When did you start puréed food? What did you start with? Why?
-
4.5 months I think

@swedishfish: I edited. What did you start with?
-
@MrsH: we started with rice cereal and oatmeal cereal but the first purée we gave R was sweet potato. She loved it. She had sweet potato for the first time on Thanksgiving so she was closer to 5 months when we moved to vegetables and fruits. I figured sweet potato was a sure bet because of its sweetness.

With DS around 5 months with carrots, but started rice cereal around 4.5 months.
With DD closer to 6 months with carrots. No real why, it was just the first thing I decided on. The next few were sweet potatoes, avocado (mashed) and peaches. -
Really interested in this! We'll be starting purées soon too. My friend said it's really easy to make your own, especially the beginning ones. I have a mini food processor that I think I'll use and just freeze it in ice cube trays.

5mths and we did fruit pouches.
-
6 months. Sweet potatoes.

We started with oatmeal + breast milk at 6 months and then moved onto sweet potatoes, carrots and butternut squash. Our pediatrician recommended starting with orange/yellow vegetables first and then move onto green ones.
-
6 months. He had avocado, banana, and applesauce. His favorite purée combo at that age was sweet potato/avocado/pear.
We quickly moved on to giving him tastes of whatever was on our plate at about 8 months. He stopped liking purées at about that point.

6 months. Banana, pear, apples, sweet potato...

Started with those because we had them on hand the day I decided it would be fun to start solids. -
