At about 5 months Braylen started eating some solid foods. We tried to watch for signs of her letting us know she was ready. Taking things to her mouth, drooling, sitting up unassisted. We tried sweet potatoes first and she had trouble keeping the food in her mouth. Everyday she has seemed to get a little better and we haven’t found anything that she doesn’t like yet. She’s tried sweet potatoes, carrots, butternut squash, and bananas.
We’ve used this book as a guide as to what to feed her. It goes along with what her pediatrician recommended but it is a little more detailed.
And eating solids has made for some great photo opportunities she makes the funniest faces while eating.
We started her out in her Bumbo seat but now she’s getting too big for that because she keeps turning around trying to “stand” when she is sitting in it. I think we’ll be putting her in a high chair soon.
