Yoghurt for babies

[ss_storm]

Just wondered what yoghurt is "safe" for babies to have...I usually buy the vanilla Ski yoghurt for me, but didn't think that it was good for babies to have dairy...

I use one made by Vahlia (I think). In most supermarkets.

Jalna all the way. The baby yogurt is just full of sugar (to get them to eat it i suppose) and there is no way i would give it to DD and shes 15 months. At 6 months the most important food for them is their milk, it will give them what they need.

There are 'baby' yogurts, but I have always given my DS the natural Greek style yogurt and mixed fruit through it (banana or mango is good!). That way you know the yogurt is natural with no added sugar.

As far as I know, yogurt is fine for babies, unless you have dairy intolerance issues in your family, in which case you should be cautious.

Jalna here too!!

i too use Jalna or the gippsland organic plain yoghurt and mix fruit with it.

Like everyone else says, baby yoghurts are full of sugar. Your ski vanilla is probably quite high in sugar too. I mean, it would be fine for your little girl to eat, better than a cheeseburger i guess, but a plain yoghurt with fruit mixed through would be a better alternative. I sometimes use those rafferties pouches and mix that in.

Mundella all the way here! Its a locally produced yoghurt (but you can get it nationally in Coles & Woolies) pot set, full of good live cultures and its ingredients are listed as:
Whole Milk, Non-fat milk solids & cultures. (Premium Natural style)

I also get the one with berry fruit in it and the only other ingredients then are the fruit.

I buy it by the 5kg tub and add my own fruit / toppings. Its YUMMY!!!!
