DS is 8 mths and small…13lb…under the 0.4th centile and he has just started taking solids a few weeks ago (on a high calorie formula since about 10 weeks old and drinks small amount so weight gain on that is slow too)…spat everything out first and now takes what ever I offer…have done a few days on each of the first foods and so far so good…. spoke to dietician today and she said to offer things high in cal..so potatoe mashed with other veg, yoghurt or custard with pureed fruit etc..rather than the fruit or veg alone and when giving something with milk(eg. babyrice) use the high cal formula.
WE are going on holidays for a week and I am trying to think of foods high in calories that are easy to travel with or that can be got everywhere…..any ideas?
Wondering about bananas and advocado…Ds has had both 4 days in a row and no problems but are they high in calories?
Yoghurts would be handy but not good to travel with plus not sure I would get ones for babies on holidays (Tenerief).
Also may not be easy to puree fruits as we are staying in hotel so wont have facilities so any ideas on that?
Any other ideas appreciated?
TIA
