Baby food?

Question

When did you guys transition your babies from the basic baby foods to actual food? My daughter is 9m and has 2 teeth and the basic baby foods just aren’t filling her up anymore... any advice would be appreciated!!

Answer

Breastmilk or formula should be her primary food source. Solids before 1 year should not replace that

Answer

At 9 months you should still be mostly formula or breast milk so that shouldn’t be a problem with not getting full enough. But we started the cereals and teething bars at 10 months

Answer

I never bought any baby food, made my own. Give bottle after.

Answer

I gave my daughter homemade baby food and by the time she was 9-10 months old she just didn’t want it anymore. She would reach for our adult meals and would just blow raspberries whenever we attempted to give her purees instead. We started giving her whatever we were eating, within reason, and just made sure to chop it into very tiny pieces. Our doctor was very supportive of this and we never went back to baby food!

Answer

Our daughter is eight months so her primary nutrition is still breast milk, but she does eat solids as well. We give her solids everytime we have a meal now. We have never given her baby food from the store. We have the Baby Brezza One Step Food Maker so we just steam and blend veggies or fruits. We really just have this as a backup option right now. We started using the food maker that around five months, but she basically eats whatever we eat now. It's in smaller chunks of course. Basically we are following her lead at this point. During the day when my husband is at work, She and I sit down at the table (well she sits in her Stokke Tripp Trapp) and we have lunch together. Usually, she has whatever I am having. When my husband gets home from work and we sit down for dinner, we make sure she is there and she mostly eat the same veggies we are eating. She self-feeds. She mostly has her snacks in my office, she has a high chair in there as well. Her snacks are usually fruits. We're trying to figure out breakfast. Her breakfast is usually something like oatmeal or something of that nature. We're still trying to figure breakfast out for her. She's usually happy with a little oatmeal and some milk. Like I said, her primary nutrition is still breast milk, the solids are a "compliment", but she does like them. Her tastes are expanding. She likes the way she eats now a lot better than she liked the puree foods.

Answer

We tried purees for 2 weeks, but quickly gave up because he wasn’t interested. After that we went straight to adult food, cut in small pieces, and he loved it so much more. He was around 6 months when we started and he only had 2 teeth. My son is almost 10 months and he still gets around 4 bottles of formula a day, but he also gets 3 meals of solids (breakfast, lunch, dinner).
