Comments on: 4 Months Update http://baby.thefriedmans.net/2007/02/19/4-months-update/ The story of our family Tue, 26 Apr 2011 12:36:36 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Mommy aka Grammy http://baby.thefriedmans.net/2007/02/19/4-months-update/comment-page-1/#comment-12268 Mommy aka Grammy Tue, 20 Feb 2007 00:55:24 +0000 http://baby.thefriedmans.net/2007/02/19/4-months-update/#comment-12268 Sometimes solid foods help a child sleep through the night better since they take longer to digest or make the child feel fuller and more saisfied. Of course some experts say that this is just nonsense! Together you and Anya will decide how to proceed: she'll clearly convey her likes and dislikes; unless you like screams and messes on you, her, the highchair, and the floor, you'll feed her mainly the things she likes. My personal recommendation is baby rice cereal first and pureed fresh bananas second. I think the articles pointed to below are good; you;ll find that they share most of the same ideas, but differ on some points. There is no right answer, so you try one thing and also another, and see what feels most comfortable for you and your daughter. http://www.drgreene.org/body.cfm?id=21&action=detail&ref=561 www.babycenter.com/refcap/baby/babyfeeding/113.html http://www.verybestbaby.com/ExpertQA/Topic.aspx?topicid=BF646233-9135-4F9D-8734-B58D21E1FBC1 Sometimes solid foods help a child sleep through the night better since they take longer to digest or make the child feel fuller and more saisfied.
