Diet Plan for 17 Month 3 Week Old Toddler

By Anisha Nair | Updated: 22/05/2020

Introduction:

Did your baby enjoy the foods in last week’s meal plan? We’re already into the second half of the month, and we’re sure your little one is having a great time tasting different flavours and textures. You’ve also, most probably, got acquainted with certain ingredients he loves, and subsequently, ones he doesn’t love. This is also a great time to track his food favourites, dislikes, and allergies, which will make your life much simpler, down the line. Your baby will still be teething, affecting his food habits, so avoid force-feeding him. This wholesome diet plan includes delicious dishes and ensures that your baby’s nutiritonal needs are met. Week 3 of the diet plan includes some favourites and essentials from week one and two, along with some new delicious dishes for your little one to try out and enjoy. Let’s look at week three of your 17-month-old baby’s diet plan.
