Starting solids?

Question

How and when is everyone introducing solids? 
We are ebf and 16 weeks old. We fly home the 28th to Australia to two week hotel quarantine. So she will be 4.5 months old when we get home. I’m wanting to start letting her explore homemade puréed veggies/fruits. I’ll let her have a little taste once or twice a day after a feed on the boob. 
What is everyone else doing?!

Answer

AAP recommends 6 months .

Answer

We got cleared, but we tried and he’s not interested. 
We’ll continue to introduce purées until he’s ready and then when he turns 6 months we’ll introduce BLW.

Answer

We also started a few home made purees just after turning 4 months. My boy is SUPER interested though and is taking to it big time! I only do it twice a day and it's after nursing him almost non stop during the day. I started both of my girls this same way too and they are great eaters now! If baby isn't interested then I wouldn't push it but if they are there is no reason not to at least try a little bit.

Answer

Whenever she can sit up unsupported (she seems to be close)! We will go straight to BLW I think. She’s 16 weeks too.

Answer

6mo. When the AAP recommends. We waited til then with my first and tried purees for a little bit (like a week) before I learned about BLW. I'll probably skip the purees and go straight to BLW this time.

Answer

His pediatrician told me until 6 months

Answer

My son is 4 months and we’re starting homemade purées. We got cleared by the pediatrician.
