I would say at 1 year. That’s when you can start giving milk, but check with your pediatrician of course just in case

Mine had a few small bites for my 6 yr olds bday at 5.5 months and she was fine but ideally most recommend 1 yr of age because breast milk or formula can provide all they need nutrition wise

4

Whenever they can eat, I’d just be careful with the ount of sugar in it and if your baby has dairy problems.

Try FroYo

I didn’t give my firstborn ice cream until 2, but she was never terribly interested.

6

My kiddo was never interested in ice cream either until she was about 2.5 years old. But I tried to give her a bite or two around 10-11 months just to see her reaction :slight_smile:

When my babies started solids, I would give them little bites of ice cream. It’s not going to hurt them if you’re not giving them the whole pint.

My daughter things yoghurt is ice cream.

13

we started once whole milk was approved, but nothing too crazy

14

Ice cream,I waited to make sure he was able to eat yogurt first and when he was able to have yogurt I gave him ice cream :ice_cream: how old is your little duffer

15

You could always try frozen yogurt or a sorbet because it’s water braised

16

If it’s for the texture/cold aspect, you can freeze milk pops for them to try :smiling_face: My babies weren’t that interested in cold stuff until 2 yrs plus. By that age, they were well adjusted to dairy anyway.

6 months small amounts

6-8 months, but only a tiny bit because the milk might give them a belly ache. Custard I would say maybr 8-10 months just because it has eggs in it

23

When you know their tummies can handle dairy from a cow.

24

:roll_eyes: I gave mine some when they acted like they were interested in it. Of course it’s not like I gave them a whole bowl full. But a taste here and their isnt gonna hurt them.

25

I gave both of mine a very little bit on their 1st birthday. When whole milk is okay for them.

My daughter had ice cream at 6 months at a neighbors birthday party :woman_shrugging:t2: never bothered her
