Frankly speaking, 2months old is just too young to start taking solid foods especially when the mom is right beside her. Even if u won’t exclusively breastfeed for 6months, at least try 3months first and then introduce milk then slowly to solid foods. Her intestines isn’t as mature enough as u think. Plus breastmilk has all the nutrients needed and body defense cells to help her fight infections for next 6months. Nevertheless It’s your decision to make. Adanna is gorgeous ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@nnennachristy737]

Som's Thought, good talk u said it all

[@jenniferoni3897]

Honestly,it's jus too early...haba

[@favourchinaza4798]

It's not that early! Our mother's train us with food (pap) from days old and we are still very strong and healthy! There are kids that eats alot, hard to say but mine started at 4days..

[@BellaPreshTV]

The smoothest blender in the world. It just reminds me of how my Saturday mornings were to blend beans for moi moi and Akara. The finished look is beautiful 😍

[@NeloOkeke]

Yes oo.. very beautiful

[@deidrehammond7290]

Dear Nelo, I live in London, so l don't have access to the grinding machine you used in grinding Adana's food. But I have 2 blenders, one that is over 20 years old, and a modern one, and they both blend my beans, maize, millet, rice, dry roasted peanuts etc, perfectly well. I wash and soak my ingredients at least over night, or for 24 hours, and then I rinse and put a cup of water in the blender, and slowly add my maize 🌽 for porridge, beans for Akala / Akara, etc, but I don't soak the ground nuts / peanuts, I grind it with water. I think if you blend the ingredients at home, then you'll avoid driving out to the grinding machine, unless the machine is within a walking distance. I've used my blenders in blending beans for Akala for a party, and it went well. I believe you can blend 2 or 3 cups at a time, and use it for a day or two, and then blend another again, or even if necessary, blend daily, and a good nutribulet will grind very nicely for you, try it and see. Wishing You All The Best 🌈

[@JamConcerned]

Soaking it helps with digestion (gas) which happens with beans.

[@fonkemlarissa617]

Thanks alot for this video my baby is 5 months now and I have been scared to introduce solids for her but seeing you prepare this for Ada am good to go😍😍😍

[@NosagirlTV]

I struggle so much to do exclusive for 4 months and my babies cry so much because they are just not satisfied. Thank you Nelo, I have a new plan now for the future 😁. Adanna is two months, I cannot believe it 😍

[@NeloOkeke]

I really respect you all that do exclusive oo.. I have never been able to.

[@somykevin]

I also started it for my baby when she clocked 2 month,I make it than also put it on fire and stir for 2 sec, and pour into a flask, make new one every morning, Nd not planning to stop anytime soon 😁

[@Jossypassion]

I prepare mine by myself. That big blender brought alot of memories. Adanna dey enjoyoo. Great food for babies

[@ann907]

Hi Nelo😍😍 You can also add soybeans and sesame seeds to the mixture it's so healthy for babies

[@NeloOkeke]

Ok thank you.. I will next time after this finishes..

[@topisqotv]

You are very correct about people in villages. Even in towns baby food is not beans! My son was finishing a carton of sma gold in 2 weeks. I managed till 3 months we switched to akamu asap!

[@edithezeaku2206]

Nothing is as sweet as having a daughter honestly. Both sex are good though, but, there's this special joy attached to when you have a girl especially when it's exactly what you're praying for. God bless and keep you Adanna!

[@NeloOkeke]

Very true o

I just love you Nelo, you're a super hero mom. Am learning a lot from you because you give us real/ undiluted motherhood content.

Blending your own food it is the best because you know what is made of! Good job mama💖

Nelo by the way I’ve introduced your channel to quiet a few Caribbean American, who are similarly interested in our ancestral homeland and we really enjoy when you take us along for the ride 😊

[@NeloOkeke]

Awww thank you ☺️

[@BrendaKimbi]

Nelo that Blender looking like that it's probably an African thing, because even in Cameroon it's same and it's fast, quite affordable, and they take large quantities.

[@Misssomebody02]

This stuff legit knocks me out to sleep. This particular mixture if you want to finish me add soybeans inside. Let that house burn I wont wake up. It's legit awesome

[@NeloOkeke]

🤣🤣🤣

[@GADSFAMILY]

I enjoyed the video, it brought sweet memories when I started solid for my son, the stress is out of this world but enjoyed every bit of it for the sake of my love for it. Thank you for sharing and bringing back memories. It’s so real and I can definitely relate to it.

[@AsyDarlyn]

I remember going to blend my younger sister’s own when she was born. The whole process is still fresh in my mind😆

[@AsyDarlyn]

Don’t worry you’re not doing anything wrong. Some kids take food earlier than 2months, it’s all a matter of choice.

[@happylee2297]

This video is really helpful Adanna is such a cute babe The way she giggles in front of camera as if she knows we are watching her.

[@AustinBetha]

Oh yea, my mum used to make this too, even pap. Btw, that woman is equally a neat person considering the fact that there were no particles of beans or pepper remnant from her blender. If you know, you know!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Weldone mama

[@NeloOkeke]

😂😂😂 yes o..

[@naturalinspirationsbynekod2143]

This video was very nice and you're doing very well, by allowing your baby girl to eat solids from now. I'm sure *she'll enjoy it* and always want more, which is good for her to have a healthy appetite. *Great job Nelo,* all will go smoothly and you will be satisfied with the outcome. Nice seeing you Nels and take care until the next one!

