What are the best foods to start a baby with? She is 4 months old and the doctor said 4-6 months so…

I'm starting my son with baby oatmeal because it's packed with iron, that will help their RBC. Then I'm gonna go to stage 1 fruits and vegetables!

We did carrots first at 4.5 months lol. Her doc said she likes to have parents to orange veggies, green veggies, and then fruit. That's not to say something else won't work better for you guys.

@keepingupwithhenry, @craftycroft thank you both I need help lol

@sammy_riley2016, our pediatrician wanted us to start off with applesauce. He didn't like it. So we did bananas, carrots, sweet potatoes, sweet pea, pear. All four days in a row for any allergies. He's not too into the fruits but he loves the vegetables. We started at 4 months. In addition to oatmeal in the morning.

@nurseriri, did you still give him milk like formula? Or breast?

we did carrots. he loves orange food now lol

Yes he still gets the breast. I'm exclusively breastfeeding. @sammy_riley2016 I asked my pediatrician if it made a difference giving him fruits or vegetables initially and she said it doesn't matter. And she was right. One week fruit the other veggies and so on and so forth.

I think our first food (besides oatmeal) was sweet potatoes. We did the same thing, alternated introducing veggies with fruits.

Thank you all!
