At 11 months , I am assuming he/she has a few teeth.
What do you eat for breakfast? Toast, fruit, scrambled eggs, pancakes, waffles(my daughter loved Eggo waffles) um french toast. The only thing my daughter did not and still does not like is potatoes. But I would try some great foods like that and they can eat them by them selves. make them finger type foods.
My daughter from the time she was about 7 months old(she had a mouth full of teeth) ate what ever we ate and then had a bottle.
So it really depends on the child. And what they can handle.
Experiment that's what I did.
No honey tho, that's the only thing you should not give a baby.
Good luck.

Hi jackie21123
normally when we are sick our bloods tend to rise higher than normal so it is best to keep the levemir going in
a chat with your daughters DSN might be a good idea too.

when I feel ill and don't want to eat it is normally a bit of either lemonade or lucozade to get some liquid in

here are sick day rules to have a look at too
