A member asked:
Is it okay to add a pinch or two of salt, in addition to garlic powder, salt powder, and tomato paste to table foods that my 9mo will eventually eat?

Italian babies have : been doing it for years. A 9-month-old with an emerging pincer grasp can self-feed spaghetti cut into short lengths. Expect tomato sauce from her hair to the floor. Don't model adding salt at the table. You can buy the AAP's Guide to Your Child's Nutrition on Amazon for $12. Please seek therapy for your depression, as it is important for your baby's as well as your well-being.
