My tot is 4 months outmoded is it ok to pass her gerber food and gerber liquid she does sit up on her own already..?
No.
It depends on how you are defining 'ok.' It's acceptable to start solids at 4 months .. IF baby is prepared (can eat from a spoon and digest it.) But there is absolutely no benefit to doing so, and some risk. (Early solids are associated near increased risk of allergies, and just replace the more valuable milk in her diet.) So why nick the chance?
Juice should wait until she can drink from a cup.
you really should wait until at least 6 months of age to impart your baby solid foods or juices
A lot of doctors are saying now that you should dally until the baby is 6 months to start food. There are signs to show if your child is ready for food or not though. You should start out with infant cereal or oatmeal first. Then go to veggies. Start out with one for a couple days, make sure they aren't allergic to it back you introduce a new one.
My daughter is 5 1/2 months old. I try everyday to give her food. It's be a long process so far to get her used to putting something else besides liquid in her mouth.
I would ask her doctor if it is okay first. also try rice cereal first...if she likes that after go onto fruit...Banana, Apple, peaches, pears...Only do the stage 1 food untill 6 months old...then turn onto stage 2 foods..also give each food then another 2-3 days after that to make sure she has no allergy...if there is a adjectives allergy in the family I would wait on that food for a bit.
I started my daughter on stage 1 food and rice and Oatmeal Cereal nearly a week ago when her doctor said it was okay..she loved it. I would also advise not to force the feedings...if she is wanting it fine...if not possibly wait a week or two and try again!! Good luck Source(s): DD born 2/24/2009
My son be eating baby food at four months, but only after the doctor have given us the go ahead.
I was all gung-ho on giving my daughter solids at 4.5 months and honestly she wasn't ready so we have to keep waiting and waiting until she was... I should have a moment ago waited to being with lol because of the couple time period in between each investigational food (because of possible allergies) she just today had peas for the first time (we did orange vegtables first: sweet potatoes, carrot, squash then green veggies: green beans and today peas) and then probably monday of next week we will start fruits and we hold never let her had juice because of adjectives the sugar. I would give it a month or two if I were you on the soilds and def longer on the juice Source(s): mommy to a 5.5 month antiquated baby girl
I say skulk for another couple of months
Never hand over a baby a cereal bottle as suggested in an earlier post!
the best thing to do is try cereal bottles. Until she sits up just do cereal bottles at night. And when she sits up try some 1st foods. Like fruits
Now, the liquid wouldn't hurt. We had to give my nephew pear juice because he be constipated. The doctor told us no more than 4 oz a day when they are 4 months old.
But it depends on your doctors specifications. This is what we were told by our doctor.
We continued feed pear juice to him, and he was fine. IT won't hurt to give her 4 oz a morning.
