🤦🏽♀️ you should not be giving your child baby food before 6 months old definitely not at 2months☹️
My mom was super pushy about me giving my boys food because they “need it” and it’ll help them sleep longer. I refused because even my sons pedi said six months, while some say four he was pretty strong on waiting a bit. And honestly it’s been great because both boys didn’t start showing an interest in food until 7/8 months. And we did BLW.
@alyboo102293, same! I think pushing foods too early is never a good idea. They get everything they need from milk.
@littleonemorning, yes I’m gonna hold off for as long as possible with my little man.
@alyboo102293, my youngest still has no interest. So I offer it every once and awhile but he’s just not feeling it and I’m in no rush.
I don’t have kids yet so I’m ignorant when it comes to baby raising & i didn’t know you can’t feed a baby before 6 months but my mom fed me solids when I was 2 months old & I won’t do it only because it might have been the cause of a severe chronic stomach condition that I suffer with so terribly today 😞 and my brother also has diabetes type 1. I’m not sure if there is a link at all...but I won’t do it just to be on the safe side.
👏🏽🙌🏽 yes momma, both of those things I believe so are link to being fed solids to early. Back then there was no information but now it’s great that the info is out there so what we go through we don’t have to pass down anymore. I’m so glad you saw this 💙.
@alyboo102293, yes thank you for the info. I appreciate it.
Between 4-6 months but continue to judge other women for asking questions
@alyboo102293, right back at you. ❤️ I never disagreed with you. I apologize for cursing. I love getting advice but you guys do come of as condescending sometimes.
@ataraxia, sorry you feel that way , most of us came over from another app & found our home here, some just either haven’t ran into bb girls or aren’t used to how it all worked over there, we are really nice if you get to know us just sometimes misunderstood 💙. I’m in hopes that the mother answers back so she can get the info she needs.
@alyboo102293, I came over here too from bb. I know you guys are nice but you’re also seasoned moms so unknowingly so sometimes some post come off like they should be common sense to others and it’s not always the case. Blessings to you and your family.
I know someone who had been feeding her baby rice cereal right after birth to make her sleep longer 🤦🏼♀️ Then she started veggies at 2.5 months. It took a boat load of people on Facebook to correct her.
☹️ I know I saw it and someone asked about it and it made me sad for that poor baby’s belly I couldn’t even imagine giving my LO solids this early his stomach would be so tore up.
@alyboo102293 awe. I understand starting them at 5 months. But poor baby.
@simply_mee, yea I can see a month early but 2/3 months is way to early
I know this is a little bit different I just need to vent a little lol, I constantly have people pressuring me all the time telling me I need to feed my son baby food because needs the nutrition or needs to gain more weight and I’m like he doesn’t want it so I’m not going to force him to eat it, milk is just fine until he’s a year old, and to what you said in your post yes I agree that’s far too early to be doing foods.
