Why is there a berry flavor in each of the YoBaby Plus varieties?
YoBaby is supposed to be good starting at 6 months, but I was told to not feed my child berries until after 12 months of age. By the time YoBaby is typically introduced into a baby’s diet, he/she is eating a wider variety of solid foods including berries also found in stage 2 baby foods from leading baby food manufacturers. However, it is important to note that berries can cause food sensitivity issues with some babies; Dietitians and pediatricians recommend introducing whole berries and jams made with berries slowly, usually around your child’s first birthday. At that point your baby’s digestive system is fairly developed, she’s had a few months of experience eating other solid foods, and she’s generally less likely to have a serious reaction. If your family has a history of asthma or allergies to food or plants (such as hay fever), you may want to wait even longer. As always, you should consult with your Pediatrician before introducing new foods into your little one’s diet.
