How often are you guys feeding baby? Are we feeding them purées everyday? Our pediatrician gave us the okay at our 4 month appointment but didn’t really get into detail. I’d love to know what’s working for you guys.

Uhhhh i honestly havent fed him everyday we are just getting over being sick in my home and im waiting till he trys apples then i should be feeding him everyday

We haven’t started yet, even though our pediatrician said we could, because he also told us that once we start, we can’t stop and baby will expect it every day once we start - so we want to wait until we are ready to feed him every day. But he told us once a day would be fine when starting out since baby’s nutrition comes from breast milk or formula

Just started I am doing it everyday. Our peds said no more than twice daily… I usually will do it just once though.

My daughter is 5mo and we started introducing when she was 4.5 mos.

To be honest, we just give it to him every few days. I’m sure you could do everyday! But my lil buddy is so messy and who needs to take 2 baths everyday? He likes to splash me too much for all that. So we give him a new flavor, then a day or so later do it again. And then in a few days do a new one. He’d probably be fine everyday, but mentally, I would not so he’s good with every few days.

we’ve been doing every few days too and i was so scared that i was starving her because our ped told us to look at it as an art project and not really a necessity right now. girl reading these comments i got soooo scared.

My super cool baby book says not everyday, more like a couple times a week and a new flavor once a month or something, just until they get the hang of it

as long as she’s drinking milk and stuff still, you’re golden. Don’t do food instead of milk, just in addition to.

We just started three days ago but have done it every day. We are currently doing green beans and I have read you are supposed to give the same food three days in a row so you can watch for any potential allergies. We are giving it to her once a day around dinner time, after she’s already had her milk.

yes we’ve been giving her about 4 spoon fulls of avacado after her afternoon bottle

Yes started on sweet potato puree a few times a day

We’ve been doing it like every other day or every two days! We’ll ramp it up as we get closer to 5.5/6 months!

We have we are only doing a little once a day one of the little containers 1 oz I think last my boys 2 days (I put in reusable container and throw away in 24 hours) right now they are trying to get the hang of swallowing it. They try to eat it like the are drinking a bottle lol 😆 food at this age if for fun and exposure!
