I started my son son solids when he was 3 months. He was breast fed for 2 years never took formula. He never seemed to be full so I talked to his dr and she said it was ok. He was a big baby and always was hungry plus he had acid reflux and threw up puddles after every meal

Lol oh then you got them good 😂 @rachel8792

@jgarciamua, He wont write on the walls, hes scared to haha. But playdoh, he smashes everywhere, and I mean everywhere. In the tile grout, in the closet hidge, oh he hit it hard haha. Playdoh is my parents cryptonite hahaha

Yea if they really need it because of their weight or like your situation then i guess its ok 🙂 @kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom

I would of bought him a sharpie lmao jk 🙂 @rachel8792

@jgarciamua, See thats what I want. Im ok if he decides later on that he wants to try it, and likes it, but soda is not necessary in anyway. My parents just have a thing for going against my parenting wishes, but I always get back lol. My little bro is 2, and when they gave my son juice and powerade behind my back, I bought my bro playdoh hahaha. They havent tried it since, but they joke about it

i know were your coming from. my little man is only three months and my mom is suggesting that i start him on baby cereal. im like he doesn't need it he is just fine on my breast milk. he is 15lb and 24 inches at 13weeks. so i think he is just fine.

I think there are some exceptions (my son included... #preemieproblems) but I agree that for healthy, term babies will be fine on just breastmilk. Food under one is just for fun. My itty bitty hit a roadblock in weight gain and I really didn't want to do formula, and then he started showing signs of being anemic so we introduced foods. He loves oatmeal cereal, but he's still a total boob baby.

Thats true! Omg i would die!! My mom actually never let me drink soda i started drinking it when i was a teen. @rachel8792

Awee, hey at least its fruit... my parents have been dying to give my son soda, and I refuse to give my son anything other than water or milk. They have already snuck apple juice, and powerade in, but thank goodness he didnt like it.

@rachel8792, well since my mom gives her a little taste of fruit i have no other choice. 😑

I know!!! I might give my baby little tastes of food bc i know she will want to taste it but to feed her every day NOPE @jadasmommy_

I've seen babies that are EBF until one and are chunky and healthy! Idk why people get so anxious to stick food in their mouths. Like you said it's just for fun.

Dang, I didnt know this. I breastfed my son for 14 months, but he started solids at 6 months, and very eager too. What will you do when your baby starts reaching for foods or cries for it? I only ask because girl, believe me once they are mobile, they want anything and everything in their mouth haha

Its recommended to start but its not necessary because solids before one its just for fun 😬 breastmilk has all the good stuff 😁 @rachel8792

you want to wait a whole year before giving any solids? I thought 6 months was what is recommended for EBF or even formula fed babies?
