I have no idea what to feed my child

JLS0320

Besides purees, we are making our way through the baby food flavors but after that I have no idea where to go! It's so confusing and we don't have another pedi appt. until 9 mos.

try to encourage self feeding.. if he has great head support and is trying to crawl i would go ahead with puffs.. and teething biscuits. i give charlotte avocado pieces.. and lots of stuff in her mesh feeder. today we did polenta and potatoes cubes that i mash slightly when i give them to her..

regular food.  Real rice, real oatmeal, real bits of meat (fish is especially easy), regular banana, applesauce, cheerios, avocado pieces, sweet potato pieces.  I never did puff with DD because they are per calorie super expensive and don't really have a lot of nutritional value.  Also skipped  the gerber (stage 3,4...9) foods, since we prefer not to eat super processed food and it requires too much label reading to find the good ones.

Did you ask your pedi about this at all at the 6m appt? Does your LO have any food allergies or a family history of allergies, eczema or asthma? Just make sure you know what to be careful of based on her risk factors and beyond that, try what the others mentioned.
