When introducing a new type of food I know you are supposed to wait about 5 days to see if they have a reaction to it. My question is, if introducing sweet potatoes, for example, do you give them ONLY that for 5 days or can you combine it with other foods they've already tried out?
Right now DS is on cereal. When I introduce other foods can I give him cereal as well during the 5 day trail for a new food? Should you do this only only on a limited basis, for example if hes already tried cereal and sweet potatoes and now I am introducung apples -is it OK to give all 3 during the trial for apples? Or should I just stick to cereal and apples and no sweet potatoes until he "passes" on apples.
I don't know if I am the only one who finds this confusing.
Help!
