The Best Food For 4 Month Baby
This is one stage that I know can be a very nerve wracking and scary for many parents. One of the most important things to remember is that there is no gold standard “right way” of starting baby on solid foods. I have compiled solid food charts to help you have an idea of what foods are safe, healthy and nutritious for your baby as you both begin the journey into solid foods. Remember, many pediatricians are recommending that babies start solids at 6 months of age
1. CEREALS.
Rice and Oatmeal cereals are the least of the allergenic grains and thus most babies are started out with those cereals.
May be served raw after 8 months old or earlier if the fruits are soft and baby does not have digestion troubles – bananas and avocados do NOT need to be cooked ever.
2. VEGGIES.
Always serve cooked until after 12 months old or when baby can chew well enough so that no choking hazard is present.
3. PROTEIN.
Always serve cooked with no pink areas – NEVER give a small baby/child raw meat or fish
4. DAIRY.
NEVER replace breast milk or formula until after 12 months of age – serious health risks are possible. Never give a child under the age of 2yrs old low fat or skim milk products; whole milk is necessary.
