our 5.5mo ds is huge, and ped. suggested that we start him on oatmeal. but he doesn't really seem all that interested, he just blows raspberries and often spits it out. he also doesn't seem to understand swallowing yet. should we just leave it for a while? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

try the oatmeal, if he's interested, go with it. raspberries are a much different ball of wax from oatmeal, tart and not smooth with the little seeds [ Reply | More ]

Yes. My ds wasn't interested then. I tried once a week...he didn't really get into it until right before he turned 7mo. [ Reply | More ]

I'd try again in a few days. It does take them a while to get used to eating. [ Reply | More ]

ita... also, rice cereal may be easier for the first type of solid vs. oatmeal. [ Reply | More ]
