Your baby should not be eating solids at 3 months old. Not even a little bit! Breastmilk or formula, THAT'S IT!

Bravo, OP! @alauraandabdielsmom Sometimes being supportive means telling people things they don't want to hear. A doc recommending solids before 3 mo is literally going against AAP guidelines. That's not judgement. That's fact. https://www.aap.org/en-us/about-the-aap/aap-press-room/pages/Many-Moms-Not-Following-Expert-Advice-o

@sealion, & @alauraandabdielsmom....thank you ! I know everyone has OPINIONS, but its one thing to take it to far and comment on how a dr is wrong. I will dismiss myself from this post !

Okay. Before this goes to far let's take a minute and breath. There's no need for judging what other doctors do or don't do. We are here for support, if you see something you don't agree with please move on. -Preggie Moderator 💚

I'm not being judgemental. I'm just stating the facts.

Okay ladies. Over the passed 19 years it's changed lots. My mom had me 19 years ago and had my brother just one year ago. And I have 4 other siblings between him and I. My mom said every pregnancy they changed it up because they were learning new things. My mom hates the idea of solid foods so early but she does it the old school way. Some of your dr's may just be more old school or may be more cautious. Your personal dr's also know way more details about the health of your babies and what they can handle. I personally do not know, I'm a first time mommy and not due until March. But I don't think it makes anyone an unfit parents either way. Especially because most of us listen to our dr's. Who are we to question the person that actually read our child's vitals and what not. The lady at the Health department has admitted to me that it's constantly changing because they come up with new scenarios and effects and what not. Don't be too quick to judge. If baby didn't want solid food their bodies would let mom know. Mom or dr. It's definitely not something to be judge mental about though. I have obviously not made it that far yet but I don't personally think anyone should pass judgement on a matter of what someone's dr tells them is okay. @mrs.walton26 @mamajustice @shamrockjemm @teamjayce2015

My dr told me to start my son on food at 3 months...

i was told starting only cereal at 4 months. wait a week, start a green vegtable week later, wait a week start another and to stay away from mixture foods or acidy fruits until 5 months or so.

My doctor said six months at the least! If there's a chance your baby might be at risk, why take the chance.......I mean, it's only the safety of your CHILD!?!?! Ya one doctor said yes, and one no......but why even chance it? Not unless your child isn't gaining weight. There should be no reason to start any sooner then six months.

I agree with OP. No baby should eat baby food or baby cereal at 3 months old. Only formula or breastmilk and just starting a seperate amount of one ounce of water a day.

You guys are all sitting here talking about "oh my baby was fine" but do you know how many babies AREN'T fine when you do that? You got lucky. Introducing solids that early poses a huge risk. I work with babies every day and I HATE seeing them come in sick because their parents decided to rush them. It's really sad.

yeah I will be giving my son baby food along with cereal .and breast milkn

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾✌🏾️

well then I guess my dr is bad ?! My son is now 6 & hes fine. I also started him on cereal @ 3 months and dr was okay with it as long as baby was fine.

My son also started solids at about 3 months old and is a very healthy 18 pound 5 month old. Of course he developed very quickly as well.

No good doctor would be okay with that.

My son ate solids at 3 months. He wad fine & dr was fine with it. Every mother is different I see.
