6 month old baby first foods?
Hi everyone, my baby is 6 months old. I have already introduced cereals oatmeal, rice and barley. Now its on to the veg and fruits. I want to make all of the food myself but I'm a little confused. My doctor said today I can try different fruits and veg just to wait 3 4 days inbetween. Then I was told from another doctor to do all yellow veg, then green then fruit?? What gives? Could someone please help me?
What kind of veggies is best for babies first food?
I have a seventh month old baby boy who has just started eating solid food and he eats cereals and veggies now. He likes carrot and doesn't like squash and peas. I am feeding him veggies in puree form. What else could i feed him?
Baby first foods and baby second foods?
I am feeding my son gerber baby food. I was wondering how long you do first foods for. We have been through all of them and he has been eating them for almost a month now. Is it okay to start second foods once I finish off all the first foods I have left? How long to stay on second foods before moving on to thirds and so forth. Son is 4 months old and doctor gave okay to give him solids because he is large and developmentally advance for his age.
Do you find it funny that people assume cereal is every babies first food?
Why do most moms think that every baby starts with cereal as the first food? I have asked a couple questions recently about starting my son on food and I stated that I am practicing Baby Led Weaning which is giving the baby food that you eat instead of pureed foods but people still answer saying that babies first foods should be cereal and then jared food. Someone even went as far as telling me my baby NEEDS cereal. Why do people think this?Sara, I agree that most doctors tell parents this, maybe there is a conspiracy between the doctors and the baby food makers, lol. No seriously though, I don't know why doctors tell moms this. It is normally younger doctors who do this. Older doctors were around before baby cereal became popular and they usually suggest other things.BigDee, actually babies don't need teeth to eat soilds. Some babies don't get teeth until they are around 1 year old so would you wait until then to introduce solids to them? Babies can eat food with their gums just as good as with teeth.
Regarding babies first food!?
I know you are supposed to give them one type of food at a time for a week span to make sure there are no reactions or allergies to that specific food. My question though is do you have to feed them the rice cereal or can you just do the step one foods. We fed the cereal to my 5 month old for about a week but he hates it and I think he would like something with flavor. Can I skip the rice cereal??
