Gerber Stage 2 And 3 Foods, Anyone? Posted: 06-14-07 13:45pm
Hey guys! Alyvia is finally taking her
jarred foods and eating them in (mostly)
one sitting. I'm just curious what your
baby's favorite flavors are and least
liked flavors too. We've only tried the
fruits and veggies in .gerber stage 2, and
we haven't tried stage 3 yet, but this is
what she's had:
veggies:
sweet potatoes & corn (loves!)
garden veggies (carrots and peas,
basically) (gags and refuses)
fruits:
apples strawberries & bananas (likes)
apples and cherries (likes)
banana apple dessert (loooooves) <- I
don't think this is really a fruit,
though...
she's also had the stage 2 mac &
cheese, but it looks and smells like vomit
and she didn't seem to care for it.
So if you have any suggestions for fruits,
veggies, meats, etc that your baby likes
(in the jarred foods, I mean) please
share!

Did you try any of the containers of the
mixed fruits like pear strawberry granola
with the DHA and ARA in it. That's Ava's
favorite. She also likes the jarred
chicken and apples, turkey rice dinner,
chicken noodle dinner. She doesn't like
any of the mixed fruits that has oranges
or bananas in it and she hates beef and
ham!

finn loves everything i've ever given him
except green beans.
for stage 2 foods, he likes all the
vegetables but his favorites are mixed
vegetables (i think it's corn, potatoes,
and something else) and sweet potatoes and
corn.
i mix his fruits with oatmeal, he's like
everything i've bought but i haven't
bought too many. bananas make it hard for
him to poop so i stay away from them and a
lot of the fruit mixtures have bananas,
though i have given him the
apple/strawberry/banana and the
banana/mixed berries and he likes them. he
loves the apple/blueberry and the
prune/apple (yuck!).
i give him the stage 3 dinners and he
*loves* the chicken/noodle! he's only
tried beef once and he hated it and
wouldn't eat it. i'm not going to be
giving him baby food much longer though,
he *loves* any table food i give him and
he's been eating dinner with us lately.
jamie, why do you mix everything together?
just wondering...

Chu loved chicken and apples, pears and
chicken, guava dessert, chicken and rice,
all of the fruits and all of the veggies
except green beans and green peas.

Thanks for the replies, ladies! Aaron
picked up a few stage 2 dinner jars, so
we're going to try one of those later on.
Bridget: .Alyvia is the exact opposite...
bananas make her butt explode! but she's a huge
fan of sweet potatoes and corn! We pulled
all of her stage 1 foods out of the
cabinet (she's been refusing them for a
few months) and she ate everything but the
peaches. I actually held the prunes back
because I was afraid they'd give her
diarrhea, and then gave her a jar of it
when she was constipated the other day.
Four solid poos that day! God bless
prunes!
she loves sweet potatoes and tolerates
carrots. I really don't think she likes
peas. She loves bananans and apples, and
seems to like strawberries and cherries.
I think we're trying beef vegetable
tonight! I really hope she likes it.

I always keep prunes on hand for when Ava
is constipated or has a hard poo, it's
guaranteed to make her go.

Oni never refused any of the foods. Well,
green beans at first, but just because
they were massivly thick, and it gagged
her.
BUt she looooved everything!! I always
gave her veggies first, then dessers. I
never mixed em.
Sounds like she's doin good though!!!!!
Keep it up .aly!!!
