At what age did you start feeding your baby food including rice cereal?! Just curious my daughters Pediatrician told me not until she is 6 months possible 5 months depending on her cues. I thought babies could have food starting at 4 months which she will be on the 20th.

It depends on the baby and how well they can hold their heads and that's why they check at the appointment my daughter didn't start eating solids until she was almost 6 months and now at 8 almost 9 she's eating finger foods.

yea I don't feed my baby food everyday more like if I see it I feed it to him but when he's at day care he gets some because he won't take a bottle so that's how they give him my milk haha

@mrsmoore, true every doctor is different. She never did say why but I figure it had to do with her digestion.

the stomach is just better developed by 4-6 months doesn't necessarily mean you have to give your baby food

@crunchymomma, My mom told me the same thing do not give in a bottle. Which I heard before was very bad. Well iI guess I will wait closer to 6 months or just start when she turns 6. Thank you.

yeah its about 6 months. the updated studies say never give rice cereal before 6 months, if at all, and absolutely never in a bottle. (yes some doctors still suggest this but it's because that was the protocol when they were in school and they aren't up to date with today's research)

@mommaof2boysrebecca, yeah I know rice cereal can help as well. I tried the A.R. Enfamil that had rice startch in it do to constant spitting up, she didn't do well on it though.

@mommaof2boysrebecca, Ok thank you thought it was something like that. I'm glad I asked her at her doctors appointment because I was going to start at 4 months.

5-6months there's studies saying introducing foods is hard on their digestive system
