it until 11 months of age and sometimes a little older. So keep trying to offer your son some other types and see what he does. At this age he should still be getting Breast milk not whole milk! My sons doctor said at 11 months I can try whole milk but really recommend 1 years of age. But try cut up chicken or banana or something like that since he doesn't like the baby food. Just make sure there small for him! Good luck to you!

I would say feed him real food. If you like it he's going to like it. Also becareful of the spices you used when cooking for him. I know many have suggested hot dogs... just be careful and make sure to cut it in half long ways because that is the number 1 food choking hazard. Hotdogs are the perfect size to choke a child. Feed him whatever you're eating and eat together. Make food time fun for him. He will eat.  

Answer 5

apple souse

Answer 6

mashed potatos with salt and butter and milk  corndogs my  baby loved those anything else you eat that he would be ably to chew too

Answer 7

mashed potatoes, bite sized pieces of chicken, turkey, etc.  Cheerios for snacks, applesauce, yogurts, cereal bars, any veggie/fruit, pancakes, waffles...

My son is 9 months and pretty much eats whatever I eat.

Answer 8

don't give him baby food. he's too old for it. give him real foods like fruit cups, hotdogs, and mashed potatoes to start. you'll have a harder time getting him to accept alot of things because he's still nursing, he should be on the bottle or begin weening him onto whole milk so that he's on that exclusively by his first birthday.

Answer 9

you should be feeding him real food already, not baby food. He can have spaghetti, bread, corn, peas, carrot slices, i mean feed your baby!  

Answer 10

what do you eat for dinner?

say you have chicken green beans and mashed potatoes

just cut them up into really small pieces and feed them to him

he's bound to like it you can also cut it up and freeze it in and ice cube tray covered in plastic wrap and give then to him later
