Parenting is one of the toughest jobs there is. Starting from what we feed them to how we dress them, what values they imbibe from us, what we teach them and so on. Every little thing we do has an impact on their growth and development. For a newborn nothing is better than breast milk, after 6 months along with breast milk give your baby purees made up of organic fruits and vegetables. Organic baby food is the best option for babies. Organic food means foods that are grown without artificial pesticides or fertilizers.
• 100% organic means exactly what it sounds like, it is made up of 100% organic ingredients.
• Organic means made with at least 95% organic ingredients
Organic food products are the best options for babies and toddlers in their formative years and beyond.
Now let's see some benefits of giving organic vegetables to your baby
1. Organic food contains fewer herbicides and pesticides
2. Organic food is GMO-free
3. Organic food is fresh
4. It is rich in nutrients

When it comes to babies, there is no compromise all parents want to give their babies the best that they can give, be it clothes, food, lifestyle, or standard of living. Babies should be given purees made up of organic fruits and vegetables, you can also give vegetable soup to your baby, but do not add salt to it as babies need only 1 g of salt a day, and which they already receive from mother’s milk.

When you do start giving your baby solid food, it should definitely be organic. However, if your baby is breastfed, you do NOT have to start your baby on solid foods as soon as they are six months old. For at least the first TWELVE months of a child's life, the ONLY thing they need to ingest is breastmilk. It is actually beneficial to wait that long, and to preserve their virgin gut with its ideal culture of microbial flora. Even during the child's second year, solid foods are just to play and experiment with. The child should still be getting most of their calories from breastmilk. If you're going to feed them solid food, always breastfeed first and then offer the solid food. :) :1bftot
