For my DS I did bananas a little shy of 6 months. I waited a little longer with him, probably laziness. But I skipped the rice cereal and pretty much did BLW from the start. Rice cereal always grossed me out </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-los-first-solid-food-and-age#post-1833763 Sun, 24 Aug 2014 19:28:54 +0000 Trailmix 1833763@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Avocado smashed with BM at almost 6 months (one week before)! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-los-first-solid-food-and-age#post-1833759 Sun, 24 Aug 2014 19:24:01 +0000 yerpie110 1833759@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Banana @ 5.5 months </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-los-first-solid-food-and-age#post-1833676 Sun, 24 Aug 2014 18:15:37 +0000 immabeetoo 1833676@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Avocado 6 months </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-los-first-solid-food-and-age#post-1833652 Sun, 24 Aug 2014 17:54:00 +0000 Kelley_lovelikecrazy 1833652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Avocado - 6 months! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-los-first-solid-food-and-age#post-1833627 Sun, 24 Aug 2014 17:09:25 +0000 Adira 1833627@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sweet Potato right at 6 months and he HATED it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-los-first-solid-food-and-age#post-1833578 Sun, 24 Aug 2014 16:14:33 +0000 Smurfette 1833578@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Rice cereal at 5.5 months </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-los-first-solid-food-and-age#post-1833575 Sun, 24 Aug 2014 16:09:58 +0000 lil owl 1833575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Carrot at 5 month.

So far, she has tasted a raw green bean, a pita, a carrot, and watermelon. Let's be honest, though...they all ended up on the floor :) she did like the watermelon, though! She is 4.5 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-los-first-solid-food-and-age#post-1833488 Sun, 24 Aug 2014 14:48:15 +0000 delight 1833488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did oat cereal at 6 months and a few days later introduced sweet potato. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-los-first-solid-food-and-age#post-1833362 Sun, 24 Aug 2014 13:06:10 +0000 catlady 1833362@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did sweet potato at a little past 6 months.

We stopped and tried again at 6 months with banana. In the end we discovered that in the beginning anyways, LO loved it if we mixed pear and banana together and it was easier on his tummy that way too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-los-first-solid-food-and-age#post-1833325 Sun, 24 Aug 2014 12:21:11 +0000 Bao 1833325@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A had Squash and E had Oatmeal.

We wanted to wait until 6 months to introduce solids, but Thanksgiving was a week or so before that. I offered LO some sweet potato (or squash? It was orange!) and he wasn't really interested. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-los-first-solid-food-and-age#post-1832590 Sat, 23 Aug 2014 16:30:25 +0000 Espion 1832590@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A sweet potato around 6 months. (It was Thanksgiving!) He was not impressed, ha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-los-first-solid-food-and-age#post-1832585 Sat, 23 Aug 2014 16:26:46 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1832585@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>First was rice cereal at 4 months, but i read more about solids and decided to stop and do blw at 6 months. He had sweet potato fries at 6 months :) </p>
