Hello Mamas!

Once you’ve determined that your baby is ready for solids, you will begin to give your baby Stage 1 baby foods. You can either buy or consider making homemade baby food at this stage. Keep watching this video where I provide an easy, stress-free, and fun guide to beginning this amazing stage in your baby’s life!

What are Stage 1 Baby foods?

Although we use the term “solids”, these first foods are really just liquidy, soupy types of foods that are very easy for a young baby to swallow. So the names “solids” is a bit of a misnomer, and there is nothing really “solid” about them because they should be so liquidy that you can almost drink them. Stage 1 pureed foods include single fruit and vegetable purees, and different types of single-grain baby cereal, most often a rice. For more tips on introducing solid foods and making them at home, keep watching!

What Stage 1 baby foods did you opt for to start, and what did your baby prefer? Please add your comments below – I would love to hear your stories!

Definitely talk to your doctor about when to start feeding your baby solids. Most people start around 6 months old but some babies are ready a little sooner. I agree it's easy to forget what you did with previous babies -- I couldn't remember a lot of things I did with baby #1 by the time I got to baby #5!

Do we feed our baby the rice cereal 🥣 first and then their regular bottle right after?

What do I do if I don’t have breast milk, can J buy it on amazon?

[bananatheorist]

What no one seems to answer for me is how often in a day should your baby be eating food? Twice a day? I'm stuck on this one. My daughter is only 3 months at the moment but will be starting solid foods next month. I want to be ready with all the information I need to know. Brilliant video, by the way. Very informative. I just need to know how often the baby can have food. xx

I am planning to breast feed until I cannot anymore, how do you schedule introducing food and nursing?

[deeplydeepali]

Hello, I have a question... I want to make my own baby food, and I've been told that you can add breast milk. Can I add defrosted bm to pre-puree food, and then freeze finished puree? I ask because I thought that once breast milk is defrosted, you can't freeze it again.

looking for homemade, not wanting to feed processed anything any ideas on home made?

[cloudmom]

Hi Bobbi -- I really don't know about cheese puffs -- they have other teething biscuits which might provide more relief -- but I don't know that they're harmful... they might have alot of salt for a baby, though. xo M
