  Complete Nutrition !!

  Nutritionally Tailor Made Food !!
• Perfect amount of proteins, fats, vitamins,
  mineral, water and enzymes for the baby.
• The LACTOSE present in breast helps in the
  absorption of iron and calcium.
• Contains all essential fatty acids that are
  needed for the growth of brain, eyes and healthy
  blood vessels.

If your Lil One is 6-12 Months Old
Mothers- Get Ready for Another Role !!

• Your baby is starting to eat foods for the first
  time she will need your support and care. At
  first the baby will eat slowly and may make a
  mess.
• Only one food should be introduced at a time.
• Follow the 4 day-rule
• At first, the child may push the food out of her
  mouth. This is because they do not know the skill
  of moving it back to their mouth and swallow it.
• Never force feed your baby, if your baby dislikes
  a particular food, do not force feed your baby.

• Commercially processed foods may be convenient
  but they are not as nutritious as homemade foods.
  So I strongly recommend to not giving convenience
  food rather give family foods in mashed or pureed
  form.
• Serve your baby in a separate plate or a bowl.
• Give your baby variety of foods. It makes it more
  appealing for the baby.
• If you notice any sickness or paleness in your
  baby after a particular food, it should not be
  given as she may be allergic to that food.
•  
• Encourage your baby to eat, by talking playing
  with her, paying attention and showing love
  interest love and affection.
•  
• Encourage all family members to sit together with
  the baby.

If your Baby is a Fussy Eater !!

• Be a good role model.
• Make sure that the food you serve looks
  interesting.
• Encourage self-feeding from a young age
• Find a food he will eat from each food group.- If
  your child doesn't like milk, try offering
  yoghurt or cheese.
• Make sure that your expectations are realistic
• Serve child-size meals- He can always ask for a
  second helping!
• Look for ways to boost the nutritional value of
  the dishes your toddler enjoys.
• Minimize distractions at the table.
• Structure your child's eating so that she has
  three regular meals a day and two healthy snacks
  in between meals.

• Associate nutritious foods with his favourite
  Cartoon Characters like Popeye eats Spinach.

  kids, serve them foods in different colour and
  shapes.
