She's 90% vegetarian. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/meat#post-556 Wed, 21 Sep 2011 16:31:48 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 556@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mavrick was a eater so I started extremely early with cereal. I started meats once all the fruits and veggies were tested. So at the 6 month mark for us (he started cereal at 3 months) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/meat#post-526 Wed, 21 Sep 2011 14:43:15 +0000 AQL1211 526@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When did you start giving your babies meat? Friends have started at 7-8 months, but my pediatrician tells me that there's no hurry and to wait 10 months. baby is 9 months. i wanted to try giving her some chicken and rice, but now i'm wondering if i should hold back a little bit and continue introducing her fruit and veggies? </p>
