Diet Plan for 17 Month 4 Week Old Toddler
Introduction:
Can you believe its already the last week of the month? Time sure flies by when you have a baby. We hope you’ve been keeping track of your baby’s likes, dislikes, and allergies because it’ll definitely make your life much easier, once your baby starts eating the same food you make at home, for every meal. If your baby is in the midst of teething and doesn’t take to certain foods, you can always try and re-introduce them at a later stage, when he’s eager to try something new. Since it’s the final week of the 17th month, this week’s diet plan is all about understanding which fruits, vegetables, and ingredients your child likes or dislikes, and introducing a few others for him to try. Let’s look at week four of the diet plan for your 17-month-old toddler.
