good morning/afternoon ladies when is the right time to start feeding my baby food? I'm going back to college and working. I asked one of my friends and she said right now but my baby is only 2 1/2 months old. hope to hear your opinion😊
I waited until 6 months, but my baby never really showed much interest until then... He was all about the boob. Lol.
im starting now to feed my son rice cereal. I knew he was ready because he would always reach for my spoon and bring it to his mouth, would get fussy if i didnt let him taste what i was eating, he can sit up and yeah. but it just felt like the right time. i have to let him eat the rice cereal for 2 weeks, then can start baby food.
2.5 months is pretty early, most docs say 4 months but a lot of moms wait a little longer, give it a shot at four months, if she spits it out Or isn't interested than she's not ready. I started my son with table foods at 6 months due to begging and baby food at about 4.5 months.
Absolute earliest is 4 months. 6 months is recommended. I waited till 5 and a half months. Your baby will usually give you signs when she's ready.
The signs are when baby starts to watch you eat and seems interested in it and when they start to mimic you as you eat . That's one good sign that they are ready to try food
