POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy6 months agoA. Yes, you can give chia seeds to your 9-month-old baby, but in moderation and with proper preparation.
How to Give Chia Seeds to a 9-Month-Old?
✅ Soak them – Always soak chia seeds in water/milk for at least 2-3 hours before feeding to prevent choking.
✅ Mix in foods – Add to porridge, mashed fruits, yogurt, or homemade baby food.
✅ Start Small – Begin with 1/4 teaspoon per day and observe for allergies.
Benefits of Chia Seeds for Babies
✔️ Rich in Omega-3 – Good for brain development.
✔️ High in Fiber – Helps prevent constipation.
✔️ Good Source of Calcium & Iron – Supports bone and overall growth.
Precautions:
❌ Do not give dry chia seeds directly, as they expand with moisture and may cause choking.
❌ Avoid if the baby has allergies or digestive issues.
❌ Too much can cause loose motions due to high fiber.
