can baby rice give tummy ache?

[issywoo]

my 5 month old ds has babyrice and fruit puree at 6pm and then wakes up screaming at 9.45 -10pm. could he have tummy ache? have tried with just puree and he seems fine but then wakes up around midnight starving hungry. should i give him sweet potato at 6pm perhaps? must it always be fruit?he still has a milk feed at 11pm

I found this with my dd. If i gave her baby rice with her puree she would get horrible wind that would wake her up. I now give her fruit at lunch time and something starchy at tea time- sweet potato and carrot or potato and broccoli are firm favourites!

My dd1 got dreadful wind from baby rice. I took a tip from on here and made my own my boling white rice until really soft and then putting it through a mouli or sieve. This filled dd up and I could use it for savoury or sweet dishes. HTH

That should be, by boiling!

gave ds sweet potato last night and he was definitely more comfortable. i couldn't believe it would give him wind, i always thought the whole point of giving baby rice was because it was easily tolerated. i'll try the mushy homemade rice - sounds like a good alternative.
what else goes nicely with sweet potato?

sweet potato and apple/carrot or parsnip go down a treat for ds
try potato,pea and parsnip-horrid colour but ds loves it,smile ,

why can't i do smileys anymore?,sad,

see still didn't work, sorry to digress

does parsnip give wind? i know it does that to me and dh so i'm worried ds may be affected. tried the sweet potato and apple and he loves it. not sure what to give him at lunch time. i madhe mistake of blending potato and it went stringy. any tips on what to do with potato and storing it?

i sieve or mouli potato as it does go yucky in a blender
you can also blend the other items together and then add it to the potato using a fork to mix together
use baby milk to puree the potato if needed and store in little ice cube trays
