too much protein in baby food?

sage_and_sunshine · Feb 9, 2022

Hi everyone!
I just got my two boys, Thistle and Fern, on Saturday (they are about 7 weeks old now), and I've been trying to bond with them using baby food. However, they only seem interested in the beef-flavored one, and I'm worried that it will be too much protein for them if I continue to use it. So far, I've tried banana, apple, green bean, and beef baby foods from Beech-Nut. Am I overthinking this? Does anyone have any other alternatives to try? any advice is appreciated. Thanks! 💕

If you use the baby food in moderation you should be fine. I think I saw that a little extra protein in the first 6 months (?) is recommended for growth. I think if you search online, you might get a better idea.

A little more protein in their diet when they are growing is a good thing. And whatever they like that keeps them coming to you is also a good thing. Mine never liked baby food lol.
