If you're pregnant or planning to get pregnant,🤰🏻 I'm sure you're questioning yourself whether it's safe to consume fish or not. 🎣

DONT WORRY MOMMIES!💪🏻🥰
✅Seafood, which includes fish and shellfish, can be a great source of protein, iron and zinc; crucial nutrients for your baby's growth and development👶🏻💪🏻
The omega-3, also can promote your baby's brain development.🧠🧠

⚠️⚠️⚠️
HOWEVER, some types of seafood; particularly large, predatory fish such as shark, swordfish, and tilefish can contain high levels of mercury. Too much mercury in your bloodstream can damage your baby's developing brain and nervous system.🧠⚠️
🐟🐠🐟🐠
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommend that pregnant women eat up to 12 ounces (340 grams) of seafood low in mercury a week. 😋👍🏻
Seafood low in mercury and high in omega-3 fatty acids, include🐠🐟
•Salmon
•Anchovies
•Herring
•Sardines
•Freshwater trout
•Shrimp
•Pollock
•Tilapia
•Cod
•Catfish
•Shellfish

⚠️⚠️ Make sure to avoid uncooked fish and shellfish like oysters, sushi, sashimi and refrigerated uncooked seafood.🍣
⚠️⚠️Most seafood should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 F (63C). 👩🏻‍🍳Fish is considered done when it separates into flakes and appears opaque throughout.

It's true that meat is a great source of iron, but so are alot of plant-based foods🌱😋.

Iron deficiency is so common among children and women which is why it's very important to include iron rich food in your diet🥬🌱🍑

Some examples of plant-based iron sources are:
🧆Legumes (beans, peas, lentils)
🥬Green leafy vegetables (spinach, swiss chard, kale, leek, spring onions, celery, parsley🌿..)
🍄 Mushrooms
🌾 oats or quinoa
🌱 Soy products
🍑 Dried apricots
🌰🥜 nuts and seeds

✅ serve iron rich foods with foods high in vitamin-C like 🥝🍋🍊🍓🍍
⛔ Don't drink tea or coffee near meal time as they contain natural chemicals that inhibit iron absorption 🍵☕
✅ soak grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds overnight to reduce phytic acid (an iron absorption inhibitor).

Hello Mommies! 👩‍👧‍👦
Did you know that along with breastmilk, most babies are ready to start solid foods when they’re about 6 months old?
If your baby is ready for solids introduction, here’s how to make sure that the foods you give to your baby are safe and easy-to-eat for your baby’s developmental capabilities.

🍉Size and Shape:
✅Most babies just starting solids cannot use their thumb and forefinger yet. So to pick up foods they grasp them with their whole palm🖐. it’s best to cut food the length of your finger☝️ and the width of 2 fingers✌. This is the best size for them to be able to hold the whole piece without feeling frustrated.
✅You can keep some skin from the lower part of some foods so the baby can use it as a handle. 🍌
🥑 Texture:
✅ Use a crinkle cutter to help add grip to slippery foods for babies.
✅At all ages, foods should be soft enough that you can smash them with gentle pressure between your thumb and forefinger.
⚠️ There are alot of 

👌 When your baby develops his pincer grasp try cutting foods into small pieces, about chickpea-sized.
🍇For small round foods like chickpeas or blueberries, smash them lightly before serving. 
✅It’s great for babies at this age to practice their pincer grasp, but it’s also fine to continue serving food as fingers like you did when he was younger.

Mommies! 👩‍👧‍👦
