Happy Baby Stage 2 Baby Food Variety Pack, 4oz (Pack of 10)

Baby liked the flavors, even the kale and spinach options. She didn’t eat purée for long, but I’d recommend to all children, as they’re organic and tasty.

Love the quality and ease of use! The ingredients are simple and the taste is wonderful!

My kid loves these things. I love that they have vegetables in them. It’s also a nice way to get a little more liquid into him when it’s hot. He’s been practicing eating while walking, which has resulted in a lot of squeezed pouch puddles. And I probably wouldn’t give them to him While he’s in his carseat again. He had fun, but I had to shampoo the carseat afterwards.

I’m not feeling well at all and once again I’m left feeling like I’m wasting away in this body… These make it possible for me to get some semblance of my caloric needs which is difficult to do since at times just drinking water makes me feel like I just ate a full course meal. For some reason, there are times, when I eat solid foods it’ll feel like the food is just sitting in my stomach like a heavy rock and if I try to force myself to eat more throughout the day (even when more than a reasonable amount of time has passed since my last meal), the food will feel like it’s just overpiling in my stomach causing a feeling of engorgement that my stomach responds back with painful cramps. If I end up regurgitating the food I ate I’ll just try my best to swallow the vomit back down since I was taught to never waste food…

I’m trying, I’m really trying to eat three square meals a day, but it’s hard. For now I’m trying to increase my calorie intake by any means necessary, but I’m at my wits end. I’m grasping at straws here, I’m hungry but solid foods are just too heavy a burden for my stomach to bear sometimes and I don’t understand why my body sometimes rejects solid foods, so whenever I get a gastrointestinal flare up like this I end up turning to pureed food, baby food pouches, or smoothie pouches for sustenance. It’s becoming more and more of a financial struggle to maintain any semblance of a quality of life, but I’m still here and I’m still trying to live.

These pouches have helped me when I can’t stomach solid foods and they’re suitable for travel too. Currently I’m trying to come up with options that don’t too heavily burden my stomach since I need a suitable nutritional intake so my body won’t have to endure anymore undue harm during flare ups. I don’t want to distress my body anymore than I have to, especially when I experience daily trauma even when I’m attempting to complete my ADLs. These pouches come in a box (I’ve yet to find a local grocery store that sells them in a box like this, only individually) so purchasing them here like this is more affordable in the long run which makes it easier for me (or my parents) to purchase them so I can eat. The ingredients are solid, I don’t know how they do it, but they make kale and spinach taste delicious and the texture isn’t grainy or chalky either. I literally can’t taste the kale or the spinach in this (I have a deep seeded aversion to spinach, so this is a life saver!).

These pouches, when purchased in this quantity, are more affordable than purchasing the same amount individually at local grocery stores (they’re almost always sold out anyhow) I find these edible and easy to consume when on the go (like on Sundays when my Dad insists that I venture out of the house with him since it makes him sad to see me holed up at home all the time). In terms of performance these are great! If I could adjust anything though, it would be that I really wished that the pouches had more calories per serving (at least 100) and if each pouch had at least 10 grams of protein per serving, and maybe even a blend of additional vitamins (like calcium, vitamin D, and iron) it would help me better achieve at least the baseline of what’s required for my nutritional intake, but of course this is a product advertised for infants so that input probably won’t be considered valid.
