My Ped appt

DS is almost 7 mos
At his Ped appointment he said "ok, he can start eating everything" Meats, and table food



I said...table food? He said yea soft foods of course

Does this not sound odd?

Re: My Ped appt

I just went to my DS 6 month appointment and he said that by the next time I see him at 9 months he should be up to 3 meals a day. He said after the 9th month appointment we would start our DS on protein ( meat, cheese, etc.) He said that you usually start protein around 8-9 months. I am sure every ped has their own beliefs. I would research it a bit and do what makes you feel comfortable. I am going to wait until 9 months to start protein. My DS has not even gone through all of his fruits yet.

Thanks

Re: My Ped appt

at 6 months I was told to be creative so that is not weird.

Re: My Ped appt

I just got an issue of Parenting Magazine in the mail and they have a helpful chart of what kids should eat.

Sounds a bit early to me yes. He could still devlop allergies to things?

We disscussed it at the 9-10 mark..introducing table foods.
