how old should my baby be before i give him 3rd stage foods?

Answer 1

Seven to eight months. Is your child feeding themselves any finger baby foods yet. It may depend on your child, and adult supervision. Good luck you will know when your child is ready

Answer 2

According to Gerber I believe they say when the child is crawling well. On the other hand I gave my latest child 3rd stage foods at approx. 4 months. He was sitting up a little however, not crawling yet. The other foods for the younger babies was not filling him up like it should. He is now 13 months old and doing well. Talk to your doctor as well to make sure that the baby does not have any problems that might get worse if you feed him 3rd stages.

Answer 3

I'm a mum of a 5 and a 3 year old would love to help but I'm an aussie and not sure what you mean by " stage 3 foods"

Answer 4

Mine never liked 3rd stage foods. I don't think it's necessary. Just move them along to table foods.

Answer 5

If you read the jr it says 9 months but by then you can give them table food..

Answer 6

i would say 9 months and up. mind you it really depends on a few factors. Such as how many teeth your baby already has. Does he/she have enough teeth to chew it all. Also does your baby chew enough before swallowing. Some babies gluttonize and swallow too fast.

Answer 7

That depends on if he is wanting to eat that much. It is not recommended that you give babies meats until they are 8 months old. Other than that, as much fo the fruits, veggies, and grains that they want! :)

Answer 8

right around eight months would be sufficient
