TF and LO's

post #1 of 11
Thread Starter 
What are you feeding your LO's besides BM? Preferably those that are between 12-18 months? DD loves eggs cooked in butter or raw cheeses but they're making her constipated and nearly everything makes her plugged up anyway.

My ds will eat coconut oil by the spoonful and chopped up pastured butter. He also seems to like lf veggies - even cortido and kimchi, which we make pretty spicy. And, of course, most all soaked baked goods - oatmeal, pancakes, muffins, etc. He'll eat eggs, but he doesn't LOVE them like he loves some of the other stuff, same with cheese. He does really like yogurt and kefir, tho...

My DD is 10 mo., but her favorites are ground beef, chicken, avocado, banana, scrambled eggs, raw cheese, yogurt with fish oil mixed in (it's nasty but she loves it), and almost any veggie with butter and salt.

I would recommend reading Real Food for Mother and Baby by Nina Planck if you're wanting some more insight into how to feed your babe a TF way.

My youngest loves soaked oatmeal with cream and butter --and she insists on feeding it to herself

She also loves heavily buttered bread, cream cheese in a spoon (or scraped off of a cracker with her teeth), and glasses of whole milk with a shot of cream added.

She also loves cod liver oil. I give it to her in a spoon and she slurps it up. Prunes, meat, avocados, bone broth, any veggies cooked in bone broth, she loves them all.

Thanks mamas

We don't eat gluten otherwise i'm sure she would love bread and butter. I'm waiting for my arrival of clo...hoping DD will easily take that
I need to try CO with her but there are days when it doesn't agree with me so I have avoided with her.
I just finished Nina Pancks book and I really enjoyed it but wanted to hear others menus

I have this from the library and have only started reading the pregnancy section, but I love it so far!! I never got around to reading Real Food, but I really like her style.

Another book that addresses feeding babies and kids is Healing Our Children by Ramiel Nagel.

Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride also has some good guidelines for introducing solids.

Can you tell I've been researching this subject?

We are grain free/starch free/sugar free... DD eats meat stock, meat soups (duck, goose, chicken, beef with veggies in it), avocado, homemade ghee (she has had problems with dairy, even raw dairy), fish, nutbutter pancakes (cashew butter, zucchinni, egg yolk, fried in duck fat), egg yolks, saurkraut. I'm really happy with how well she eats. My almost 3 year old is another story... some days I have troubles getting him to eat anything!

Oh yeah, and I wanted to say that we follow a lot of what Dr. Natasha Campbell-Mcbride has to say about feeding babies... She really has some great stuff!

DD2 is almost 15 months. She loves yogurt, banana, apples, ground beef, sausage, scrambled eggs, green beans made with bacon fat, soaked whole wheat breads and muffins, organic corn off and on the cob, and popcorn. Sometimes she will eat chicken, pork and a fried potato. That's about the extent of her diet other than breastmilk, water and diluted juice.
