At their 4-month check-up we got the OK to start on solids. Fun stuff...we started with rice cereal.
 |
| I followed the instructions on the box, clearly too much cereal! |
 |
| Emma loves it! |
 |
| Brett would rather have his bib! |
Our pediatrician said we can introduce foods in any order, but to wait about 5 days between foods when introducing something new. This can help to detect any possible allergies or reactions to new foods.
Any moms looking for information on starting solids can find a lot of information at www.wholesomebabyfoods.com. Whether you are interested in purees or baby led weaning, the website has a lot of information, recipes, tips, etc. for introducing solids and helping your child to be a healthy eater that chooses a wide variety of foods to eat!
So...for the 4-month stats:
Emma: 13 lbs, 14 ounces.
Brett: 15 lbs, 7 ounces.
They are both in the 50% for their weight and head circumference. Brett is in the 50% for height and Emma is in the 75th! They are actually the same height (around 24 inches), but they are on different boy/girl growth charts.
We have been having a lot of fun lately, as always :) Luckily, I have the pictures to prove it!
