Solids..

in Babies: 3 - 6 Months
My DS turned 6 months on the 24th so we've been introducing solids. Before we started solids his schedule was like this:
Wakes up between 5-6 am - feed 6 oz bottle along with cereal
Goes to baby sitter from 730-2ish 3ish
Then gets bottle 630-7pm along with cereal then we do our bedtime routine.

Where do I throw solids into the mix? Can anybody give me an idea what their feeding schedule is like?

    Cereals are considered a solid, PP is correct.  You don't have to even feed them cereal at all if you don't want to.  We've chosen to skip rice cereal, and do infant oatmeal instead.  Our pedi told us to do oatmeal for at least a week or tw

    Like PP said, cereals are solids. Here is a chart that I like to show what is best for baby by age that factors in digestibility, chances of allergic reaction, etc. Our pedi was fine with us skipping cereal when it was time and going right to solids li

    LOs primary source of nutrition is still formula or breast milk so I would do a normal feed when LO wakes, introduce solid a few hours later in between the first and second feed etc. that way if there is ever a reaction you will see it during the day. Sin

    Try avocado to start. Introduce one new food at a time, waiting 35 days between new ones. Also start in the morning so that if LO has a reaction, you don't miss it by sleeping through it.
