Hi!!
I think it's more down to persona; choice but the reason not many baby foods have pork in is because that out of all the meats it has the highest salt content. Im sure that in moderation it will be fine and do no harm :-)

We cook pork as soup or stew and add to his veggies and rice and he loves it. I'm giving him table food now but still adding his mashed veggies..

Hi heidi
i have a 8mth old daughter and she eats pork all the time and there has been no reaction to it, i have never been told not to, so i think you are fine to feed it to your daughter

My little one eats Gerber meats (ham, turkey, chicken, & beef) so ham would fall into the pork category. :-)

My daughter eats what we eat most of the time (mushed of course, she's not rady for lumps yet), and she LOVES when I make a pork roast and slice off 2 pieces, and put it in the blender with some apple sauce, mashed potatoes, carrots, peas, corn and beans. She will eat SOOOO much of that, even more than my 2 year old! I don't see a reason not to give it to them, i've never read about it anywhere really..

Some foods good to mix with pork: Apples, Pears, Broccoli, Carrots, Cauliflower, Green Beans, Peas, Sweet Potato, White Potato, Barley, Lentils, Pasta, rice

there are lots of websites where you can get baby food recipes, and there are a few for pork.

My little one loves it - but yes there arent any receipes with this meat - I tend to blend it with a mixture of either potato, sweet potato, peas, carrots, cauliflower, butternut squash - but she prefers tiny slivers on their own

Ive never really noticed that, but then I make most of the food my baby eats. There is nothing wrong with giving your baby pork. Liam loves pickled pork.
