Day 1 of Cottage Cheese

This is the first time I am introducing him to cottage cheese. The brand of the cottage cheese is Bulla. I decided to mix the cottage cheese with mashed potato and carrot so it will not taste too weird for him.

Schedule for Today:
Morning (8 am to 9 am): Breastmilk
Noon (11 am to 12pm): Mash potato + carrot and 1 teaspoon of cottage cheese, continue with breastmilk as and when needed
Afternoon (4pm to 5pm): 5 tablespoons of rice cereal with breastmilk & breastmilk as and when needed
Night (after 6pm): Breastmilk

Allergy Reaction:
An allergy reaction observed. There was some rashes around his mouth few hours later after eating his lunch

Texture of Food:
Same as previously.

Amount of Food:
The amount of food is 4 tablespoons of mash potato + carrot and 1 teapoon of cottage cheese. Add breastmilk to thin the puree.

Baby reaction:
He is happy with the food.

Conclusion:
Cottage cheese introduction is aborted for the time being till he is much bigger. Next up will be making my vegetable stock and cooking porridge using the stock.

Age:
7 months
