What sort of yoghurt can I feed my 7 month old

Leann...
Answer: Hi there,
that’s one of my favourite topics. I tend to suggest to stick with ‘adult-style’ yoghurts, real ones, the ones that are naturally fermented, rather than those with probiotics added as an ingredient. Ideally opt for unsweetened brands, such as Jalna or Bornhoffen or similar. Check out the ingredients list, generally the ‘real’ yoghurts have only a few ingredients and of course opt for those that don’t have added sugar (add your own fruit and so on). You do need to use full fat so this can limit your choices a little.

I have a fact sheet on yoghurt with more information, the link is:

Also, if you wanted more info on solids, I have some tip sheets on Huggies on starting solids and also a book that might help with solids, the links are:

(it is at the end as the books are listed in alphabetical order)

Plus a great little fridge chart I did with Organic Bubs on solids on my

site:

Hope that helps
All the best
