[@madiramage6178]

i don't have instagram yet do you have snapchat

[@vickyxly]

Susan Yara yayy! I looked specifically to see if you had a video on this. Your breastfeeding video helped me so much! Though it was with my 2nd child, I was so young with my first so it was too long ago to remember.

My doctor told me that there’s no age restrictions to start solids. Best way is to look for signs like good head control and if baby takes interest in food. I started at 4 months with oats cereal and Two weeks after I introduced egg yolk. Now he is 5 months old and he’s doing fine.

[@jaspriest1997]

The best way is to follow your paediatrician’s advice. If your doctor told you one thing and you feel comfortable doing that go for it, but you really shouldn’t tell people to follow your advice or another doctor‘s advice over their own physician :)

[@chrisg64]

Omgggg thank god I found this video. I’ve been stressing over feeding my baby girl! She’s 8 months and is still on purées but honestly I don’t give her much food. I just get stressed out and just give her a bottle instead. But I am going to just start trying to relax and have fun with this.

[@steelcty563]

Appreciate your help. I’m a new grampa . I get the privilege of babysitting a lot.

[@amshoupe]

My daughter will be 6 months in two weeks and I’m so sad and nervy for this new stage! Your videos have been so so helpful and makes me feel more confident. Thank you Susan!!

[@christinas6528]

I have a hack for keeping the puffs fresh! I place saran wrap or waxed paper over the opening & then place the lid on top. Keeps them fresh longer 😁

[@Shamrockin89]

Never would have thought about the bland food, so glad you mentioned that! Thank you!

[@deepthigurazada382]

What a timing !! My son will be 6 months old in a week and a half and I’m planning to start him off on solids .. and this video is right on time !! Awesome !!

[@cf3129]

This has come at the perfect time for my Godchild 🤗😬

[@jillnguyen8485]

Hi Susan! Please share how you transitioned to cows milk and also away from bottle. I started today and would love to hear your method and tips! Xo

[@SusanYara]

Hi Jill! I have a video talking about toddler transitions. Hope it helps! kzbin.info/www/bejne/o4epZK2Mabt0o9U

[@sylvialai680]

i love your lip colour! Mind to share what brand and what shade it is?

[@mariselasilva-reyes2205]

You are so helpful thank u so much my baby girl is 4 moths what month can I introduce a lil water ♥️

[@jsks9888]

Thanks so much for this info. Always enjoy your videos. Just wanted to mention, with my son, who is now 1, we also introduced the sweeter foods (fruits, etc) first, but he always rejected them. He just took to the savory stuff more. So don't blame yourself for Nikash's love for sweets. He just has a sweet tooth to match his sweet little face! :)

[@SusanYara]

Js & Ks That’s good to know! Thanks for sharing!

[@milchspender]

Thank you for this great informal video!!! And thanks for mentioning the fear of choking, because the same thing happened to my wife and me and we were really paranoid after that :-/ but it seemed that nobody of our friends had ever mentioned that...

[@bhoomi819]

Also adding seasoning is not recommended by pediatricians did u do that from 6 months ?

[@EATLIFTRUN]

Thank you so much for this video! I am taking my baby girl to her 6-month wellness checkup and hopefully get the green light from doc to start introducing her to solid foods. This was a very helpful and informative video. I'm glad you shared about the fear of baby choking. I was and still a bit worried. I know CPR but still fear of having to use it. You shared to ask away any questions we may have. I was wondering if you could make a video about how and when your baby started rolling over and any tips on tummy time and crawling. My little one is just starting to do well on tummy time and wants to crawl but can't get coordination yet. But I noticed that she's not yet rolling over back to front or front to back as some babies I've seen or books have mentioned. When did you kid start?

[@minisworld2337]

I watched all this bcoz of your dress and chain 💁🏻‍♀️🌈💖

[@curryleaftv7823]

Can u make a video of what meals u give ur son ? That would me very very helpful

[@SusanYara]

Haari In The Kitchen I did! It’s on my channel.

[@victoriamagano3360]

😊 thank you❤️ so helpful, positive and humorous !

[@Beckyy254]

Now I'm confused cause my health visitor said NOT to salt any food during weaning as it takes baby over his salt allowance. Im still so confused!

[@abiemanalang2395]

Beckuh G Same. No condiments until 1 year old i guess.

[@elviajuarez2867]

No salt! Their organs can’t handle or even break down salt the way we can.

[@shaz185]

I’ve read that we shouldn’t add salt to babies food because their kidneys can’t handle it. It’s an overload for them.

[@adrianasanchez2247]

Rebecca Greaves I also read and heard not to give him Salt before 1 and added sugar before 2 years of age 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@kduke8890]

I’m so nervous about giving my 8month old water 🥴 she is breast fed and has been taking solids since 6months as well

[@Holly-gr2jn]

Thanks I laughed at the He don’t give a ... 🤣 Nope they don’t! My Kaisley is 4 months and I am trying to decide between the mush or led weaning... Your video is appreciated!

[@butterbean3018]

More baby videos please!. Can you do a what me and my baby eat in a day video. Hope you are have a good day love you channel.

[@Ploygio]

What color was your lipstick?

[@DescribeNormal]

Have you stopped breast feeding? If so I’d love a video on how you did stop! I don’t want to be BF by the time I go back to work in 4 months time (not fully anyway maybe just at night) but my 5 month old won’t take a bottle from me or if I’m in the room, and it takes my mum a while to get him to take one from her too without him getting worked up about it!

