my daughter will be 7 months old on july 27 she does anyone think it would hurt her to start stage 2 baby food

Question

she is on stage 2 fruits and veggies i want to know if its too early for like the chicken and meat soups she sits on her own has 2 theeth and chews fine

Answer 1

If she is requiring more milk feeds, and getting hungry more often, it may be time to try her on pureed stews and soups. Give her a little bit along with the vegetables, and perhaps encourage her to use the spoon, though it will get messy! Always keep an eye on her as she still can choke.

Answer 2

The lines of pureed meat the make are just fine. As long as she has some of the "chewing" motions she will be ok. You can even thin it out a little with water, formula, or breastmilk. It's all just a matter of what she will like, or if she will like it.
I know personally my daugher hated the pureed meats but I know plenty of babies who have loved them.
I say go for it try her on the meat. If you think that it's too thick thin it out a little. But you said she was already on stage 2 fruits and veggies, the consistency should be the same.
If you do try it and you think she isn't ready then wait. Remember you don't have to follow any books here, go by your gut.

Answer 3

If you look at the ingredients on 1 and 2, the only difference is amounts, i moved my son to 2(he is 7 months) when he was still hungry after eating container of 1. He doesnt have any teeth yet, but he eats everything we give him. Just make sure if you try something new, to only do it one at a time, in case it didnt agree with them, you know which food was the culprit. I also read labels, I wondered why there was applesauce and dutch apple, one they add sugar too, same with peaches and peach cobbler.

Answer 4

i do not imagine so. Speech issues do ensue in autism yet which could no longer the significant signal. Does she cuddle you? Does she like being picked up? even as she is picked up does she sit down on your hip in a mushy way? Does she have any obsessions, like lining toys up instead of taking area in with them? If sure to those questions then autism is a chance. If the answer isn't any then i imagine it truly is exceptionally in all probability that your youngster is purely experiencing truly a delay in speech developement. youthful toddlers learn at distinct speeds and yours will likely seize up immediately yet speech therapy should be quite functional even only one or 2 practise to get some assistance and tricks to assist encourage use of words. you could also imagine about utilising toddler signing... its some thing which will be functional contained in the little while period to augment useful communication so she does no longer get pissed off. attempt no longer to be stricken too a lot... in a 365 days or 2 she'll likely be chatting better than you understand what to do with! : ) xx

Answer 5

Try it, it couldn't hurt. Just keep an eye on her because she might not be used to chewing. If you are still worried just puree the baby food a little to make the pieces a little smaller. Also, try taking a piece of food (whatever you want) and putting it up to her mouth and letting her nibble on it to get her used to chewing.

Answer 6

only your daughter knows for sure if she is ready.... just watch her carefully and give her small bits at first......my son when basically straight from stage 2 to the graduate foods and wasn't on stage 2 for long so get ready. oh yeah try the fruit and veggie puffs by gerber they melt fast in their mouths but helps them learn how to chew. good luck

Answer 7

Definitely check with your pediatrician first, but from the sounds of it she could handle some new foods! The main concern is the chewing/swallowing reflex when you move to the thicker feeds. Remeber though, as with anytime you start a new food...always give it a few days to check for allergic reactions and such!

Good luck with that expanding appetite!!!

Answer 8

We gave our 2 year old teething cookies when those teeth came in and they seemed to do little help..Soft meats can work, but i suggest cutting it up into little pieces..Funny as it may sound, as long as it was mixed with ice cream or mashed potatoes, our son would eat it

Answer 9

She could have been eating any and all of the stage 2's by now.

Answer 10

her stomach might not be developed enough to digest tht kind of food. u can start with extremely small amounts nd see if she has diareha or stomach pains, which means she cant digest it. if she can, then slowly increase the amount until u reach a good amount.
