Hi Indu...
No Luck with barley and ragi whole...Thank god i brought some extra packets or ragi flour atleast from bahrain. Oat also i didnt find so finally i took quaker oat, as it doesnt contain anything else i think this should be fine for kids too... What do u say??? Well no worries coming weekend i am going to bahrain for visa renewal may be that time i will get more and everything.
Hey share how do u prepare sprouted ragi porridge.. i dont sprout but soak and grind it and then seive and make it.
Have you started with sugar, jaggery or salt for your lil one. what all have you started. has some teeth appeared. My kido is teething. She make me worried some time. Very fussy in eating... i have to keep dancing and running after her to feed her. :)

I stay in Mansoora area. Ya i was asking for votes for my dd. She stood 2nd.
Hey whats the update of Tom. What all activities he do?? Also tell me which all edu toys u have taken? do you have a baby sling? I am planning to take one.. Suggest me some good brand which will make my both hands free while carrying her... Now a days she dont want to sit in stroller at all... i m looking for another alternative...

take care.
luv to Tom.

Ha the world is so small, i living very much near to mansoura, in mumtaza.
I have bought peralbarley for my self not for my kid. And whole raggi you get it in FFC as i told before.If you come to my house i will give u some :)
Do u get oats specially for kids in Bahrain, i was mentioning about quaker oats itself, but havnt tried for my baby.
Sprouted ragi the best, easy digestible and nutricious, no much work to do, wash ragi well 5-6 times,take a clean cloth and spread raggi in it, keep for 24hrs, sprouts wud have come, just give few pulses in mixie, seive and cook in water stirring continously thats it, the same thing after sprouting u can dry in sun/roast and powder and store in airtight containers for 1-2 weeks.

No sugar/jaggery or salt, thought wil start after 1 yr, hw old is krisha, nice name by the way.2- teeths are just showing up. he is not al all fussy during feeds, rather he loves food, so i am lucky.
No idea about sling, mine sits in stroller if he is full and has finished his nap, other wise he becomes fussy and have to carry hom, never sleeps in stroller, i envy when i see kids sleeping peacefully in pram.
Tom has very little toys to play with, i make his toys educational by my self, like making him put toys 1 by one into a big jar, or something like, make him pick th toy and keep on the cot like stuff, i dont buy much coz which ever toy i pick up it will have not for 0-3 yrs :-)

Do u get the oat meal which hetal and all mentions there in bahrain.what else food do u buy for baby, i havent even given gerber, i prefer preparing myself than buying ready made ones.

guess this is a big post ;-))
