Starting baby purées giving one ingredient ones only?

Question

I will be starting solids soon and I just read online that you have to give one ingredient baby purées in the beginning is this true? Makes sense so for how long would I have to before I can introduce baby purées with more than one ingredient?

Answer

Start with one food and use it for 3 days, once you know there’s no allergy you can add another. 
I know a family that didn’t do it that way and it took almost 3 weeks to figure out their baby was allergic to bananas

Answer

Be sure that baby is 6m old for any solids and all signs of readiness met. All major health organizations recommendations are 6m for solids. Drs aren’t nutritionists, they practice medicine not nutrition therefore often giving out dated information. 
If you’re interested, look in BLW. It has great benefits for baby and yourself.

Answer

The only foods I followed that for were ones where there's a family history of sensitivity.

Answer

Allergies can develop at any point in life, so it’s up to you if you want to do the 3-day thing or not. If you’re more comfortable sticking with 3 days then moving on to another food, then go ahead and do it that way. Sticking with one thing does have the benefit of allowing baby to get used to that taste. Some babies are full throttle love every food ever right away, and others need repeated exposure to get on board.

Answer

We do single food so we can know what triggered an allergic reaction if there is one. If you’ve done bananas and you’ve done apples, then go ahead and do a banana-apple-pear blend because then you know it’s pears. We started to do more blends with less worry about allergens when he was over a year because he hadn’t reacted to anything by that point.

Answer

You are supposed to do one food for 3 days in a row.
