Hi All
I am a first time mother. My little one will be 6 months next week. I had GD in pregnancy. I have to start her on solids. I know there are so many posts on solids but I am completly losts after reading them and not sure how to start solids.
please can you guide me how to start solids. What food to give in what month? I am alone so no elder to help me on that.
Thanks a lot in advance Hetal replied. at 6montths onwards,,or whenever you introduce solids,,..it doesnt matterr on what month you will give what vegies or furits,
-- what matters is the order in which you give,
-- your child responses/if ne towards it,
-- and acceptance of taste, texture and flavour in diff styles that you will be offering the same type of food.

dont worry about compltng the no of vegies and fruits by so and so months,,unles you see the acceptance from your child and whther or not he is ready for the next line of vegies.

at first, i want to know that after you had GD, wat were your child statistics, like wght, hght, at birth and current,,and your child was born on or before due date or ne neother complication wat so ever...

what are his intakes of bm or formula..the reasn why m asking this is if mother is having GD, there is a possibilty that child is on heavier side and whther or not your this complicatn has affectd your child in ne ways,,,all dpends on the stats above..

do reply me with this so that you can ensure healthy diet for your child,,and if at all your child has been somehow effctd by your gd levels..thn the worst cum worst possblity for a child born from gd mother is obesity,other is diabetes,,but its too far to predict about diabetes as of now...,,,
we can avoid atleast the obesity if at all,,its seen in baby wght or intakes..or ne such grwth stats...

thats how i want to go for you.
takecare !
