POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy10 months agoA. At 10 months old, you can introduce a variety of solid foods to your baby, including both pureed and soft, mashed options. Curd (yogurt) and paneer (cottage cheese) are excellent choices to include in your baby's diet. Curd is rich in probiotics and calcium, which are beneficial for gut health and bone development. You can offer plain, unsweetened yogurt, possibly mixed with mashed fruits like banana or applesauce for added flavor. Paneer is a good source of protein and can be offered in small, soft pieces or crumbled, making it easy for your baby to chew.
In addition to dairy products, you can provide well-cooked and finely mashed vegetables (like carrots, peas, and sweet potatoes), soft fruits (such as bananas, avocados, and steamed apples), and grains (like rice, oats, and soft chapati pieces). You can also include lentils or dal, which are excellent sources of protein. Always ensure that foods are cut into small, manageable pieces to prevent choking and monitor your baby for any signs of allergies when introducing new foods. As you expand your baby’s diet, it’s important to maintain a balance and provide a variety of flavors and textures to encourage healthy eating habits.
