I was just thinking that maybe I could start making and freezing baby food? L is 4.75 months old...
When did you start making baby food?
-
After we started solids. I think it's only good for a month in the freezer, and they only eat tiny amounts at first. I just made it as we went for the first couple weeks (banana, avocado, sweet potato, etc) in small amounts. After maybe two weeks I mad some bigger batches for the freezer. Now she eats about 4 ounces at dinner, and I can just pop out 1 ounce cubes of whatever.
-
Not until she turned six months old. I only made enough to freeze for about a week - no matter how carefully I froze the purée cubes, they always looked freezer burned and had ice growing on them.
-
I froze some fresh berries and peaches in the summer. We're doing BLW though, so no purées required.
-
I think we are going to do blw...

6 months

I was told that they only last a month or so in the freezer, so we're waiting until we're ready to start solids.
I can't believe your L is already almost 5 months old. WOW!
-
As soon as I get my baby food maker! Soon!
-
Well, I had intentions of starting early but then before I knew it she was 6 months sooooo that didn't work out well.
BUT, it worked in my favor in the end b/c LO HATES reheated food. Everything has to be fresh cooked--exceptions are made though if I melt butter in with reheating. Oy.
-
I started as soon as we started solids, so around 5 months.
-
Maybe a week or two before we started solids. I made 3-4 different kinds.

Ah! Thanks everyone. Did not know it was only good for a month frozen. I think I'll do like some of you and just make it as we go!
