My daughter loves bananas and I figured it would be cheaper just to mash some up the fresh ones we have in the house. But I don’t know the best way to do it.

Should I mix formula and cereal in with a banana?

And it doesn’t have to be limited to bananas, what other foods would be food for homemade baby foods?

I have a chance to buy 4 cases of 12-4oz jars apple, bananas, and peas plus about 15 extras for 15 so I am wondering if I should go for it or not. When did you start baby foods, what was the first one, and how long did you use them for?

We’ve been feeding him a 4 oz jar of food every day. Is that too much? Not enough? Or is that about right? If so, should I feed him the whole jar at once or half in the morning and half at night? Or a third of the jar three times a day? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I just recently got my baby to start eating cereal. She used to keep spitting it out. She still will not eat baby food. I’m worried that she is too dependant on formula. How do I correct this and how do I ensure she is getting enough food and nutrition? How much baby food and cereal should she be eating at six months of age? Any advice is appreciated.

Best answer:

Answer by GGM’s Alter Ego: Mizz Beezy
I am going to have to say I would not recommend any cereal. It causes severe gas and constipation in babies, and has little to no nutritional value. Babies can survive and thrive on breast milk and/or formula for a year, and even more than a year. So it’s not a bad thing that she’s dependent on the formula. But at six months, i would start to try to introduce regular people food that you could mush with a food processor.

What are some lunch ideas I can pack so she can take to her daycare, other than the Gerber Graduates microwavable lunches, soups, etc? The daycare has requested that I bring food for her to eat. I need good, healthy lunch ideas. Not just snack ideas, please.
