my daughters almost four months, i have her appt coming up soon, but i just wondering did any of you…

I asked about cereal, and my Dr said that was ok, just a couple teaspoons and super thin.... he also said not to do fruits and veggies (do veggies first) until at least 5 months

and I tried the cereal and I think my daughter got more on her bib than actually in her stomach lol she will be 5 months on the 7

lol awww!!! yea ill talk to her dr and see what she says, im in no rush to feed her, i just feel so bad when shes staring us down while we eat haha i cant breastfeed and eat at the same time @sarahdrew

lol I feel you on that.... my daughter fusses every time I sit down to eat lol

my pediatrician doesn't want us introducing oatmeal until 6 months shes very by the book of american pediatrics. but each doc is different.

i probably wouldnt give her oatmeal but maybe like some mushed up carrots or something lol i wanna make my own baby food @meganeileen6

well baby oatmeal cereal lol its better than rice cereal. i do too! like avocado & pumpkin:)

I did rice cereal at first after doctor said I could start. then doctor said it was okay to start baby food, suggestion she gave me was try a veg first then a fruit but of a different color, then veg again and fruit, just switch it up after 3 to 4 days on the same food. and try to have different colors, not 2 of the same back to back, in case she didn't like one she wouldn't think it was the same food. every now and then I would mix rice cereal with the food to thicken it a bit and hold her over.

i was thinking of mixing breastmilk with it @babygluttony

I started around 4 mos with the rice cereal and maybe 5 mos with the baby food. She stayed on stage 1s for a long time because when it came time to up the stages she would gag on the chunkier foods.
