Babies: 6 - 9 Months

Blueberries ?

I make my own baby food and was wondering when I should give my son blueberries?  The doctor said I can start stage 2 foods.  I researched blueberries and found mixed reviews.  For those of you who make your own baby food, when will you give your child blueberries? 

Re: Blueberries ?

  • DD already gets them.  No problems for her.

    There's no reason to hold off anymore since formal recommendations changed in 2008 (unless your family has a history of allergies to berries or milk or eggs or something).

  • I mix them into other fruits.  They are a strong, sometimes tart, flavor on their own.

  • I mix them with bananas and sometimes cereal.

    They stain like crazy though if your kid has a case of the barfs. Get the chlorox ready.....

  • Puree them with pears. One of LOs favs.
  • DD loves them- we just went blueberry picking this weekend, so she's been enjoying them the past few days. :)
  • DS has been eating them since about 6 months.  He loves frozen ones.  They are a great treat for teething.
