Well, it was perhaps 2 days each stage (2 days just once a day, 2 days just twice a day, and then increased to three times a day and that's where we're at. It was honestly very quick but I guess my son's in his own groove with this. No doctor approval/advice, no restrictive caution. I've just let him lead the way and tell me what he wants. I let him try all the veggies first, and now we're starting with some meats and fruits too. I never really spaced out when he tried new ones either, thankfully he's not a picky/sensitive baby!

I started my son (6 months) with once a day, then twice, and finally moving towards three times a day (: different foods every time and he loves it

He said I can start 4/12-5 months if she seems ready and this last week she's been super into my food and I was playing with a spoon and her lower lip and she kept opening her mouth wanting it. She LOVED her peas I just don't know how often to give them to her. That's the one question I forgot to ask 🙈 I know you have to keep giving the same food for a week so they can get used to it and to make sure they're not allergic

Did your pedi tell you to give them? If not they don't really need them until 6m-1yr. It's just for fun/learning until then. You can serve a tiny amount after formula in the morning to let her play and taste

So the theory is that feeding solids to early can cause stomach issues.

Breastfeeding.

I am a HUGE breastfeeding advocate. No, I will NOT shame you if you decide to formula feed, and will not tolerate anyone else doing so on my post. Everyone has their own reasons on why they feed their child the way they see fit.

babybump_user ?????? me!! I most definitely will be!

Hey mamas! Once you started your babies on solids, how often did you breastfeed ? I know normally babies feed 8-12 times a day but once they start solids, how often do they then feed? I’m wondering for pumping and bottle feeding purposes. Thanks !
