True Story about What My Mom Fed Me

1)  Prune juice popsicles

2) Vegetable milkshakes

and for a special treat, a spoonful of peanut butter.

I used to have to sneak down to the neighbors to get some sugar or white bread.  But I never got sick as a child, and have a pretty decent immune system to this day.

Any strange concoctions that you feed your babes or your mom fed you?

Off to try out this "just add water" all nat dry dog food for the Crick...

PS:  big shout out to Happy Baby - friend of mine that I met three years ago at a Net Impact event in B-school... she now has a very cool all natural baby food company... Happy Baby - awesome concept, awesome product! go Jess (and Shaz).

The easiest and cheapest way to feed your baby is off your plate, as it's been done for hundreds of years. Breastfed babies don't NEED adult food until they are 6-9 months old (cereal at 4 months is just a lazy way to keep a kid fuller longer and probably start them on the road to allergies too). At 6-9 months, an infant sitting in your lap will be grabbing food from you. Let her have it in small portions (and make sure it's soft or otherwise appropriate food - rice, mashed potatoes, various well-cooked vegetables, little bits of salad greens, etc.) Voila! Baby food! Of course, some things must be chewed for the baby first. It might disgust you to chew food in your mouth and then take it out and give it to the baby, but it's exactly what she needs. Your saliva, which is more chemically complex than hers, will have started to digest the chicken or steak or whatever and will make it digestible for her. I promise you that the baby will love it and you will get over your little gack factor quickly (after all, if you are otherwise exclusively breastfeeding, she will already be immune to all your germs!) Baby food grinders are b.s., just another gadget for scared first-timers. I use mine now to grind ingredients for small batches of sausage! I think I used it exactly twice for baby food -- my daughter and I both thought the results were gross. She could handle soft baked sweet potato at 9 months and didn't need it pureed. Pureeing food takes away all the fun textures!
Thanks for your information on this page. It’s definitely useful to learn more on a subject of your interest to make us more educated for certain topics. I think its important eating organic; it is a healthy contribution to our bodies. Check this link for more on this topic http://www.organic-food.cooking-food-recipe.com/Organic-Baby-Food.php
Thanks for the useful information. I agree with the posters above that breast milk is the ideal food for a young baby until the age of 6 months. It has many benefits including optimal nutrient content, fights infection, is a natural contraceptive, etc. After 6 months though it is very important to supplement breats milk with semi solid foods. Having said that I dont think that mothers who are unable to breast milk for medical reasons or because they are not producing enough milk should feel guilty as it is not their fault.
Liver is one of the most important organs of the body that participates in body cleansing. Bile secretion reduces if toxins start accumulating in the liver,. The cleansing action performed by the liver drastically deteriorates as a result of which the liver becomes a store house of toxins in the long run. It very critical that you liver must be maintained clean. So periodic liver cleansing is absolutely essential Regards, Richardson drug tests
Hahaha I work at a major chain restauraunt (the largest casual dining restauraunt) and have also worked for most of the other top 10 (think restaurants named after fruit+bugs and days of the week), and haha the lemons are the least you need to worry about. If you go out to eat at a busy restaurant on a friday night, trust me - all health code rules go out the door. I have been in the business almost 20 years and most of the places I have worked would make you never want to eat out again if you saw the kitchen. Cooks who never wash their hands or change the one pair of gloves they wear all day, grabbing raw chicken then putting that same gloved hand into the bin of french fries. Garbage all over the floor and counters, just a total disgusting mess in general. Now when you go out to eat at 3pm on a wednesday afternoon your odds of a clean meal are a little better, but when the pressures on, the business is boomin - the managers are so worried about trying to get the food out quickly that for the most part sanitation is non existant. Next time you think you have the 'flu" think to yourself, "did I eat out last night?". Good chance its mild food poisoning if you did! Regards, Richardson

I believe this aspect is growing everywhere as business owners learn what it is. For example, Phoenix is much more sophisticated in this regards than here in Tucson. I average small business owner is still way behind in their understanding such incidents. fighting wheat allergy

You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty. It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare.

Thanks for the nice post! You can also feed your baby with rice cereals. Rice cereals contain many of the nutrients and vitamins that babies need. These include iron, zinc, and other vitamins. Usually, rice cereals come in pre-cooked packs. That means all you need to do is to add warm water, and the cereal is ready to be eaten. Another great benefit of rice cereal is that it contains fibre, which helps remove stool. Constipation is a very common problem for babies because they have smaller and weaker digestive systems. In fact, it can be painful for the babies. The stomachs tend to be bloated when there are digestive problems. With a constant diet of rice cereals, the fibre actually helps with the digestive process.
thanks for sharing your story., your mama really loves you.
really awesome work done
