Anybody know nutrition guidelines for infants? |
Like how many servings of fruits/vegetables, grains, dairy, protein,etc. an eight month old baby should have? I feed Emma usually yogurt and cereal in the morning and sometimes an egg. For lunch two vegetables and a fruit. For supper it is usually something we are eating. If we are having lasanga or mac n cheese I give it to her and she loves it, but I feel guilty even though she had veggies for lunch. http://www.babyzone.com/parenting/nutrit... Here's a list of what to feed an 8 to 10 month old. I didn't give juice till one year, and then only once a week if that, per my doctor's suggestion. At 8 months, the majority of her calories should still come from breastmilk (or formula). Don't feel guilty about only having veggies once a day because breastmilk has all the vitamins/nutrients they need for teh first year even if that's the only thing they ate. However, do make sure that you're exposing Emma to a variety of veggies, so she learns to like them, as it will be important later. Also, the frozen peas/carrots mix or cubed sweet potatoes make great snacks. It sounds like she's eating just fine... Beware; most guidelines you read are either written by baby food companies,* or heavily influenced by same. Common sense -- healthy food and a balanced diet -- and you're fine. |
