    Do we have to start feeding them farex or can we just start giving them mashed potato and veggies??

    Hi everyone

    Hope we had a great day today. I just went to k-mart just look around. Jolnathan is doing really well with his solids. I gave him puree apple yesterday & will be continiung for one week then i'll be giving him pumpkin one week, & other veggies. This question is for anyone Do we have to add fruit in with the farex or can we give farex to babies on it's own? I give Jonathan 4-6 months pear & banana farex in the morning, then in the afternoon i give him puree apple. Is this ok wat i'm doing? I rang maternal line & they said that's fine wat i'm doing. But my friend told me to mix puree apple in with the farex so he will get used to it and also add more apple each day for one week then add pumkin to the farex for one week and so on??? I think i'm doing ok my way & like i said the nurse said it's fine, any opinions will great thanx Oh my friend also told me to give jonathan the plain farex but i couldn't find it, i only found like i said 4-6 months start farex.

    Mary- How was the wedding? I saw the photo you look beautiful & so does gorgeous Izzy. I have commented on the photos on fb. Poor Izzy I hope she gets better soon With the solids, i give Jonathan farex in the morning & then fresh puree apple in the afternoon. I'm sure other girls here will give u more advice, you can always call 24 hr maternal line.

    Kel- Yaaaaay on finishing the xmas shopping, I too have finished as well, feels good doesn't it. Oh I bet Jess will love the brum car, you have to tell us his reaction. Yaaay for getting the wii.

    Tan- Yaaaaay on finishing the xmas shopping. I'm glad the the party went good on Sunday.

    Mel- Yaaayy for ds on saying chipmunks, that's great

    Tenny- Yaaayy for giving ds solids how did he go? I wish i didn't have to see my il's alot. Mean i know but i couldn't care less.

    Big hello to everyone else i have missed

    Mez.. yeh you can start on potato or veg.. or fruit. I think most just start on farex as its similar to their formula so easier for them to get use to the texture iykwim. But yeh when introducing a vegetable, stick to the same one for at least 4 days.. same goes for any new ones introduced.. so that you can watch for any reaction to it. Happy solids

    Tasia.. honey you can do what you want really. I never added fruit with any of Jesse's farex. I think towards the end i did with his cereal (when he went up to the next stages). But Jesse never liked the apple for a long while. But what youre doing sounds right to me hun. Listen to people's advice but you dont always have to take it.. and theres no rush. Just take your time with it, let him get use to it all, find out what he likes and doesnt like.. thats what solids at this age really are for, for them to get use to new tastes.. and just have fun. I dont think theres any right or wrong.. just make sure you give at least 4 days inbetween introducing a new fruit or veg to watch for any reactions. Youre doing a great job hun

    Ok back to the Wii! hehe DH is boxing atm.

    kel- thanx sweety, yeah i will do it for 4 days. Once i have tried him eating other veggies on it's own i was thinking of adding potatoes & pumpkin together & see how he goes, after he has done the individual stuff iykwim.
