A. Dates should be introduced in small portions to test how the baby reacts to this new food. They can be introduced with other fruits-one at a time. Dates are nutrient-rich and are packed with a good variety and amounts of minerals and vitamins which are essential for the growth of your baby. Start with one date along with other fruits It can be mashed with other fruits or steamed. Give steamed dates or mashed in small pieces or puree to avoid any choking hazards., yu

A. Yes, you can include dates in babysdiet as it has great nutritional value with high content of iron. You can soak 2-3 dates overnight and then in the morning give it in pureed form just plain or mix in some foods like oats with other nuts. Or else, you can also make powder of it with other dry fruits like almonds, edible seeds and walnuts and mix it a spoon of it in baby foods.
