Dairy mixtures

The very first complementary foods are a milk mixture, so it will begin the differentials of it, 6 months, from 1 year old, as well as nutrition for weakened children, designed to gain weight.

For newborns

If for some reason the mother does not have milk, mixtures come to the rescue, which replace it. They are as close as possible in composition to women's milk, although, of course, nothing can be compared with breastfeeding. The ranking presents the 2 best mixtures: based on cow's and goat's milk.

Kabrita 1 based on goat's milk for comfortable digestion

Kabrita 1 formulas are designed for healthy babies from birth to 18+ months. Modern formulas and the benefits of goat's milk promote comfortable digestion for babies while maintaining protein integrity as tender goat's milk does not require additional modification for easier digestion.

Nestogen (Nestlé) 1 (from birth) 700 g

From 339 ₽

The budget formula based on cow's milk differs by its incomplete composition and concentration of useful substances in comparison with other manufacturers, but it is very well absorbed by the child's body. It does not cause colic, and the stool returns to normal with constant use.

BIBIKOL Nanny 1 with prebiotics (from 0 to 6 months) 400 g

From 1 049 ₽

A good infant formula that helps babies who are prone to allergies gain weight. It consists of various vegetable oils, maltodextrin, fish oil in microcapsules, which are not found in all mixtures for newborns. But not every store sells it.

6 to 12 months

2nd step milk formulas no longer have the soft texture of newborns. Bifidobacteria are included in their composition, the norm of vitamins and microelements is growing, as well as the nutritional value of drinking. Stage 2 blends are free of salt, sugar, GMOs, and artificial colors, but contain soy lecithin, starch, and coconut oil.

Similac (Abbott) Gold 2 (from 6 to 12 months) 800 g

From $6.99

This formula contains 2'-FL oligosaccharide, which is found in breast milk and helps develop the baby's immune system. According to parents, already 2 days after switching to Gold 2, stools return to normal in children, rashes (if any) stop. In general, a very good cow's milk blend with the addition of soy and soy lecithin.

Nestogen (Nestlé) 2 (from 6 months) 700 g

From 339 ₽

A good, hearty formula based on cow's milk, which is suitable for healthy babies, has the best quality-price ratio. Most children respond positively to it, with no manifestations of allergies or bloating. The clothespin spoon will not be lost: convenient.

From 1 year old

Almost every manufacturer of infant formula has formulations designed for babies over 1 year old. They are not so close in composition to breast milk, but become more like whole cow or goat milk. However, complementary foods are enriched with mineral and vitamin supplements and are more caloric than regular milk.

BIBIKOL Nanny 3 (from 1 year old) 800 g

From 2,090 ₽

An excellent mixture to saturate the child's body with the necessary substances and feed the child. If the baby is allergic to cow's milk, then Nanny will be the best, albeit expensive, substitute. Children are given it in the morning or in the evening, and the dry mixture can be stored for up to 3 years.

Nutrilon (Nutricia) 3 Premium (from 12 months) 800 g

From 655 ₽

I improve metabolic processes in the body of babies, helping to gain weight faster.

For weight gain

Babies born with poor vital signs need to eat better to catch up with their developmental peers. For infants with reduced body weight, leading manufacturers have created milk formulas enriched with protein supplements. It is also more high-calorie, but it is still well absorbed by babies.

NAN (Nestlé) Pre (from birth) 400 g

From 700 ₽

High-calorie baby milk based on cow contains enzymes that help the weakened stomach break down nutrients. Moreover, there are a lot of them in the mixture. But the downside of high calorie content is increased gas formation.

Similac (Abbott) NeoSure (from birth) 370 g

From 700 ₽

A very rich formula of the zero stage of complementary foods meets the most stringent requirements for baby food. The ash in the mixture for weakened children absorbs excess gases, enzymes help break down nutrients, and prebiotics maintain normal flora in the gastrointestinal tract. But kids get constipation from it.

Puree

Baby puree fills the need for protein and helps to adapt to the adult diet. The first purees are always homogenized, without lumps. For older (from 1 year old) age, fruit or meat porridges may contain small lumpy fragments.

Turkey Fruit Nanny (from 6 months old) 80 g, 1 pc.

From 47 ₽

Simple in composition (turkey, rice, vegetable oil) puree is not liquid and smells good. It is claimed to be soy-free, but there are reports of soy allergies in connection with the start of complementary foods. Therefore, we can assume that the manufacturer is cunning.

Tema beef with rice (from 8 months) 100 g, 1 pc.

From 33 ₽

Meat puree with rice and sunflower oil is packed in a can. To open it, pull the ring. But few of the babies at 6 months will master all 100 g of porridge in 1 sitting, and there is nothing to close the jar. These are all cons.

