Feeding Your Baby Thanksgiving Foods – Is it ok to feed babies Thanksgiving foods?

Is it OK to Offer My Baby Cranberry Sauce or Cranberries?

Cranberries tend to be acidic and as such, are not recommended as a “starter’ food for babies. As cranberries are not related to strawberries or other “berries” such as blackberries or raspberries, they do not follow the “no berries until 12 months old” rule.

You may wish to introduce cranberries between 9 and 12 months old so as to avoid any possible reactions due to the acidity. Reactions may occur in the form of rashes around the mouth or bottom.

Always keep in mind that a bite of a food may not prompt a reaction however a “full” serving may. Read more >> Cranberries for Baby Food

Can My Baby Eat the Pumpkin Pie?

Pumpkin Pie typically contains whole eggs and evaporated milk.

Many pediatricians will say that for the non-allergic baby of 8 months or older, baked goods with whole eggs are fine. The same advice is true for milk products. Milk in a baked good recipe is fine for the non-allergic infant of 8 months or older. (Please remember that milk is NOT appropriate as a replacement for breast milk or formula until a baby has reached the age of 12 months or until your baby’s pediatrician indicates this is appropriate.)

If you would like your baby to have a Thanksgiving treat and wish to serve him a wee bit of pumpkin pie, consider the above and as always, consult with your pediatrician.

Is Gravy OK to Offer my Baby?

My inclination is to not offer babies gravy during Thanksgiving. Homemade Gravy is made of starches and the fatty drippings from the Thanksgiving Turkey pan. Jarred or canned gravy contains a variety of un-pronounceable ingredients that may not be good for your baby.

Keeping this in mind, if you wish to offer your baby a small drizzle of gravy during Thanksgiving Dinner then feel free to do so. If you baby is prone to digestive upsets, we would recommend using a very small amount or none at all. As always, you should consult with your pediatrician about offering your baby foods that may not appropriate for baby’s stage.

Turkey, potato and carrot stew is very easy to prepare. The children's dish turns out to be light and satisfying, I had to make an effort to tear the baby off the plate. At first he ate with a spoon , then he smoothly switched to a finger grip and finished everything with his hands. Turkey stew is not salted, prepared without spices. I had an idea to put dill at the end, but it disappeared under the onslaught of two children. Just so run that forgot to put in the dish. Garlic will also feel very good in turkey stew, just a drop, for flavor. But again, optional. The dish is not fried, but stewed, this is important, the fire is very small and everything must be extinguished.

Turkey, potato and carrot stew suitable for 10-12 month old babies who are familiar with potatoes, carrots, turkey and onions.

Dish is perfect for the common table . It could be prepared in large quantities for the whole family, but I don’t have enough turkey, so for adults, pork rib stew, and turkey stew for baby. Since the adult dish was prepared in a slow cooker, most of the time was spent peeling vegetables, and not preparing the dish itself. I try not to fry the meat, but to stew, so if someone cleans the vegetables, then everything else will be done in 10-15 minutes .

I remind you , we eat together with the baby, the same food at the table, the baby sees that food is the same for everyone, it is very important for other family members, they appreciate it. In this way, we maintain and maintain food interest.

Turkey, potato and carrot stew suitable for babies over 10-12 months .
