What Do I Feed My Baby? -The What ,When, and How Much of Solids - Blog Entry15 Oct 2009 09:42 PM Hi, I was wondering if someone could help me or give me their opinion. My step sister feeds her baby spaghetti and meat balls with spices in it. We can smell the garlic in the sauce when we open the jar of home prepared spaghetti for her, and there is definately ground beef in the spaghetti. The baby is 11 months, and she has been feeding it to her for awhile. I know spaghetti with mild sauce is ok for some babies, but she seems to have a bad reaction to it. She has horrible diaper rash all the time. She has also been fed bologna, which doesnt seem like a good idea to me. The baby doesnt have any teeth yet, and I just dont think her body is ready. My step sister wont listen to us when we tell warn her about these things, even though my mom has had 5 kids, and has taken care of many other children besides her own. They only feed her baby formula "as a snack" now, and are giving her only their own table scraps, because they have also stopped buying actual jars of baby food. I take care of the baby all the time, so I change her diaper. I can tell that she is not digesting the food correctly because you can identify undigested beans and other foods in her diapers. I am concerned about the baby's development and growth, and overall well being. Can someone tell me if I'm just crazy for thinking that these things are bad for her? Or tell me I'm right :D Thanks! |
