wic recommended today that babies first foods should be meats.... I got a little confused. I thought meat was like the last foods introduced....? Does anyone else know anything about this?

Meats are high in iron. My daughter's GI suggested meats as a first food 4+ years ago when we started seeing him (plus baby absorbs the iron from meat better than they do from rice cereal where it's been added in).

ya the wic lady was saying that are really bland and some babies after eating the sweeter fruits and veggies have no interest in the meats. She was saying its really important to get them used to the more bland foods

Truthfully, start out with whatever feels right to you. Meats, Fruit, Veggies, whatever the order, it really doesn't matter 20 years from now
