Today Karis ate solid food for the first time. We were going to hold off on feeding her solids until she turned six months; however, she has not been eating well this past month. We're not sure if she has stomach issues or if she is just not interested in eating. We're hoping that solids will help settle her tummy and make up for some missing calories.
Karis turned five months of age yesterday and has shown signs of being ready to take on solids (e.g, head control, curiosity about what we're eating, sits well), so I gave her some rice cereal. She ate about two teaspoons of it, minus what ended up on her face and bib. It was fun to watch her figure out this new thing called eating.

Great! Looks like she loves it! Is she on rice cereal or oatmeal? We are using oatmeal and prunes for sky. I guess rice cereal tends to constipate more..Hope her tummy took it well!