Porridges

When the baby grows up, milk formula alone is not enough. His digestive system is already ready to receive coarser food, so they begin to introduce cereals. So the child is taught to chew and accustomed to eating at a common table.

Fleur Alpine dairy-free oatmeal (from 5 months) 175 g

From 159 ₽

This one-component porridge enriched with vitamin B1, made from oatmeal, is recommended for children from 5 months. It is satisfying (428 kcal / 100 g of flakes) and quickly saturates the child. But because of the simple composition, it seems completely tasteless.

BIBIKOL milk BIBIKASHA buckwheat with goat milk (from 4 months) 200 g

From 307 ₽

Rich in composition porridge made from buckwheat flour with goat milk after cooking does not smell like goat, but dissolves without lumps. Vitamin-mineral complex and prebiotics help the body to better absorb it. But not every parent can afford to buy such expensive complementary foods.

Dairy products

Milk is useful because it contains calcium, which strengthens children's bones. But getting a child to drink at least a glass of milk is not so easy. Parents come to the aid of dairy products, which children drink much more readily than regular milk.

UHT Agusha milk (from 3 years old) 3.2%, 0.925 l

From 80 ₽

Long-term pasteurized cow's milk in a Tetra-Pak package can be stored without a refrigerator, and nothing will happen to it. But only until the opening, and then - in the cold. Agushi's designers made sure to keep the baby busy while mom is cooking.

Milkshake FrutoNyanya Raspberry (from 1 year old) 2.1%, 0.2 l

From 27 ₽

Sweet cocktail with a volume of 200 ml is recommended for children over 1 year old in the amount of 50-70 g at a time. After opening, be sure to store it in the refrigerator for no longer than 1 day. Because of the flavor, you need to monitor the reaction of the child: if there are any allergies.

The best manufacturers

The Russian market offers a wide range of baby food, both domestic and imported. Some manufacturers concentrate on the release of a limited line (for example, powdered milk formulas), while the other tries to expand the offer as much as possible. Be that as it may, the most important selection criteria are safety and benefits for the child's body.

Nestogen (Nestlé)

A world leader in the food market, Nestogen produces infant formulas enriched with prebiotics, lactobacilli. The composition of the product is well balanced for maximum absorption by the child's body. Ingredients include demineralized, skimmed milk, vegetable oils (excluding palm), maltodextrin. However, formula is not suitable for children with lactose allergy.

BIBIKOL

The company offers a wide range of products for children from birth, as well as pregnant women who are intolerant to cow's milk. Her cereals and milk formulas are based on goat's milk, and the combination of flavors of mashed goat's curd is sometimes confusing (tomato and sweet pepper from 9 months or banana, pineapple, muesli and yogurt from 6 months). Nutrition for growing gourmets requires prior consultation with specialists.

Similac

Similac baby food is sold in the middle price segment. Products do not contain GMOs, contribute to the normal functioning of the gastrointestinal tract, compaction of the child's bone tissue. The quality of the mixtures is not inferior to premium brands, and the assortment also includes formulations for babies with sensitive digestion.

Nutrilon (Nutricia)

A Dutch company with 120 years of experience producing complementary foods for babies from birth to 3 years of age. Nutrilon is designed for debilitated, including premature, babies who need to gain weight. For a gentle gastrointestinal tract, mixtures are made exclusively from hypoallergenic products, with the inclusion of prebiotics. Sugar and starch additives are excluded. Prices are quite affordable.

FrutoNyanya

Domestic company offering the widest range of baby food, from fruit and meat purees in jars to juices and drinking water for older babies. FrutoNyanya is the best quality baby food on Russian shelves, and the prices are very affordable.

Tyoma

A subsidiary of the Unimilk concern produces vegetable and fruit juices, meat purees or mixed juices (for example, beef with zucchini). But its dairy products with and without probiotics are in the greatest demand: sterilized milk, biocurd, biolact. Hypoallergenic food at an affordable price has one drawback: the variety of tastes is not so great, otherwise there are only pluses.

In conclusion, it is worth remembering that combining artificial foods with breastfeeding causes colic in babies, as their ventricles are still learning to digest different types of food. Introduce complementary foods gradually so that the child's body has time to get used to the new food.

Baby food at home: recipes, videos

The growing up of a little person is a delightful process that cannot but please the parents of the crumbs. However, the first feeling that mom and dad face when it comes time to introduce complementary foods into a child's diet is confusion.

