Firm tofu was one of the earlier fingers foods I did for DS. He really liked it, but now not as much.

No, I don't really think it's good for you, what with the phytoestrogens. I'd be fine with letting someone else feed it to her, and if she grows up liking it she can choose that, but we won't really...

We have a couple times at my favorite Thai restaurant, starting sometime in his 9th month. He did a great job eating it, since it was relatively easy to pick up.

@autumnlove: I'm a genetic biologist by training, so I'm probably overly intune with hormones and such. If my husband didn't agree strongly I might not push it.

Since my oldest (3.5) doesn't like meat much he eats more tofu and eggs and we'll sneak in meat here and there with his meals just so he's not always eating tofu and eggs.

I'm also concerned about the effects of phytoestrogens. My husband encouraged me to limit my tofu, especially during pregnancy so I will limit it in LO's diet, too. I am planning on giving it to her,...

I gave it to her during the finger food stage but she wasn't a huge fan so I've forgotten about it since then.

I have given my LO soft tofu (7.5 months) and she absolutely loves it. It's too bad that i should limit her intake though, because it's so easy to prepare.@JerricaBenton: @sarac: Doing a quick search,...

@caffeinated: hmmm I've never heard that! interesting... I suppose I'd have to look into that further. Flax definitely isn't consumed in large quantities though, so maybe that's why it's not a concern?

@cvbee: I agree! I still gave LO tofu for dinner though. Lalalalala...@JerricaBenton: We eat tofu maybe once a week (and no soy milk), so i'm assuming that it won't have much affect on us!