[@Wakagirl]

Really nice! I’ve never heard of this! Thanks for teaching me something new today 😄

[@coolislandbreeze9906]

Enjoying the vlog . Typing while watching. Thank for taking me along to the market and grinding process. Love the realness. Adanna growing up fast. Kiato enjoy your bread o. Thanks for showing me Nigeria. By the time I visit I’ll be versed re your cultural practices.

[@adaonyeocha]

Yes ooo, that machine is the number one in Nigeria, those days in NAIJA i usually use it for soya beans for my kids.

[@Rolindatv]

I love homemade baby food. Chai now I see why Adanna is looking super cutie and chubby.

[@WILDAMBAIRE]

Honestly I can’t wait to come to Nigeria I want my son to experience all this food

[@bedecn262]

Thanks for sharing this video! My Mum used to sell "Akamu" (pap) It's been years & your video just reminded me the whole process.

[@AbujaYummyMummy]

lReally good to see the process, i never thought of mixing different grains. It’s better to do it yourself that way it’s clean, I don’t like buying pap.

[@ChiugooKings]

How wish i know it can‘t harm them, i could have done this to my children at two month. They don‘t eat african food now. Well done Adanna

[@roselineofoegbu8898]

I really do admire your confidence... Say hi to Ada cutie!

[@NeloOkeke]

Aww thank you

[@UgoIduma]

Guys nelo said she doesn’t plan on stopping soon for any of her kids is she saying there are more kids in the future so more okeke cuteness I’m here for this

[@relaxationzone2197]

Oh woww interesting, I didnt know we could start solids at 2 months. I always start my kids at 6 months. You were so hands on with the food/blending preparation process, I liked watching u there😊

[@victoriablessed2108]

Yeah they say 4 to 6months is best for the digestive system.🙏

[@rukeiwhiwhu6498]

Exactly I don’t know about earlier than that but I still do not feel if you Dnt start at two months they won’t take African foods. Just my opinion 🙃

[@relaxationzone2197]

@@rukeiwhiwhu6498 they'll still take African food even if u didnt start that earlier. As long as u introduce it to them and be consistent..

[@rollielovespencer2093]

I can't give food until they can hold their neck, I will be so scared to start at 2 months, 5, 6 months.

[@Learngrowinspireeducate]

Is 2 months too early for solids for the baby? We usually start at 4 months....we buy the corn meal already grinded wouldn't that be easier? I love learning new cultures... Addana is adorable.

[@NeloOkeke]

Its not though and I prefer to make it by myself. Thank you

[@abisolaabe]

Hi Nelo, just came across this video while searching for how to make pap for my 3 months old and I love this method. Please what did you add to the pap before giving Adanna.

[@NeloOkeke]

hey just milk..

[@FlorasForte]

Ada Ada, she’s beautiful 😍. I cannot forget that grinder it’s very noisy eh but it does the job perfectly.

[@preciousejimofor8844]

My baby is 4 months and cries more even after breastfeeding, scared of introducing solids so I had to make apple puree for him. He ate a whole lot but was very uncomfortable the whole day. I had to stop because I feel his system is not ready. Would try this for him at 5 months btw Adanna is beautiful.

[@NeloOkeke]

Thank you.. yes maybe you should. It might work.. so sorry for the stress and discomfort your baby’s feeling.

[@nikinireti959]

Wow, as a healthcare professional, 2 months is too early to start a baby on solids. Your her mother, but its not recommended at that age...

[@NeloOkeke]

Ok but it has not harm all the millions of people in the village that start giving their baby since birth. Infact they and their immune system are even stranger 🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️ doctors don’t advise it doesn’t mean it’s bad. Doctors dont know it all..

[@nikinireti959]

@@NeloOkeke Doctor's don't know everything, nurses don't know everything, midwives and other health professionals don't know everything but neither do you. They have the expertise which you don't have backed up by research based knowledge. No one can stop you from giving your 2 month old baby solids but this your argument is completely flawed. So much is being put into improving public health in Africa and with this your argument that your just going to do whatever you want to do, I can see why there is still a long way to go.

[@DeeDee-wl7tb]

Now I know babies can tolerate pap from 2 months. Please show us the consistency/ texture of the pap after you make it.

[@oyinade7426]

When I’m in Lagos, I shop from inside the car. From meat to fish to pepper to grinding the pepper, to chicken, killing the chicken, and cutting the chicken, to ewedu, okra, Maggi, palm oil, groundnut oil, gari, elubo, etc. My favorite markets are in Sura and Sand grouse. But person must use brain. I found for example that I can get plantains cheaper in traffic than at Sura market. Also, some supermarkets near my house sell certain items so much cheaper than buying them at the market, so I need to shine my eye at times.

[@aqueen232]

Let's be honest, you didn't upload this vlog just for the sake of showing how the food is made but to generate controversy/debate. Otherwise, the entire process would have been more detailed from start to finish rather than this bits and pieces. You've become somewhat of a 'KZbin veteran' not to know that people will talk; which is fine. But i ask- 'to what end please?' Creating a pattern of recycling vlogs?? There's a possibility that you'd make another video/IG post to address opposing comments. Ada is YOUR baby. You owe no one an explanation much less a full blown vlog on WHEN you decide to feed her.

[@NeloOkeke]
