Yeah, I am turning to 4 months old.
Is time to start solid food?
Here are a few "signs" that may indicate your baby is ready for Solid Foods: (from Wholesome Baby)
--Loss of tongue-thrust reflex (Not Sure)
-- Ability to let you know she is full from a "meal" with signs such as turning away from the bottle or breast. This is important so that baby is able to self-regulate the amount of food being eaten. This helps stop baby from accidentally overeating as parents may continue to feed baby thinking that she is still hungry. (YES!!! When I am full, I use my tongue to play with the nipple, if Mummy is breastfeeding me, I will stop, look at Mummy and laugh, Mummy don’t know if she should angry or laugh.)
--
Ability to sit up and hold head up unassisted (YES, I love to sit and turn my head around)-- Interest in your food (Not really)
-- Doubling of birth weight (YES!!! My weight was double on the third month.)
-- Frequently waking in the middle of the night when a solid sleeping pattern had been established. (YESS, mummy is very tired, I use to wake up once, but recently, I wake up twice)
Other than the above signs, Mummy also finds that sometimes I have very big appetite, can drink up to 6 ounces of milk.
So Mummy decided to start with Heinz First Rice Cereal.
Happy solid!
