Just asking, so no need for rude comments. But... has anyone started their baby on baby food early? My son is a big boy, he's over 20 pounds already & eats 7 ounces of formula every 3 hours. He goes up on how much formula he eats, but never waits more that 3 hours before he's hungry again. I understand that he's a big baby & he needs to eat more than your average sized baby, but I'm worrying about his weight gain. I give him a small amount of rice cereal in is bottle at bedtime & he does fine with that, I'm gonna ask his pediatrician about it when he goes next week.

@brafordfamily22, yeah I started adding a little bit to his bottles at 6 weeks & he LOVES it. That bottle is gone in 2.5 seconds lol.

Our pediatrician had us start my son at 4 months mostly because he had little to no interest in his bottles. We started with just plain stage 1 veggies 1 at a time with a 4-5 day window in between trying a new one then at around 5 1/2 months we were allowed to start introducing single fruits. He's 8 months now, small but a healthy weight (he's long but only weighs 18 pounds) and does well with feeding generally 3-4 6 5-6 oz bottles a day now and 3 food meals a day (1/2 containers of the stage 2 foods)