Which food is the most healthy, hypoallergenic and delicious? Most often, the first "real" meal of the crumbs after mother's milk and formula is vegetable or fruit puree. The choice of baby food on store shelves is very wide - each manufacturer tries to convince the buyer that jars with beautiful labels contain only natural products, there are no dyes, sweeteners and other harmful additives. A variety of "meals" for babies in factory packaging marked "3+ months." does not guarantee the true usefulness of the product that is inside. Every mother understands that complementary foods prepared on her own, from natural products, are much better for her child.

Another advantage of making your own baby food is that you can choose the best ingredients, wash fruits, berries or vegetables thoroughly, peel them well and remove damaged parts. In addition, the parents of the crumbs themselves can choose the way - how best to cook baby food: food can not only be boiled, but also baked in the oven or cooked in a double boiler.

It is also important that home-made baby puree is much tastier, it will undoubtedly be useful for a growing body and will not cause allergies! Even the simplest children's dish, prepared by mom, keeps the warmth of caring hands and cannot be compared with expensive dishes from the store.

What should be the correct complementary foods for children? Of course, you should start with one ingredient (such purees are called one-component purees), then move on to more complex options. Experts emphasize that the most suitable product for the first "dish" is zucchini. Cauliflower can also be considered neutral. Gradually it will be possible to introduce carrots, pumpkins, potatoes, broccoli and green peas. At the first stage of the introduction of complementary foods, it is better to give preference to vegetable purees and switch to fruit purees when the child already treats “serious” food well.

The basic rules and principles of preparing high-quality baby food yourself:

it is best to take fresh products for preparations: fruits from the tree, berries from the bush and vegetables from the garden are much healthier than those that have already been in the refrigerator for a week. If there are no seasonal vegetables at the time of preparation, the use of frozen foods is acceptable, but in this case, try to give preference to whole fruits - they retain the greatest amount of nutrients;
only filtered water should be used for cooking vegetables;
the preparation of baby food requires, if not separate dishes, then thoroughly washed. Do not, for example, cut vegetables on a meat board. If there is a dog or cat in the house, then you need to restrict her access to the kitchen when food is being prepared;
It is not recommended to use vegetables and fruits in the diet of infants, in which the content of chemical additives is consistently high. These often include watermelons and melons, beets, spinach and lettuce;
It is better to soak vegetables purchased on the market with water before cooking: put carrots, potatoes, zucchini and cauliflower in filtered water for a couple of hours - this will remove nitrates;
do not leave excess mashed potatoes for the next meal: the child should be given only freshly prepared food, and "yesterday's" mashed potatoes are best eaten by adults or given to pets;
you can choose cream, boiled egg yolk, grated cheese or finely chopped dill as an additive to puree - this will diversify dishes for children from 8 months;
try it! Children's food can and should be enjoyed by an adult.

There is another question that often worries parents: is it permissible to preserve baby puree and how to do it correctly? After all, such complementary foods for the developing body of a small child must be prepared daily for one or even two or three years: until the baby is ready to eat adult food from the common table. Not every mother has the time and opportunity to prepare baby puree daily, but you don’t want to buy food for the baby in the store. In addition, it is obvious that in the winter-spring period it is almost impossible to find fruits and vegetables grown without the addition of chemicals. The answer to the question is quite simple: the requirements for the conditions for preparing baby food are very strict (keeping the temperature, sterilizing jars, etc.), but using an autoclave solves all problems: all that is required is to load jars with blanks into the autoclave for 20 minutes and set temperature 120 degrees. After cooling, it is better to store baby food in a dark, cool place for about 12 months, daily delighting the child with homemade homemade food.

Pumpkin puree: tender and fragrant

Pumpkin is a delicious vegetable that is good for babies. This fruit has a beneficial effect on digestion, is well absorbed by the child's body and is rich in various vitamins: A, C, B, B2, E, PP, T. In addition, the carotene content in pumpkin is 5 times higher than in carrots!

Baby pumpkin puree has a sweet taste, so the kids eat this dish with great pleasure. For preparations, it is better to buy small whole pumpkins, as they usually taste better than large ones and are easier to peel.

Rinse pumpkin well under running water, peel, cut in half, remove seeds.
Then you need to cut the fruit into small cubes, put in a saucepan and pour water. Cooking time after boiling - 20 minutes. You can also steam pumpkin: it will retain more nutrients with the same cooking time.
The next step is to beat the cooked pumpkin with a blender until the consistency of a gentle puree. If the dish turned out to be thick, add water or milk (milk mixture).
Vegetable oil and salt are added to pumpkin puree to taste, but these additives should be used with caution: only if they are acceptable for the age of the child.

For babies older than 8 months, pumpkin puree is supplemented with other fruits and vegetables, and also added to porridge.

