Babies: 9 - 12 Months

raspberries for an 8 1/2 month old okay?

I bought earth's best stage 2 pears and raspberries but heard that babies dd age should not eat strawberrries. aren't the two fruits similar?

Re: raspberries for an 8 1/2 month old okay?

  • Apparently not, because the books and pedi told me to not feed strawberries until 1 year.  I have given DS both raspberries and blackberries though.  But I agree with you -- I don't know what the difference is.

  • Our doctor encourages blueberries, said raspberries are "OK", and strawberries are a no until 12 months. I dissed her and gave Caroline strawberries at 9 months...she had diarrhea for like 10 hours. So...I'd skip the strawberries.

    But we feed Caroline raspberries often. She's had no reaction.?

  • thanks everyone!
  • My Ped says no strawberries or raspberries but blueberries are ok... annoying that they mix them into baby foods though! ?
  • I've given DD rasberries and blueberries with no issues starting at about 8 1/2 months. Will wait on strawberries.
