Grapes need to be cut in quarters, LENGTHWISE, not cross wise. Baby can almost anything you eat that is mashed. Ground turkey or beef, cooked with a little tomatoe paste for flavor. Pastine, orzo, yogurt with baby cereal in it to thicken it. Frozen blueberries, kiwi, graham crackers, fish, cottage cheese, watermelon or cantalope (sliced paper thin.Pancakes and french toast, or toast with a little butter, in very thin strips. As long as he has done alright with egg yolks the little bit of eggwhite in these two things is not important. But do not feed a lot of eggwhite, strawberries, chocolate, oranges (other than mandarin), or other citrus fruits. Hope this helps. He needs a lot more exposure to all different kinds of foods. Try not to introduce too many at once unless he has already had them in another form, to make sure he is not allergic.

IIRC, I moved onto point 2 at around 7 months. yet my daughter did not even initiate solids till 5 a million/2 months. there is not any rush. At this age (5 a million/2 months) babies incredibly don't have solids in any respect (concepts have replaced considering the fact that my daughter grow to be a sprint one and contemporary suggestion is to attend till 6 months for many babies) and in case you do decide directly to furnish, they are one hundred% for exciting, and shouldn't replace breastmilk or formulation. So... if toddler enjoys his solids, you could furnish some bites once or twice an afternoon. yet there is not any rush to characteristic a number of of of latest ingredients, or boost the form of diverse ingredients. he remains at extreme danger for hypersensitive reaction and would not prefer solids.

You can give your baby grapes if you peel them and cut them in half.
Toast with Butter is good
Avocado cut up
Garden burger cut up
cheese
cooked noodles (macaroni)
Kiwi Fruit cut up
canned pears cut up
canned mandarin oranges cut up
canned green beans broken into thirds (my 8 month old loves them)
Jelly Sandwich
diced tomato
dice a sweet potato, steam for 15-20 min until tender but keeps it's shape
steamed broccoli florets (just the heads)

One more bit of advice...you may want to introduce one or two new foods a week. Watch for any food allergies, my daughter had a few and it is much easier on you to narrow it down if the list is shorter. Good Luck!

Yikes! Don't give your son grapes!! That is a major choking hazard for little babies!! Among other things NOT to gove are pieces of hot dog, nuts, honey and peanut butter. As far as what to give, Gerber makes fruit and veggie puffs that are tiny enough not to choke on but big enough for little ones to pick up. They also dissolve pretty easily in your mouth. They have cherry, banana, strawberry apple, sweet corn and sweet potato. My daughter has tried all of the flaors and she just loves them! (I have tried them too, just to see what they taste like, and believe me, they do dissolve nicely.) Walmart makes their own brand of these puffs which I would assume are very comparable. You can also try soft pieces of fruit like cooked apples or fresh peaches and pears. I tried canned veggies like those carrot slices. Just heat them up and make sure they are in small enough pieces!
Sophie will be 1 on Thursday and now she eats just about anything - small pieces of pasta, rice, small pieces of american cheese slices - you name it! As long as you supervise your son and give him time to try his new foods just about anything soft enough to mash between his gums will be fine for him! If he doesn't seem to like a new food, just try again in a few days, sometimes it takes a little bit of time for babies to accept something new. Good luck!!

Cheerios are good but watch him to make sure he can chew them properly. Little bits of cooked apple, soft toast, etc. Gerber makes little puffs that dissolve easily. My son loved them.

Cereal would be fine. However, don't give him too much at one time. You can also give him a piece of soft bread.

Peas and cooked carrots are nice and soft. If you're going for harder, you can't go wrong with Cheerios!
