yogurt!

I have been giving my boy baby yogurt for a week.he doesn't drink much milk so added yogurt to his diet. He loves it!!! The baby yogurt only comes with 2 flavors straberry and banana. Can I use regular yogurt (I mean the ones for adults). If I can, what brands do you recommend?thanks!!!

 

Definitely you can use adult yogurt! I always buy plain full fat yogurt and just add chunks of fruit or puree to it. Flavoured yogurts have quite a bit of sugar in them, but with plain yogurt you can control the sugar content. Glad you found something he loves to eat

 

I usually you reg yoguart or minigos. Dairyland has a baby yoguart out called little ones, and they have different flavours.

 

Oh thank you mamas! I will buy the plain and the mixed flavor for him to try and rotate. My son doesn't drink much milk from 12 to 5. So I give him yogurt mixed breast milk at 3 to make up for that bottle. Thanks!!

 

We still buy the full fat plain yogurt and add fruits to it. I think it tastes better and much healthier. And much cheaper than buying the little containers.

 

we used the whole milk yogurt that is organic. I think the brand was Stonyfield. I bought the large 32 oz tubs and mixed everything with yogurt! even lentils! they loved it... until I realized that they have some type of milk intolerance... and kept getting runny poops...

I couldn't find many whole milk yogurts that weren't organic, seemed that everything else in the store was low fat or fat free.

 

yeah I wanted to buy yoplaint but couldnt find whole milk one. Everything is low fat or fat free!!!! So I bought whole plain yogurt and will mix with banana and give it to him this afternoon. Thanks Laddies!!!

 

OMG--isn't yogurt the best?? My kids both love it. We have been giving them YoBaby from Stoneyfield in whatever flavors we can find. They have peach and strawberry/banana. We have also tried YoToddler in a pinch. The only difference I can see is the Toddler version has cereal in it. But seriously my kids just gulp it down. It's so great when you find something they love to eat!

 

Ladies I am going to try making breast milk yogurt tomorrow! My son loves loves yogurt. He can eat 2 containers/day. And its the only way i can make him intake more milk. Breast milk yogurt, man I never thought I would do it some day hahahah

 

It took me three stores to find plain full fat yogurt. I was buying Yo Baby (which my girls love), but it's so nice to mix in my own fruit. I must try the lentils!
