Your 10-Month-Old Baby's Weekly Meal Plan

Before we delve into the actual meal plan, here's a list of foods you should avoid giving your 10-
month-old, according to the NHS.
 Salt. Salt can damage your little one's developing kidneys, so never add salt to any of your
baby's food, including supes and sauces. Pre-made stocks and gravy shouldn't also be used
as these are known to be high in salt.
 Sugar. Avoid drinks and snacks packed with sugar, such as fruit drinks as your babies don't
need sugar at ten months of age, and this will only lead to future tooth decay.
 Honey. Although honey is generally healthy, this should not be given to babies as they
contain bacteria that can be extremely harmful to your baby's intestines and can cause them
to become really unwell.
 Saturated fat. Limit the crisps, biscuits, and cakes as these contain high levels of saturated
fat, which can result in your baby, developing an increased risk of heart disease later in life.
 Peanuts and whole nuts. Whole nuts are choking hazards and shouldn't be given to babies
under five years old. However, ground, smooth, or crushed nuts are okay after six months of
age. It is always best to double-check and consult with your GP before starting your baby on
any nuts if there is a history of nut or other allergies in any of the family members.
 Raw food. Always serve your baby with cooked meat, fish, and eggs and properly washed
food.
 Mould-ripened cheese. Cheese like brie, goat's milk cheese, or any other mould-ripened
cheese should not be given to avoid the risk of your baby getting listeria.
 Some fishes. Baby shark, marlin, or swordfish should be avoided because of their incredibly
high amounts of mercury that can be harmful to your baby's nervous system development.
