Feeding your baby at 5 months

As your baby is awake more and more often, you wonder about his feedings. Don't panic, the 5th month is still dominated by milk, with well-regulated meals now.

  • Morning, noon, snack, and evening... The baby is now fed at the same rhythm as the rest of the family.
  • If you have already passed the big stage of food diversification, your little one continues to receive small quantities of purees and compotes every day.
  • However, this is just a way to stimulate the taste buds!
  • We essentially keep the bottle, which can be supplemented by a little cereal in the evening.

When did you ladies start feeding your baby food?? My son is 4 months. Seems like this oatmeal isn’t getting the job done anymore.

Question... When did you start your baby on pureed food? I've been hearing the earliest at 4 months to 6 months. He'll be 4 months on the 13th and I was just wondering.

I started my son at 4 months but I don't give it to him every day. So far he had it twice. Eventhough he ate some but he still has his tongue reflux and I read if a infant still has this reflux they are not ready for it. Tongue reflux is when you are feeding them and their tongue push the food back out instead of in. So you will constantly be catching it with the spoon and feeding it back to them unless you put it in a bottle.
