The Yummy Mummy-Way with awesome PediaSure Recipes for Kids

So, my dear readers, subsequent to my first post on PediaSure nutrition, as promised, here I am with my review of this wonderful scientifically proven kid’s food supplement. We’ve been using it regularly for my kiddo over the last month and chose Kesar Badam as the flavour of the month! I let my kid choose one out of the three amazing flavours that also included Vanilla and Premium Chocolate. That served a dual purpose - one he learns decision making early on; and second, he readily gulps it all down as it is his choice ( aren’t I an intelligent mom?).

Also, for my little fussy eater munchkin, who definitely is not the milk-drinking kind, I conducted a few trials and tests; I introduced him to a variety of PediaSure recipes I found on the web. I am so glad it worked out in my favour.

I realised my little one is growing up and he now wants a variety of flavours and, as a mother, only some foods with vital nutrients given to him, will make me feel better. So I meticulously carved out a menu for the week that included PediaSure nutrition, but kept it a surprise for him. He actually waited to come back from school and let me reveal the day's surprise treat.

I made pancakes, puddings and ice creams, a variety of shakes like a yummilicious banana shake, and other desserts, all enriched with PediaSure for kids. I downloaded the recipes from the website and they weren't tricky to make at all. I must say, it was well worth the effort for my little peanut. All three flavours are always on my shelf; it adds to my arsenal of items to make great meals in a variety of flavours.

Now this new regime has changed the very atmosphere in my household. Above all, I don't have to crib for hours and run behind him to eat or drink. The monotony and the same old mommy threats are gone. My child loves the excitement and surprise element in his life thanks to PediaSure usage and I can feel that he is quite happy and adores our new routine. Hubby dear is happy too as I am not complaining anymore in the evenings.

It feels really great when you know that your child, who has never eaten properly, is finally getting all the essential nutrients his body needs to grow. This is also proper nourishment that also reduced the number of sick days as PediaSure nutrition has also been working on building his immunity.

As a mommy blogger, I think this is something every mom needs to try for their kid. It is easily available here.

Mum's Tried and Tested Mantra: Be Sure with PediaSure

Being a mum truly means the world to me. The warm feeling of motherhood never fails to tickle my soul and make it go ooh la la each day, despite the heaps of responsibility that it comes with.

Responsibility - it is indeed a humongous task which gets heavier if your little peanut is a fussy eater like mine. No matter how hard I try or how diverse the recipe I attempt, more often than not, the portion he devours is still too meagre for what is desired at his age. His nourishment is on my mind 24x7 to the level that I am always on the lookout for options which can cover up his needs for macro and micro nutrients vital for his growth, no matter where I go or what I do.

During one such extensive hunt for a healthy and nutritious supplement, I discovered a talisman which has worked wonders for my child and which his paediatrician recommended. When we found that my little boy was lagging behind in height-weight parameters, he asked me to introduce PediaSure to his daily meal intake and it had a magical effect on his health.

PediaSure is rich in 37 nutrients essential for a kid's growth. It is one of the most trusted names in children’s supplements globally and has been so for many years now. PediaSure is a meticulously researched formula that provides complete, balanced nutrition required by a child’s growing body and supplements the nutrition gaps that can arise due to fussy eating. The figure below in an indicative of the fact of the kind of goodness it enriches my child with.

PediaSure can be added to the little one's milk or can be constituted in water. I can also swear by all 3 flavours – Vanilla Delight, Chocolate and Kesar Badam which are undoubtedly quite yummy! You could also experiment a little with PediaSure recipes. One needs to be aware, however, that for your little munchkin to get the best out of it, make sure you don’t add PediaSure to the mix till after the temperature of the dish drops to below 35°C as higher temperatures will affect the probiotics present.

In my case, PediaSure has become a family member; it lets my little boy relish his meals and stay active during the day. It also means he learns to eat everything and also gains independence while at night his “Power Mamma” gives him 5 scoops of PediaSure added to 190ml of water. The taste soothes his taste buds and it satiates me that my child's drink complemented for all the desired nutrients he missed during the day. And a perfect nutrition means his risk to contract infections lessens and so do the number of sick days. What else can a mum ask for!

What you need to keep in mind is that PediaSure is not for children with galactosemia or who are lactose intolerant. The normal recommended age to start this is 2 years but it always helps to check with your paediatrician before you start.

Although PediaSure approached me to review their product as part of their #90DaysWithPediaSure campaign, all views and opinions expressed in my writing are my own. So follow me on #MyPediaSureJourney as I show you just how the supplement has worked out for my child over the next few weeks.

I reiterate, for me, PediaSure is certainly my tried and tested mantra to secure my kid's health and growth parameters and I would love to stick to it for ever. Based on my personal experience, I really think this is something all parents should consider.
