SOLID FOODS.....
Dont be too anxious to start solids. Allergies happen significantly if food is introduced too soon. Wait as long as you can even though your mother and everyone else is suggested
cereal in the bottle immediately. (ozip) Start feeding rice cereal at about 4 months old and slowly add other foods but as always make sure its ok with your baby's doctor 1st. (heidi_hibbit) start slowly. We have started
kind of early at 4 months, but only introduce things every 3-4 days to wait for an allergic reaction. Listen to your baby's signals when they are ready to take solids. (ruth_73) I know they lik to wait until four months for
solids but they really helped my little guy sleep and stretch his feedings out longer than every 1/2 hour. (startoestudio) It is so much fun watching your baby take their first tries at eating. Yes, it is messy but it is so
cute! (petreece) I have always waited until 5-6 months to start my kids on solids. They seem understand a little more about pushing the food to the back of the mouth, and they are a little more tolerant of food choices. I
also started Maeghan out on stage 2 foods this time. I was told that stage 2 has the same flavors as stage 1, and stage 1 is just a smaller portion of food that is more expensive. (mariap)
