a c-section, may 26th when im 38 weeks.
Im very excited and happy cant wait,
n-e-way I have a question I went to doctor
today and while I was waiting to be
called. Their was a lady with a baby he
was like 3 or 4 months old. She was
making him an 8oz bottle with powder
formula, she then added a small cup of
gerber apple sauce into the bottle, I was
just wonderig can you give a baby that
small gerber foods, and is it ok to mix it
with the milk?? Im just curious, thats a
big meal for a baby that small??
Any thoughts??

Actually you can feed solids at 4 months
with my daughter because she was drinking
80oz a day at 3 month my dr told me to
start her on solids if she could sit
upright for long periods of time, they
usually tell you not to put cereal/food in
the bottle but they have special nipple
now that you can do that with.
I wouldnt worry to it every other baby is
the exception some babys just need more
food and trust me its so much easier to
probally feed a baby in a bottle at that
age than trying to find a high chair that
doesnt fit your baby and have them spit
food all over the place!
I think they just worry about the choking
factor and that is why they dont want you
to put food in the bottle but some moms
are allright with that I guess.
