do you have to always reheat food when weaning?

[bumbly]

i am referring to when weaning a six month old

you have made your own purees...then you defrost them..

say you defrost them at room temp for a few hours and they are then at room temp

do you still have to reheat till piping hot and cool?

if so how the hell do you feed weasning babies when out and about?

stick in microwave until piping hot before you go out and by the time you get to where you are eating the food will be room temperature
or , like me,use jars when out

i prseume jars can be eaten when opened without heating

yes and some places will heat them for you if you ask
my two always ate them without reheating though

never heated jars - they ate them at room temperature. If you want to warm your own , ask for half a cup of hot water and stand the pot over it but I was always more cautious with taking homemade meat-based purees out.

when out and about its easier to take a banana, a yoghurt, a fruit pot, etc and then you never need to worry about heating at all.

thanks to all

can you give yogurt during early weaning???

My dd1 would not eat hot food. She enjoyed it fridge cold (oddball ). I never heated her food up after a while and made all my own stuff for her (unlike dd2 ). I would take it from the freezer and let it defrost over the day and then feed it to her....Is that awful? She didn't have any sickness or diarrhoea until she was well over 1 so either I was lucky or it was fine.

yoghurt is fine after 6 months iirc

Yes to dairy after 6 mths I think.

yoghurt is fine - plain yoghurt or fromage frais with homemade fruit purees better than commercial ones (they add sweeteners etc). Good staple for when teething too.

Yes, to yogurt and cheese after 6 months, but not cow's milk. They can't digest that until 1 year.
My DD ate her food straight from the fridge too.
