| Re: Teething and Eating
Hi there!
1. It sounds like teething to me.
2. If he has a reaction to the food it will most likely be a rash or something, so it will be pretty obvious. If he won't eat it, try again in a few days...it can take a while for babies to warm up to certain foods. And when you add a new food, wait several days before starting the next new food. That way it's easy to tell what food they are reacting to.
3. You can introduce the veggies at anytime once the Dr. has given you the go ahead. These little guys are really good at knowing how much they need to eat. Start with a half a jar or so and then if he's still hungry offer a bottle. Over time he'll start to eat more and more real food and less formula. You'll probably just feed him real food 2 times a day at this age...so he'll still be having a lot of bottles. And just to warn you, when they eat a ton of veggies they can turn kinda orange...my son looked like one of the old oompa loompas he was so orange! It goes away.
Good luck, I just started on the cereal and DD hates it...she won't eat. So we're still living in bottleville.
