Product Information

Piccolo Organic came top, with a surprising 100% of parents saying their baby was happy to eat it, while HiPP Organic and Tesco own brand weren't far behind, with 99% of parents saying the food made their babies happy. Soft finger foods (such as cooked vegetables or fruit) are good for starting out, as they'll help to develop motor skills.

Partially hydrolysed formula (comfort formula) is not suitable for babies who have cows' milk allergy. Allow your baby to go at their own pace and explore new foods and textures (even if it's a little messy).

However, if you think a particular brand of formula disagrees with your baby, talk to a midwife or health visitor.

The packaging for these meals is not always recyclable, so it's less environmentally friendly than homemade food.

To discover which food babies like the best, we also asked parents how happy, if at all, their baby was when eating it. When your baby is 1 year old, they can start to drink whole cows' milk or sheep's or goats' milk (as long as these milks are pasteurised). Hungrier baby formula (hungry milk) is suitable from birth, but ask a midwife or health visitor for advice first.

The doctor just seemed to think that she was a bit young for the powdered milk that was in these porridges - even though some babies are fine.Less expensive than jarred products, especially those that are simply puréed fruit or vegetables - you can make these combinations far more cheaply at home with a hand blender. The usual guidelines for how to make up baby formula recommend using boiled water that has stood for no more than 30 minutes, so that the temperature is still above 70C. Hi Michelle, I have just seen your post and was wondering if you ever got to the bottom of your daughters skin reaction to porridge. Because of this, there are concerns that they could affect a baby's reproductive development, especially in babies who drink only soya-based infant formula.

There's no evidence to suggest that these products provide extra nutritional benefits for young children.The survey included 21 baby food brands, with a difference of 10 percentage points between the top-scoring and lowest-scoring brands. This 1st happened a few days ago, so I left the porridge for a few days and tried again and the same thing happened so it must be the porridge causing it as she hasn't reacted like that to anything else. I thought ıt may be an allergy to gluten so I tried a cow and gate gluten free porridge - but if anything the rash was worse and more immediate.