Broccoli puree: simplicity and elegance

Broccoli is not just cabbage, but a storehouse of vitamins and microelements! Beautiful on the outside and fantastic on the inside - the high content of protein and vitamin C (there is more in broccoli than in citrus!) deserves special attention. There are many articles on the Internet about the benefits of broccoli, and preparing this product is not at all difficult.

To prepare this type of cabbage for baby food, you need to choose the highest quality product: the inflorescences must be unopened, green, moderately elastic.

Broccoli should be washed, cut into pieces and boiled. Steaming will take 20 minutes, in water - faster: fresh cabbage should be boiled for a little more than 5 minutes, and frozen - at least 10. When cooking, do not pour a lot of water, it should only cover the vegetables a little.
When the cabbage is cooked, it must be taken out, put into a blender bowl and chopped to a puree state, add a little warm boiled water.
Add salt and butter to taste.

Pear puree: a fragrant dessert

It's no secret that babies love fruit puree - almost all children like sweet dishes. The pear is a suitable option for the first one-component fruit food - a sweet fragrant fruit that has a high concentration of vitamins, stimulates digestion and almost never causes allergies.

If you want to cook a safe puree for your child at home, then it is best to choose green pears, these are the fruits that are considered to be the least allergenic.

Fruit must be peeled, core removed with seeds, cut into cubes.
Transfer the pear to a heavy-bottomed enamel saucepan, add a little water and simmer for 15-20 minutes over low heat.
Then transfer to a blender bowl and puree until smooth. If the puree is too thick, add a little warm boiled water.
You can dilute the dish with milk or formula - it depends on the taste preferences of the baby.

The same recipe is used for applesauce. In the future, try to combine these two fruits in one dish.

Classic apple-zucchini puree

A good appetite of a baby pleases every mother, but little gourmets are often capricious, and it is not easy to please them. Zucchini and apple puree is a classic combination of products that will diversify the baby's menu already in the fifth or sixth month of life.

This complementary food contains only hypoallergenic products, has a positive effect on the functioning of the heart, and stimulates the strengthening of the immune system.

Selected products should be thoroughly washed, peeled, core removed from apples.
Cut zucchini and apples into cubes, put fruits in a cooking pot first - they should cook for 5 minutes longer, and then vegetables. The total cooking time is 20 minutes.
When the food becomes soft, it must be ground to a puree with a blender.
To taste - dilute with water, add salt, oil.

This puree can be considered an independent dish for the little ones or become a delicious side dish for older kids.

Colorful carrot-potato puree

For many parents, carrots and potatoes are the simplest and most understandable type of complementary food for the baby. However, if you cook and serve standard products a little differently than usual, you can improve the traditional taste of a classic dish.

Young potatoes should not be chosen for baby puree - they contain a lot of starch. Carrots, on the contrary, it is better to buy young ones.

Wash and peel the vegetables thoroughly and cut into cubes.
It is better to steam the mashed potatoes and carrots, the vegetables should be boiled separately. Cook until tender, 20 minutes on average.
Separately puree the vegetables in a blender, diluting with warm water if needed.

Both types of puree are beautifully placed on a plate without mixing: the child can decide for himself whether to mix food or eat separately.

Exotic variety: mango puree

Tropical fruits should not be offered to a small child before 7-8 months and only if there was no allergy to other foods.

Mango is an aromatic fruit with an original pleasant taste. This fruit helps to overcome colds, reduce inflammation in the body, improve sleep and normalize the functioning of the stomach.

To feed the baby, ripened fruits should be selected - quite soft, yellow-red in color.

Fruit should be peeled and pitted, cut into cubes.
Put the raw mango in a blender, puree, transfer to a heavy-bottomed pot and boil for a few minutes.

Older children may be offered uncooked mango puree. This fruit is completely independent - no need to add sugar or water!

Sweet pumpkin puree with apple

This puree is called sweet, since both pumpkin and apples are foods with sufficient sugar content. Such a dish is well suited as a dessert for children who already eat “serious” food well - vegetable purees and cereals.

In addition, such complementary foods are a great option for the autumn-winter period: seasonal products contain enough choline, a lot of fiber, natural proteins and vitamins (groups A, B, C, E, etc. ), zinc, sodium, calcium and only!

Pumpkins and apples need to be peeled, peeled and seeds removed, cut into cubes and sent to a double boiler.
Cook for about 20 minutes until the food is soft. Then place them in a blender bowl, add raisins and chop. If the child chews well, mash everything with a fork, and leave the raisins whole.

Hearty puree with celery and turkey

For older kids, meat is added to vegetable dishes - turkey fillet is an excellent option for developing a child's taste preferences. Appetizing and fragrant meat puree includes only three ingredients: celery root, turkey fillet, butter.

The proportion of meat and celery should be approximately 10:1, the amount of butter to your taste.
