Babies: 9 - 12 Months

Is it ok to give DS a piece of an orange?

He likes sucking on it if I hold it.  I going to put a piece in the mesh feeder.  It isn't too acidic is it?

  • pretty sure it is fine.

    i think every baby's sensitivity is different. you will just need to watch. we give dd pretty much all fruits and veggies now.

  • I've given him orange. The first time I only gave one piece to see if he had a reaction and we've been giving him clementines ever since.

  • A piece is fine. Just not a whole orange (which I'm sure you wouldn't do anyways!) :)
  • Mandarine Oranges are one of my DS's favorite foods, he can't eat them quick enough and always wants more when they're gone.  I've been giving them to him since about 10 months.

  • They are fine for most babies. My DD loves them but she gets a wicked diaper rash from them :(

  • DS LOVES oranges, but they give him the runs so he doesn't get them any more.
