I'll be sending homemade oatmeal with apple sauce then switch it out with peach purée. Won't be sending a 2nd meal for a while. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-sending-solids-to-daycare#post-426766 Sat, 01 Dec 2012 11:33:12 +0000 littlek 426766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are starting solids in a week and I was curious about this.

The kids all eat at a table (with cut through seats) and they could tell that Tyler was jealous/wanted to eat. He already was eating them 2x a day at home, so at first I started just sending cereal. He ate that for a week and then I also started sending 2 oz of food. At 6.5 months he now has a serving of cereal in the morning there (I mix 1 oz of milk with cereal) and 2-3 oz of food at lunch. I once sent a 4 oz jar by mistake and he ate all of it that day too. He was about 5.5 months at the time we started sending food and he was a little over 4 mos when we started on solids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-sending-solids-to-daycare#post-422182 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 15:29:25 +0000 Bluebonnet 422182@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We sent solids when LO starting eating twice a day. Around 7 months? </p> <p>We feed LO dinner at home, but send breakfast to daycare. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-sending-solids-to-daycare#post-422172 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 15:28:25 +0000 autumnlove 422172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We started sending purees around 6.5 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-sending-solids-to-daycare#post-422153 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 15:24:58 +0000 babynumber1 422153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our LO is the same age as yours, so we recently talked about this. It will def be a while. We will wait until she has mastered eating and doesn't spit out every bite initially. I am think probably 9 months at the very earliest, probably closer to 10-11 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-sending-solids-to-daycare#post-422146 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 15:22:31 +0000 mediagirl 422146@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're not there yet but, I'm curious. For those of you with two working parents, when did you decide it was time for daycare to start giving your lo solids? </p>
