When is my baby ready for solids?

Not too long ago, recommendations were to feed rice cereal to their babies as early as a few weeks for a better night sleep.

That’s a NOPE for me 😅

The World Health Organization (WHO) and American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends exclusive breastfeeding until the baby is 6 months old. “Introducing babies to complementary foods too early can cause them to miss out on important nutrients that come from breastmilk and infant formula.” Explains Chloe. M. Barrera, MPH, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

If anything but breastmilk is introduced, even formula, it can permanently alter baby’s gut microbiota, causing problems like necrotizing enterocolitis, diarrheal disease, and allergies.

Exclusive breastfeeding till 6 months at a minimum is linked to an improved immune system, allergy prevention, and higher IQ.

The WHO recommends that, in addition to breastmilk, after 6 months the baby eats:

* 6-8 months- solids 2-3 times a day
* 9-11 months- 3-4 times a day
* 12-24 months- 3-4 times a day with an additional snack 1-2 times a day

Psalm 61:2 "When my heart is weak, I cry out to you from the very ends of the earth. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I am."

I was so weak especially during my first trimester with all 4 of my pregnancies. Most recently I remember just soaking in the Lord's presence telling Him that I could not do it unless he intervened. The modern lifestyle is not congruent with the way we were meant to care for our bodies and unborn children. Between the challenge of feeding ourselves wholesome organic food on a budget, or working long hours, perhaps stationary at a desk where your movement throughout the day is limited... Our bodies may not be doing or consuming what they need to Thrive! It is so important to be intentional in doing what we can for ourselves and turning to God to provide the rest!

Thank you Jesus for being so faithful. I know that when I am weak, all I need to do is cry out to you.

Worshipping this morning with my little man, Easton. He is not new to the sound of worship or the presence of Jesus, as he spent many a days listening to the vibration of his mama’s singing and daddy’s beat of the drums right in the womb! I will still continue to declare this scripture over him as I worship as I believe he will follow his parents footsteps as worshippers and worship the Lord all the days of his life! “Every day I will bless you, and I will praise your name forever and ever.” Psalm 145:2 Do you notice a significant peacefulness with your babe as you worship?

Let’s be real! Pregnancy, childbirth, and motherhood can be draining and sometimes overwhelming… when we do it in our own strength. What if we didn’t? So often we get into this cycle of taking care of everyone else in our home and running ourselves ragged. In this scripture we see that when we take our burdens to the Lord, He WILL take them and give us the supernatural rest that we need… because let’s face it, it’s gotta be supernatural with this level of exhaustion 😮‍💨🙏😅. Much love to you Faith Mother!
