When you first start to want to give a baby jar food such as squash...Do you mix it in the bottle with the formula?Thanks

no, you give tiny tastes with the tip of a spoon. I suppose you could mix it with a little formula in a bowl and spoon it that way. Lots of good tips at Baby Center on the net.

No. This is very dangerous as baby can choke on the liquid and get an infection. It is also a very bad eating habit, and a child isn't learning about chewing or swallowing, just sucking (adults don't suck food....)

If you are looking to try squash (good choice) try it off a spoon around 4-6 months, you can give it out of the jar or heat it slightly in a bowl, up to you. But, never from a bottle or mixed with formula.

You can also use your finger during the first feedings, or let him pick up little bits of squash of his high chair and put it into him own mouth.

Good luck, and please do some more research before starting solid feedings.

Jar food goes from the jar to a spoon to their mouth. Never in a bottle. Some people mix rice cereal in the bottle to help the baby go longer between feedings...I never did that, so I don't know if it's a good idea or not. Your baby should be 6 mo old before you introduce jar food, and make sure you wait in between each type, to make sure they don't have an allergy to a certain type of food. A few days does the trick, if they're going to have a reaction, they'd have it in that time frame. Good luck to you...and I hope this helps!

You start to give the baby fruits and veggies at 6 months. They usually won't consume an entire jar, so I would reccomend scooping half a jar out in a little dish and spoon feedng him from that instead of straight from the jar. That way you can put the rest of the jar back int he fridge for use later. If a spoon that has touched your baies mouth touches the food it can't be refridgerate and used later.

No, you heat up the jar food and give it to him seperately. It's not reccommended to put anything in your babys bottle. Usually best to start your baby with something bland like baby rice first for a few days and progress, slowly, from that. Hope this helps.

3 weeks previous is a lot too early. it incredibly is pronounced to not commence solids till 6 months. it incredibly is definitely a decision to be made with you and your pediatrician in spite of the undeniable fact that. each toddler is diverse and a few little ones are waiting by ability of four months. (as long because of the fact the well being practitioner ingredients the bypass) 3 weeks is merely too youthful for many motives. substantial subject is their digestive structures and hypersensitive reactions. it incredibly is totally risky for a youthful toddler to commence solids too quickly. little ones get precisely each thing that they choose from formula or breast milk in the 1st year of existence. Solids at that element are in hassle-free terms for "exciting" and prepare. not for nutrition. once you do commence solids sooner or later it is going to in hassle-free terms a chew or 2 in an afternoon. each so often merely as quickly as a week for an prolonged time.

No, if the baby is ready to eat food they make food especially for that age group. You don't have to mix it.
