Have you fed your baby raw carrot/veggies or salad yet? Wondering when I should start

Question

Answer

This post from Feeding Littles is very helpful for salad!

Answer

Cucumbers, tomatoes, olives, pickles - yes. Everything else is cooked or just not given yet (no lettuce yet for me)

Answer

Yep! But only with shredded carrot or matchstick carrots. And spinach not lettuce since my LO doesn’t like the bitterness of lettuce. But if we’re eating salad for a meal then she has salad for the meal as well

Answer

We haven’t tried raw carrots. But majority of everything else yes. He loves salad. He has his Molors so we give lettuce now. He loves loves it

Answer

He loves cucumbers and tomatoes but he hasn’t actually consumed raw carrots. Before he had teeth, I let him gnaw on a raw carrot but not actually eat it. We haven’t tried lettuce yet. He only has six teeth so I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t be able to chew it. My aunt gave him a little tiny bit of the tree part of raw broccoli the other day and after a few minutes of chewing on it, it came out in the exact same state it went in. A lot of the crunchy veggies don’t break down with saliva or gumming so I’m guessing more teeth are needed to actually chew them.

Answer

He likes raw everything but carrots 😂

Answer

I’ve given everything... it’s all okay if cut properly. He doesn’t like lettuce, but baby carrots cut in half lengthwise and dipped in ranch were pretty fun! Probably mostly because of the dip 😂

Answer

My son has had lettuce from a caesar salad before but no raw carrots
