satsumas/orange

[shellybelly]

got some and wondered if it was ok for dd 10mths to have them (daft question i know )

not a daft question at all

I would say yes, but not a whole one, just a couple of segments at a time because they are quite acidic. I always take the tough outer membrane off (bit fiddly) and give them the soft bit. And check for pips

thanks greensleeves, I think she is getting fed up of bananas all the time and she won't eat apple so I want to introduce other fruit

my 10 month old dd adores oranges. bounces up & down whenever she sees them. she's been eating them since she was weaned at 6 months. she doesn't actually swallow much, just sucks them a lot. and spits all the pips out. go for it!

At that age my DD loved plums.

mmmm plums she may like them, the satsuma didn't go down well, plums aren't as tart (she pulled a really funny face when she tasted it) will give them a try

mine love melons, won't touch satsumas. One also loves strawberries and mango.

Plums are very messy IIRC.

Oh, will try satsumas as well now. Won't entertain bananas now...