[@kavyaspark]

Hi Susan! I love watching your videos. Can you please share the links of the jewelry you are wearing? Thanks!

[@nc940]

Did Nikash gag or throw up his milk when he first started on solids?

[@tatianymonteiro529]

I just love you. Big Aloha from Brazil!

[@barbarapaz3722]

So many great advice. Thanks for the video 👍🏻

[@staceylangley5291]

What do you guys suggest for “bite size” pieces? I’ve been cutting too small that she can’t pick up but scared to cut too big.

[@elviajuarez2867]

Finger length and 1 inch wide !

[@sammynalla]

They should start with big... check out videos on gagging vs. choking

[@arwinner]

Hey Susan love the tips. Can you please share some tips for teething also

[@marystewartormsby2747]

What a fantastic video as I start to feed my baby girl solids, your content is top notch. What age did you allow your son to eat the puffs?

[@sydsky98]

My daughter is only 11 months about to be 12 months in couple of weeks .... and she eats everything!!! I mean everything. She loves eating.

[@anjuhashim9154]

Thank you so much. Very helpful

[@aviva1996]

heyy thank you for this video!!! My baby boy just turned 6 months last week so he just started on solids. I would love for you to do a video on meals/ mela planning for baby and I. Meals that's for my husband and i but that he could benefit from!

[@revtii]

Ya hi Susan I like your updates . Thanku you so much for this video as I'm introducing solids to my son now hes 7 months . And mostly depend on breastfeed and yes I would love to inform you I'm from India. Many thanks super cutie mom

[@leela7618]

Caution about water - our pediatrician said that too much water can make babies sick with water intoxication. Breast milk is largely composed of water, along with solid foods, especially fruit.

[@yellowbird500]

Avocado for a six month old?

[@enyo0047]

I I subscribe right when you said you gave him to those puffs lol 😂

[@almadelia412]

Did Nikash was go through a phase where he didnt want whole food and only wanted milk? My son is 12 months used to eat everything and now he has for a week been refusing to eat solids. Is this a phase all kids go through? Love you & your videos!!!

[@SusanYara]

Almasita D Yes, he wanted more milk than solids, but my pediatrician said to slow down the milk to one bottle per day so he would be hungry for whole food.

[@almadelia412]

Team Queen’ s Fearn Tucker and Bentley Forever He drinks 16 oz of milk now. Recommended by our pediatrician. He is doing much better now. Definitely a phase! He is eating everything again

[@almadelia412]

Team Queen’ s Fearn Tucker and Bentley Forever ok thanks for your opinion.

[@jessicacoutts2941]

Did you introduce rice cereal at 6 months for the iron or just give your son foods that contain iron? I’m breastfeeding and I heard that breast milk doesn’t contain iron and babies have a supply of iron in their bone marrow until around 6 months. So they need some in their diet. I don’t want to give rice cereal as I don’t think it has nutritional value and may be hard to digest.

[@alexandralawson1728]

Jessica Coutts yes def it's hard on there tummy,my son it constipated him big time,we used it for a week and chuncked it. I just gave him formula til he was 6mons then I introduced purees the started BLW when he was 10mons. Hope this helps.

[@johannatyer9899]

Jessica Coutts We never did rice cereal for that reason. Instead I started with baby oatmeal from gerber. It is fortified with iron and I would mix it with some boiled ( then cooled) water and add some fruit purée. After he got the hang of chewing, we started toasted oat cereal ( like Cheerios) which has a lot of iron in it. I give him those now at 10 months because while he loves the puffs, i wasn’t thrilled with their lack of nutritional value.

[@alexandralawson1728]

Johanna Tyer good idea on the cheerios I'll try that he loves the puffs but I limit them a ton

[@johannatyer9899]

Ally Cabs just a warning though, I would find an organic toasted oat cereal...I just read a story on nbc about how they found a carcinogen used in weed killer in Cheerios 🙄 so I chucked it and found an organic brand instead.

[@alexandralawson1728]

Johanna Tyer great good idea ty🙏

[@artsyblackcat6915]

Hi Susan. Do U mind sharing ur lip color. It’s so beautiful

[@bhoomi819]

How can babies 6 month old eat on their own don’t they have to be fed purées?

[@jackie26085]

You introduced solid whole food before puréed food like cereal and puréed carrots?

[@SusanYara]

Jackie Fu I did! I started with soft foods like banana and avocado. And I also steamed veggies.

[@jaspriest1997]

It’s called baby-led weaning and has been shown to have major benefits over the puréed route :)

[@roselinparker4673]

I heard it’s 2 years with honey.

[@peachxtaehyung]

Its 1 yr and only a small amount.

Hi

[@anhaymsn]

I had botulism. Its real. I almost died as per my mom

[@jasminem7390]

Crack for babies.... that's new but i cant say I disagree

[@B1300]

Just so you know revamping a delayed reaction takes at max 24 hours

[@lucieb4741]

It is not a problem if baby food is bland! It should be bland. Never put salt or sugar to baby food !

[@jjjesuzumaki2032]

Igave my baby a honey :(

[@maz2825]

Please do not add anything to your babys food such as salt, pepper, oils or sugar. It is not good for their health, doesn't matter how little you add. It isn't always about the taste of the food that the children don't like, sometimes its the texture or just the food itself. That paediatrician sounds like they are giving wrong information... but what do I know... I'm only a nursery teacher.
