Components of essential nutrients considered in the first solid food babies aged 6-9 months. But the aspect of safety and proper procedures should not be ignored.

Babies aged 6-9 months are in the process of learning and knowing his first solid food. So now in addition to breast milk, babies begin to recognize the broader tastes. Because the digestive system as well as eye-hand coordination is also being “learned” there are some things you should pay attention to that is the safety. Notice also the safety factor of infant feeding:

• Never leave your baby alone when he was eating. Therefore, a small piece of food is “wrong entry” can cause the baby choking, and can be fatal. Or, because the coordination of hands and eyes are still not very good, a piece of food or finger could have striking eyes. Then when your babies eat, it has to be in your supervision or caregiver.

• Do not forget to always put the seat belt on the baby’s body so he does not fall, especially if you put him on a high chair eating.

• Never force a baby to eat food that he disliked. Never had also forced him to spend the rest of the food that you have provided for him. Equip natural instinct that the baby is able to measure exactly how much the amount of food the body needs. Gastric capacities infants aged 6-9 months with an average of 130-190 ml each meal or drink.

• Avoid giving tea or coffee to babies. The content of compounds in tea and coffee can inhibit the absorption of iron (Fe) by the body. In fact, iron is needed for baby’s body growing process of developing, among other forms of red blood cells.

Obesity in children is not a funny issue. If the fat condition of child’s body is excessive, he may be suffered from various diseases. So to avoid this problem, make sure the child’s caloric needs are fulfilled. However, how is the way to calculate it?

Generally, children who are over one year old until 10 years old need 100 calories per kilogram of body weight. In the 10 years, it takes 90 calories per kilogram of body weight, age 12 years 70 calories per pound of body weight. Thus, children who 2 years old and weighed 10 pounds requires 1,000 calories per day..

How to calculate calorie needs an easier was to use the plate as a measure. For example, children aged 2 years to have eating three plates full of composition every day. The portion of rice should be quite large. For the meat has same portion with rice, while the vegetable is in a little portion, plus others things. This portion is the opposite of adults. A little rice, the meat also not too big, but vegetables and fruits are in large number.

Once again, it is almost back to school time. For the parents, many would agree that back to school shopping can be a hassle at times due to the crowd. Based on my experience, I have found it to best to be prepared in advance.

First off, write a list of all the things that you need to get so that you do not forget anything. It’s best to take a few days to prepare it as you may overlook something today which you may remember the next day. I love to shop at one stop stores where they have everything you need, regardless your child is studying in a boys or girls school. Moreover, you can save gas by doing your shopping in one location only. Another alternative that I use for back to school shopping is via online stores. There are many stores that provide FREE delivery if you purchase above a certain amount and this is very convenient when you are too busy to go out. Everything gets shipped directly to your door.

One final advice, it is best that you do shop at the very last minute to avoid the crowd and also some items may be out of stock.
