Hey there
My son turned 4 months today and i'm starting him on soilds.
He's on Avacado and next week is Banana's.
I'm going to try and stay away fro jared baby food and cereal as his main source of food.
Yesterday was my first go at it and it went pretty good. ↑ |

Thanks so much, I will be trying Avacados today. ↑ |
Also thanks for the link. ↑ |
im starting Tyler at 5 1/2 months, just because im waiting for my husband to get back, but i am also making all of his baby foods, and i got a few books on baby purees and i red through it and this stuff looks good enough for me too eat LOL ↑ |
its called Top 100 Baby Purees
100 quick and easy meals for a happy healthy baby ↑ |
Lauren i didn't know you were doing the homemade too!
Ok, now what gagets did you buy?
Are going to buy the freezing cubes and baby food grinder? ↑ |
How much milk is Tyler drinking now? ↑ |
well we have a veggie steamer/ rice cooker thingy, and ive never used it so i guess thats what im going to use, and then im going to get one of those mini food processor things that are really cheap, like 20 bucks and thats what im going to use, along with some cube trays ↑ |
im not sure how much he drinks now, becuae hes breast fed, but when i pump and give him a bottle, he only eats like4 oz at a time, but im not surelol ↑ |
you guys should get this book, its really informative and has lots of pictures.. i love pictures lol
and it has good mixtures of the foods too, and it was cheap, i got it of amazon ↑ |
I'm looking up the book online now ↑ |
the first veggie in this book is carrots ↑ |
How much did you pay for the book? ↑ |
Carrots should wait Lauren. I didn't give them until 8 months. They can be high in nitrates... even in the jars of food. It can cause blue baby syndrome... In the baby food class I took they said to wait until at least 8 months, although they should be ok after 6. ↑ |
ok ill wait
umm i think like 10 15 bucks ↑ |
what is blue baby syndrome? ↑ |
lauren i have the same book and it has good recipe ideas but it is not in order of when they should be given by age. your pediatrican should help with when you should introduce certain foods. the link opheilia posted has the months for them. ↑ |
