Are carrots something that can upset reflux? I have noticed since we started them, Chloe reflux has been worse and she woke up last night SCREAMING with gas. It took her two hours to go back to sleep. Just wondering what I should look out for when doing solids since my oldest didn’t have any issues with them.

anything can be hard. it’s a lot of trial & error.

but yes, I have heard of carrots upsetting reflux…

try new foods in the morning (only) for a few days?

try avocado? get a really ripe avocado & mash it up w/ a fork w/ some elecare?

try sweet potatoes? pears?

I have done sweet potatoes and they are great. How long should I wait before I try a new food again? I know I have oatmeal, bananas, apples, and peas here. I might have some pears and squash, I have to check. I will pick up an avocado- hadn’t thought of that of that! She is okay on rice cereal, so should I just go back to that for a few days? Thanks!!!

continue w/ sweet potatoes & rice cereal, since you know they are fine, and then try another food for four days I think it is?

you can try other cereals like barley or oat, too.

honestly, it doesn’t matter what you try, meaning fruit, vegetable, cereal- it’s all the same in that it’s just ‘pracitice’ and getting system and baby used to eating- main nutritional value is coming from formula until about 12 months old, etc…
