Another starting solids question
The post about starting solids with a 3 month old got me thinking.... My ped told me to start solids with my dd who is just about 4 1/2 months old.
She can kind of sit up, but not completely by herself. Her head bobs around quite a lot, she's not really stable.
I did give her a spoonful of oatmeal today, but I'm not sure she's ready. Should I continue with feeding or wait until she can sit up unassisted?

Re: Another starting solids question
Keep doing what you're doing w trying to feed her. Prop her up in a high chair. We padded dd's sides w blankets to keep her sitting up as straight as possible.

Do whatever you are comfortable with. It's not a science. There are no rules.

This.
If she's gagging on the food, then she's not ready. If she's eating and swallowing normally, then she's ready.

Re: Another starting solids question
How did she like the oatmeal? Did she swallow it? Sometimes it is hard to tell if your LO likes what they are eating. I know DD likes food if she swallows it and opens for more. Even when she has a  on her face when trying soMething new. Usually that look is curiosity about texture more than a YUCK.
