Parents are learning to carefully consider the foods they give to their babies.
Here’s a great list of finger foods you can try with your baby when he’s ready to eat solid food.
Bananas, Avocados, Cooked Peas, Peeled Peaches, Cheerios, Cooked Lentils, Macaroni (or other cooked cut-up pasta), Cooked Carrot Slices, Small Tofu Cubes, Soft Tortilla Pieces, Cheese Slices
These foods are easy to prepare as well as easy for your baby to grab onto and shove into their mouths. (Have the camera ready!)
But before you give these foods to your baby, please know that some of them can be constipating and make it difficult for your baby to poop if they eat too much of them.
On the other hand, some can give your baby the runs. Yikes!
Which ones should you watch out for?
Bananas, Cooked Peas, and Cheese can be constipating.

These aren’t hard and fast rules though.
