Dear [*data('91.salutation')|html*]
How time flies. It's been 10 months now. Your little one has mastered the basics and they're nearly ready for a proper family meal. To help you complete the final stage of the weaning journey, Sheree has some great recipe ideas to introduce your little one to minced and chopped up food. |

Preparing for family meal times
Your little one may not be ready to eat the same food as you, but they're nearly there. Here are a few things you can do, to help them on their way:
• Let your baby hold a spoon when feeding, so they can learn how to feed themselves
• Give finger foods that are gentle on gums as teeth may be coming through
• If your baby is teething, cucumber will help cool sore gums
• If you baby is vegetarian, beans, lentils and dried fruit are good sources of iron. |

Weaning out and about
As your confidence grows with feeding, you'll feel even more comfortable outdoors - a trip to the seaside, or to a park. Here are some tips for weaning on the go:
• Plan your day, shop for food, lay out clothes and pack a bag so you set off relaxed
• Keep food fresh using a cooler bag
• Babies drop spoons, so pack spares
• Bring a change of clothes it might get messy
• 200ml SMA® Follow-on Milk cartons are perfect to use on the go. |

The importance of milk
All babies are different but it's recommended that you try to give your baby from 6 months to 1 year, three meals a day, plus some healthy snacks in between, as well as breast milk, or 500 – 600 ml of SMA Follow-on Milk per day, either as a drink, on cereals or mixed with food. Remember cows’ milk must not be used as a drink during the first year. |
