I wanted to ask .. how many times a day do you feed him? my baby is 5 months tommorow and I am giving him solids once a day.. he has already mastered veggies and rice cereal . Now I'm starting on fruits.
it neat to see other parents perspective on things. i guess everyone does things different. i was told if a baby isnt happy with the cereal, dont press the issue! let him tell you when he is ready! although 2 weeks later he was a different baby.. haha... i was advised to introduce foods one at a time.. only give 1 food every 5 days or so to make sure there is no type of allergy.. i LOVE the idea of making your own baby food.. im def gonna look into that! he is a beautiful boy! you are blessed!
Anyway as i was sayin b4 i ran out of space like i always do when i write a comment 2 any1 lol U done a gd job with him coz i know how frustrated u can b cum. He looks like he is eatin wel with no probs i hope. If he carries on eatin like he does u wil have a very big cute boy not that he already aint cute.
Hugs and kisses to Tadhg and hope u r feelin wel with the lack of sleep. I would do anythin to hav a ful nights sleep again. sometimes my boys wake up in middle of night as wel as my baby.
Hi dont know if u remember me but we spoke ages ago. I have a 3 yr old son,wel he will b 3 on the 25th of April, another son that will b 2 in May and a little girl who turned 10 weeks today.
I remember the first time i started feeding my boys. It was so hard and a big strugle but within a week they wud eat anythin u gave them especially the1that wil b3 this month he wud eat loads. I hav already started feedin my girl solids as milk is not makin her ful and she took to it str8 away wif no probs
Haha this is like watching our first time w/ jacelyn. I tried, then Joel tried, then I tried again, except Joel was the one talking like you (like an expert at it) lol too funny. I guess all parents go through that. ha.
Ive heard this is a no-no, but we put my brother in a high chair, and gave him a PP&J sandwich. He fed it to himself. I cant remember how old he was, because he is 19 months now... but thats what we did.
:)
Tadhg is a VERY cute baby. Im a fan of your posts!
i think you guys did rather well for the first time ever!! im getting ready to give my allison her first try of rice cereal here in a couple days! i thought you were supposed to try one food at a time though, just in case they might have an allergy to one of them you will know which one it is! oh well good job!!!
That's great advice! We did one food at a time too, three to four days in between new foods. The first video was from about 3 weeks ago. I should have said that. :)
LOL I can remember my sons very first "solids"... He was about 5 months (he was 6wks prem so we waited a month after he was 4mth), it was a fruit puree jarred food and i so thought he would do exactly what your little man did but he actually ate the whole jar!!!! Man, that was like a year and a half ago :)
Thats so cute Stacy looks like Tadhg has came a long way with eatting that is so cute so do you get to be a stay at home mommy full time or are you already back at work?
I'm a stay-at-home mommy for now, but in a year or two, I might go back! I'll have to re-evaluate how much fun it is being a mom. Maybe Daren will want to stay at home for a while?

We feed him three meals of about 7-8 oz of baby food, but we also feed him table food pretty much all day. :)

and does he still drinks a lot of breastmilk?
vic88coi 2 years ago
Yep, about 4 - 5 feedings a day. A little less than when he was 1-2 months old, but still about equal to the food he's eating.

Another thing you could try is a plastic spoon?! Sometimes babies don't like the taste of metal in their mouth.

Great tip, Tina! We only use plastic spoons.

Sorry, I realise now that I wrote that before I saw then end of the video where you did have the plastic spoon!

venus28139 2 years ago
Yeah, ours was like really runny applesauce. Good for the first few feedings.
Devlinfamily 2 years ago
Its so funny my son did the same thing , just repeat repeat repeat . pretty soon you wont be able to give them bites fast enough!!
rdoonan 2 years ago
That's the problem we have now -- he starts grunting when we don't give him the next bite soon enough!
