Day 1 of Potato & Carrot Puree

Today is the first I am introducing carrot to my boy. I think if giving him carrot puree on its own it will taste weird. So since, he has already tried potato puree before and without any allergy, I decided to mix the carrot puree together with the potato puree. I used baby carrot. I steamed the potato and carrot together and then grind/blend them together. I added breastmilk to thin the puree.





Schedule for Today:

Morning (8 am to 9 am): Breastmilk

Noon (11 am to 12pm): Potato & carrot puree, continue with breastmilk as and when needed

Afternoon (4pm to 5pm): 3 tablespoons of rice cereal with breastmilk & breastmilk as and when needed

Night (after 6pm): Breastmilk



Allergy Reaction:

No allergy reaction observed.



Texture of Food:

Same as previously.



Amount of Food:

The amount of food is 3 tablespoons of potato & carrot puree. Add breastmilk to thin the puree.



Baby reaction:

Baby hates the taste of carrots.



Notes:

Only gives carrots when baby is 7 months old and older.
