My mom should be flamed

RufflesRamboRufflesRambo
in Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

From my baby book:

--2 weeks, started rice cereal
--6 weeks - strained vegetables, once a day
--8 weeks - meat and veggies, once a day

Surprisingly I am alive and well today! No wonder she was horrified that I didn't feed DS even cereal until he was 6 months old!

Come to think of it, I was walking before I was 7 months so maybe those veggies were doing me a world of good!  :)

    Wowza!

     There is a photo in DH's baby book of him sucking down a bottle of pure apple juice at about 6-7 weeks. I know it is pure apple juice because it is the color of a medium ale, lol.

    DH was fed yellow veggies at 2 weeks old and had cereal in his bottle at just a few days old.

    My mom said I was drinking 8 ounces the day they brought me home from teh hospital and cereal from a spoon at a week old... what a mess that must have been... I was drinking whole milk from a cup at 6 months, no bottle. I'm perfectly fine today! :)

    Joseph did cereal at 8w, fruits and veggies at 3m, etc., and was entirely on table food at 6m. (All with pedi approval. He had horrible colic that resolved when he started eating solids.)

    My mother was aghast that I waited so long. We have pictures of my sister eating a piece of pizza at 6m.

    My MIL wrote something for every day of my husband's first year. 3-4 entries were about him rolling off the or being dropped. My pedi wrote in my baby book to allow me to teeth on dog biscuits.

    My mom said that my brother came home from the hospital eating 8oz of milk so they started giving him cereal with every bottle at 1 or 2 weeks old.

    Well standing unassisted at 6 months and walking completely on my own at 7. My birthday is in June and all the pics of my first Christmas are me standing in from of the tree all by myself. I was kind of a freak of nature LOL!

    I KNOW!!!! My mom said at 3 weeks old she was feeding my brother (who weighed 12+lbs at birth) 8 oz of formula plus a jar of baby food and rice cereal EEKK!!!!! 

     Oh and my parents have video of me walking around (pretty well) 2 days before I turned 7 months old.

    Maybe we are all doing it wrong, hahaha, but I am NOT willing to chance it. :)
