Have you started solids yet?

Question

What are some options for starting solids? Ebf

Answer

We started solids at 5.5 months  (that was 2 weeks ago. )my daughter does have 2 teeth already poked though.  She sits on her butt on her own and crawls already. Her pediatrician said it's fine to start solids.
We were told to start with the vaggies first,  since fruits are sweet and will be liked by most babies,  while most hate veggies.
We were told to keep same exact food for 3 days and see if she has an alergic reaction to it. If not, move on to something else.
We started on peas 3 times a day..she loves peas. Then we did green beans. Loves them. We did sweet potatoes and sweet carrots. Loves them.  We did APPLE and she hates it. Go figure.

Answer

Just finished eating some banana.

Answer

I started with rice cereal which in my opinion is the best thing to start with. Many people say it has no nutritional value which can be said for some of the foods we eat as adults but still eat with no problem.... Anywhoo... I felt that it was good to start with seeing as it's mixed with breast milk or formula so it's a familiar taste. It lets the baby get used to a different texture. After a few weeks I started with purées and did this order:

Bananas
Apples
*added Oatmeal at this point for breakfast 
Sweet Potatoes 
Green beans 
Carrots

This week we will try peas!

Many people also say that the baby can develope a sweet tooth if given fruits first. Many doctors actually say the contrary and say that fruits are easier since its sweetness is closest to formula and bm. So far my lo loves everything but she is partial to carrots which is weird seeing as they are the sweetest veggie! 😂😂😂

Answer

I did sweet potatoes, squash and on Monday ill do carrots. He's 6 months on the 5th.
