Question

Accepted Answer

Your baby's weight gain appears to be on track, especially considering that she is active and seems healthy. Typically, by 10 months, babies have usually tripled their birth weight, but this can vary widely. Here are some tips on feeding your 10-month-old to ensure she gets the nutrients she needs:

### Feeding Tips:

1. **Breast Milk or Formula:**
   - Continue to offer breast milk or formula as it should still be a significant part of her diet.

2. **Solid Foods:**
   - **Fruits:** Soft fruits like bananas, pears, applesauce, and avocados.
   - **Vegetables:** Steamed or boiled vegetables like carrots, sweet potatoes, peas, and broccoli.
   - **Proteins:** Pureed or finely chopped meats, poultry, fish (watch for bones), beans, lentils, and tofu.
   - **Grains:** Iron-fortified cereals, small pieces of soft bread, pasta, rice, and quinoa.
   - **Dairy:** Yogurt, cheese, and small amounts of whole milk (though breast milk or formula should remain the primary source of nutrition).

3. **Finger Foods:**
   - Small, soft pieces of fruits and vegetables, cheese, or well-cooked pasta can help her develop self-feeding skills.

4. **Avoid Certain Foods:**
   - Avoid honey (until she’s at least one year old), whole nuts (due to choking risk), and foods high in salt and sugar.

### Sample Meal Plan:

**Breakfast:**
- Iron-fortified cereal mixed with breast milk or formula.
- Small pieces of soft fruit (banana or avocado).

**Snack:**
- Plain yogurt with a small amount of fruit puree.

**Lunch:**
- Mashed sweet potatoes or steamed carrots.
- Small pieces of soft chicken or tofu.

**Snack:**
- Soft cheese pieces or a few steamed vegetable pieces.

**Dinner:**
- Small pieces of soft pasta with a vegetable puree.
- Finely chopped or pureed meat, fish, or beans.

**Before Bed:**
- Breast milk or formula.

### Tips:
- **Introduce New Foods Gradually:** Introduce one new food at a time and watch for any allergic reactions.
- **Variety:** Offer a variety of foods to ensure she gets a range of nutrients.
- **Textures:** Gradually increase the texture of foods to help her develop chewing skills.

It's always a good idea to discuss your baby's diet with her pediatrician, especially if you have any concerns about her growth or nutritional needs.
