About feeding veggies...

Ok so I've started DS on veggies. The Ped said to do the yellows first before introducing the greens.

What are the yellows that I should be doing? So far he's had carrotts and I just started on Sweet potatoes. Squash is next. Any other ones?

I think that's it with the yellows... I think the first veggies are carrots, sweet potatoes, squash, peas and beens - I'm pretty sure that's it.

I'm pretty sure it's just those two unless I'm missing something...

Not sure what veggie mixes are out there, but yeah, once your son has tried all of them with no reaction then you can mix and match! Have fun! Chat Icon

Re: About feeding veggies...

Thanks guys. I'm mixing them up will be lots of fun...Chat Icon

DS has had the 4 fruits of applesauce, pears, peaches, and bananas. Could he have a stage 2 jar that consisted of say pears and apricots for example? Or does he need to try the apricots as a single ingredient first.

No, I think if he had the pears and was fine, then you can do the pears/apricots because (knock wood) if anything happens you'll know what it is - just don't try anything else new that day! Chat Icon

Why yellows first?



Every ped. recommends a different way - the yellows are sweeter so you have more success with those. Some peds. say start with the greens so the child gets used to the "yuckier" kinds of veggies first. Same reason why a lot of peds. recommend starting with veggies over fruit.

I did fruit first and then yellow veggies.
