| Re: can i feed my 5 month old yogurt
It depends how big is your baby for his age and if he looks like ready for it. My son is 6 months old but on the 95% percentile growth chart. Even when he was 4 months old, my peds said I could treat him like a 6 months old. DS has no problem with solid feeding and no indigestion, diarrhea of any sort and growing on the right pace.
My pediatrician says OK to give icecream and yogurt at 5 months. Small amount of course and only to explore his tastebuds on occassions and not as a daily snack.
Having said that, like all types of newly introduced foods, you should watch for signs of indigestion, diarrhea, or vomiting. Yogurt should be plain and not loaded with sugars....
