What are you choosing for baby’s first solid foods???

Question

Starting to wrap my head around the fact that solid foods starting is coming up soon 😭 what are you planning on starting with and why?  I’m leaning towards organic oat cereal for week 1 so far

Answer

Cereal has no nutritional value. Starting with veggies is better for then

Answer

we plan on doing baby led weaning so we wont introduce food until he shows signs of being ready. then we will just give him strips of whatever we are having and that wont be until closer to 1 year

Answer

Well, in Denmark we have specialized nurses who visit several times after birth (If we want it) and she'll come around a week before she is four months to talk about introducing the first food. I'll probably also be given advice on what to start how much to start with and so on. I would love to share that information, but you'll have to wait till July 19th 😅
If I didn't know anything g I would most likely just go buy whatever is available that says 4+ months 😂 
I'm literally so excited I can barely wait! 😊

Answer

It’s crazy seeing people start thinking about solids - in the uk we don’t start weaning until six months.

Answer

Rice cereal for the first couple weeks, then oatmeal. That's what my pediatrician recommended with my first and it worked great. I used Earth's Best brand and really liked it.

Answer

Avocado for 4 days then sweet potatoes for 4 days then bananas and so on.

Answer

When we start around 5 or 6 months we are doing avocado mixed with breast milk. Then adding veggies and fruits.

Answer

I think different cultures have different ways of starting. I literally have had baby on cereal since 21/2 months. I started with a little sprinkle. Now at 31/2 months we’re up to a tablespoon in a 5oz bottle. I didn’t produce enough breastmilk for him so we had to supplement. It took him a month to get back up to his birth weight. But now he is growing like a weed. Im going to start on solids after his 4 month check up.
Heres my handsomeness.

Answer

Probably some sweet potato, then carrots. We do not an on doing any cereal

Answer

Our pediatrician said we discuss further at our 4 month appointment in two weeks. But she did say she’d be suggesting to start with fruits and vegetables not cereals since our baby has had constipation issues periodically.
