I wish you were my child’s pediatrician. You seem so friendly and happy and supportive! I’m taking your advice on food for my 6 month old and trying to give her all textures and flavors because my son is sensory with regards to food and I’ve learned it was because I’m a fussy eater so limited him to food. Trying to change that with my second born 😂 tired of making separate meals 😋

Thank you for your feedback. I appreciate your kind words! It's so good that you will be exposing your daughter to more textures and flavors. If your son is old enough, when you're preparing food for the baby, let him be a part of the experience. Often times the picky older siblings are more willing to try foods they helped prepare, and see the younger sibling trying.

Thank you for the healthy food suggestions!

This is incredibly helpful! My baby is almost 7 months old and I've had difficulty making up a "menu" for him week after week. I ended up spending 3-4 days trying to feed him one type of food that he ended up not liking. I will try this schedule and that way we can rotate through more types of food and have him experience more variety. Thank you!!!

Your videos are really helpful especially like me who is a first time mom. I wish I found your channel before I gave birth. But anyway, my baby will turn 7 months on March 2 and I am scared to give him stripped food because he might choke.

Hi, Doctor!! Excelent video series, excelent job! I would like to know the average amount of water is necessary for a 7 month kid! May you help me, please? Greetings from Brazil!

I appreciate you seeking my input. For babies 7 months old, I recommend offering 1/2 to 1 ounce, or 15 to 30 milliliters, of water one or two times a day. Babies don't need a lot of water at this age as they are still taking breastmilk or formula, and we don't want to displace their desire to take those.

How do I do this if my kids are 5 and 3 and one is gtube dependent and the other is picky? Any help would be appreciated.

I recommend that you find a pediatric feeding specialist to work with your children. They would benefit from being assessed by a specialist who can custom tailor their treatment approach and give you recommendations that you can do at home.
