Poll: Have you started solids?
This discussion has been closed.
Re: Poll: Have you started solids?
I voted yes, not interested, but I want to point out that we just started last night
. He was not a fan of his carrots, but I think today I'll thin them out with some BM.
ETA: I do want to point out that Ty has been showing a lot of interest in our food. Last week alone he grabbed food out of my hand three times while I was snacking and holding him. He managed to get 2 string cheeses in to his mouth before I could snag them back. Thankfully I was able to get the pepperoni from my pizza out of his grip on Saturday!
i voted SS: J has been on oatmeal for a month. he's grabbing at our food and will yell at us while we eat if we don't give him a spoon to practice. we're starting sweet pot on thanksgiving and really hope he's good with it!
Lol- no one messes with a mama bear's pizza!
We started less than a week ago. Maya has taken to it really well- I'd read so much on this board about LO's not really swallowing much at first but M is eating whatever I give her. She had avocado for 4 days and we moved onto carrots last night- she ate 1 oz of carrots (with BM) earlier today and probably would have eaten a second oz if I'd had it defrosted.
I actually would have waited a little longer but DH was really pushing for it.

LO is showing pretty much all the signs, but we are waiting until 6 months per my research and medical advice.
We are going to give her some food to play with on Thanksgiving, but I don't expect her to necessarily eat it. We won't offer routinely until 6 months. She's doing just fine without them
I voted SS. We tried some purees but he's not interested/not ready so we stopped and will try again in a few weeks.
I'm thinking we might wind up doing a bit of BLW with him. He did enjoy gumming a very well steamed baby carrot. He didn't eat it and used it more as a teething toy but he seemed to like it.
This is us... LO Loves food!
Lol! This exactly! She will eat an entire serving in one sitting. She wants it quickly too. If you aren't fast enough, she will make a funny noise until you put it in her mouth.

same here. We started her on solids around 4 1/2 months per our pedi's instructions and she ate like champ from day 1.
Yep! This is us, too. Started solids just before 5 months and haven't looked back. He made a face the first few times he had apples, but other than that he's eaten everything I've given him like a champ.
This- exactly word-for-word (including the icecream part!) DD is almost sitting completely unassisted. I was going to wait until 6 months, but she grabs everything off my plate that she can, and continually grabs my silverware and cups. And she lost her tongue-thrust reflex. I think she is ready for Thanksgiving.

BFP!! 8/29/16 --> EDD: 5/11/17....it's a GIRL!!!
We added rice cereal to their bottles when they were very small because of reflux. They were miserable. They were just too immature to digest it.
We tried again when the girls were six months old, and they were not plagued by gas or constipation. It was a much better experience.
