Comments on giving solids. Nahla is 4 months but she's the size of a 6 month old. Should I still…

Once they sit up independently and reach for food... Usually 6-8 months

@beebaby Okay, how will I tell if she's doesn't take a food well? Other than hives and the common signs. (Stocking up on my information for the next couple of months)

@zachattackmomma well she's reaching for my food and she still topples over every now and then. She'll probably be sitting up independently by the next few weeks.

@zachattackmomma I seriously wouldn't ask this if I didn't think she would be able to handle it.

@beebaby so like the same food for one week? Or one food once and wait that week until you introduce another?

@beebaby Okay, thanks

@nahla, well, momma knows best but you could always ask your Pediatrician too 👍

@zachattackmomma I did, and he said 6 months. And rice cereal about two weeks before

@nahla, I believe the pediatricians choice for this has to do with how the digestive system matures and less to do with size of the baby 😊 we waited until 6 months also and my son did great, he loves food

@zachattackmomma okay, that makes more sense. I give her small taste of my food here and there, it's barely anything at all, but she loves it and always coos for more. But I haven't really gave her anything else. I guess I'll wait.

@hannibelle she has great head control and she's practically sitting on her own (still as small pillows on the side but she leans forward.) I want to test her out but I don't want to be frowned upon by her doctor. He's kinda intimidating.

@hannibelle what the heck is that? First time I've heard of that.

@samanthapap okay. Thanks

Yes wait til 6 months!
