i used the osterizer to gring it is a good make...when you make for krish are you making it granular or like powder please let me know.
Priya sweety replied. tahnks hetal and priya. Priya i guess u r rite that our babies have small apetite.
hetal i talked to his ped his weight is ok acco to his height he is 25% in wt(18.12lbs). they told to give him extra calories ...yogurt cheese butter kind of stuff.
i m concern abt his milk intake this is not for one day that he takes only 2 onces ...this is every day rutine. he never wants to drink rite after solid feed. i always try to give him 2-3 hrs after solid. i read that they need 20-24 ounce milk thats y little worried.
will call to ped and will ask abt whole milk ..see what they say.

chalo then
love to dylan and nirja,
sweety


hetal replied. hi sweety, sorry, if m interupting,,but have somethings to tell,,hope you dont mind...

check on his growth, as far as he is growing fine, i dont think you should worry about it. wat does your ped say about it !
i would say that after taking prperly solids, which is to mention, 8-12 tblsp of cereals plus 4-8 tblsp of fruits plus 4-8 tbslp of vegies+2 servings of toasts or biscuits or ne snack, and 4tbslp of meat or meat substitute or ne source of protein(for us, its lentils ),,,if he eats all this well, his formula intake should be minimum 18-24 oz in whole day/night !!!!! now this is the range,,our babies are somwhere 9 months so their intake will b starting from 4 tablspoon !! hope u git my point...

dont expect him to drink when he is eating well ! this is exact words of my dr.. also sometimes during growth sprt, babies often want to eat more and drink less,in that case, wait for a day or so to get in normal course.
for nirja,she takes all in solids, and after taking a good meal she doesnt ask for bm or formula. and i dunt expect too,,their tummies are of the size of their fist !! how much can we fill in...but after 3-4 hours of meal,she takes upto 4-5 oz, which is acceptable...and after 2 hours of good cralwing and exercise, which i make sure she does it,,,she wants to eat,,and she will not take milk !

so i would say count it that way ! prev i was also worried,,but its like we eat properly,,do we drink milk or water !!! no right !
same way it works for them. also, sometimes infact many time nirja skips her meal, and often takes milk or now formula, so i give her that way....
we too do it that way sometimes,,once a week,,watch your diet,,you will find, there is one day or so, we eat less :),,,just the way it works for them,,,
check on his growth, weight, height, developemnts,,and check on his interest of eating and drinking !! and talk to your ped.

love
Hetal sweety replied. hi priya,
good to hera that he likes that khichadi. actually he eats little granular. grinded got finished so noe a days i make in cooker. for grinding need to buy good blander. some says coffe grinder is good for grinding dry things.
if dylan doesn't eat granular then let him eat fine powder one then gradully u can start little granular.

tell me one thing krish doesn't like formula takes 2 ounces after 3 hrs gape. so i was thinking that how soon we can offer whole milk. i m really worried abt his milk intake.he is eating solid well.

what 3 solid u give him...how should we offer yobaby as a meal or snake...pls let me know and how much?

swety
