🥣 Homemade Oats – Part 2 | Toddler Edition 🤍🇨🇦

Continuing our homemade oats from Part 1, this time with 4 extra ingredients to add more nutrition and flavour!

Here’s what I added:

🥜 Mixed nut butter with seeds: Healthy fats + extra protein.

🥚 Egg whites: An easy way to add extra protein, especially for little ones who aren’t fans of eggs on their own!

🌱 H**p hearts: Plant-based protein + omega-3 & omega-6 fats.

✨ Cinnamon: Adds a little extra flavour.

🤍 My cooking tip: Slowly add the egg whites to your cooked oats over very low heat while whisking continuously for a smooth, creamy custard-like texture. Make sure the egg is fully cooked!

All four ingredients are Kirkland finds from Costco Canada! 🛒

‼️Allergy reminder: Contains egg and nuts. Introduce allergens individually if they are new to your little one, and use smooth nut butter.

Save this for your toddler’s breakfast! 🤍

🤍 STARTING SOLIDS? What I Wish I Knew Before Buying Baby Essentials

As a first-time mom, I bought products that worked for a short time but weren’t always practical as my baby grew!

From food prep and blending to freezer storage and feeding essentials, I’m sharing what I’d choose differently, what I’d skip, and what I’d recommend instead based on my own experience. 🥦🍽️

My biggest lesson? Think beyond the first few weeks of purées and choose products that can grow with your baby! 🤍

Save this post for your starting-solids journey, and share it with a mama who might find it helpful! 🤍

💬 What’s one baby product you’d choose differently?

Baby Food Blender 🥣

The NutriBullet Baby Food Prep System worked for some soft foods, but I found it less practical for larger portions and certain harder or frozen ingredients. We eventually used our regular blender at home, so I’d choose a more versatile kitchen system from the start!

Baby Food Steamer 🍲

Small appliances can work at first, but meal prep gets easier when you have room to make more than one portion! 🤍 I’d choose a more versatile option that can keep up as your baby grows.

Comfee Canada

Baby Food Freezer Trays 🧊

Freezing baby food ahead of time can make busy days easier! I’d choose larger, stackable portions to give myself more flexibility when preparing different foods for my little one. 🤍

Souper Cubes

Baby Feeding Bowls & Plates 🍽️

One thing I learned during our solids journey: bowls that move around during mealtime can make feeding more challenging! I prefer suction bowls and divided plates that help keep dishes in place while little ones practice self-feeding. 🤍

A few things that helped me along the way 🤍

I tried different pumps, bottles, and feeding options, and eventually found what worked best for me and my baby.

There can be so much pressure around feeding, but every mom and baby’s journey is different. What matters most is finding what works for you, your baby, and your family. 🩵

I’m sharing the pumps, bottles, and formula options I personally used in case they’re helpful for another mama going through a similar stage.

Mamas, What was one thing that made your feeding journey a little easier? 🤍

09/29/2026

My breastfeeding journey came with a few unexpected challenges. 🤍

My milk supply was very low, so I tried different pumps and explored foods and drinks that were supposed to help increase it, hoping to find what worked best for us.

Eventually, I realized I needed a different approach. Introducing formula helped me find a better balance, giving me more energy, more time to enjoy with my baby, and more opportunities to be present with my family. 🩵

Looking back, I learned that every mom and baby has a different feeding journey, and that’s perfectly okay.

Whether you breastfeed, pump, formula-feed, or combine different methods, what matters is finding what works for you and your baby. There’s no need to compare your journey to anyone else’s. 🤍

A little reminder to give yourself grace, trust your own journey, and enjoy those precious moments with your little one. 🫶🏻

Mamas, what is one thing you wish you had known about feeding your baby? 🤍
