I started DD on the Earth's Best Oatmeal. Once she ate that for a couple of weeks I then gave her the stage 1 fruits and veggies.
Down the line I switched to the Gerber Oatmeal and Gerber Mixed Grain. I never gave DD the Rice Cereal.

I bought the Earth's best first but then have used Gerber from there on.
I started with rice but should have just skipped it. DS wasn't a fan so I moved him onto the oatmeal right away. After 4 days of oatmeal I added in fruits and veggies.
My Ped said if he isn't interested in eating do not drive yourself crazy just stop for a week and try again.
Good Luck

I started with the Gerbee oatmeal and then went straight into fruit and veggie purees. Never tried the rice or barley cereals.

Earths Best and Sprout - rice, oatmeal, barley. DD had a reaction to oatmeal so I'm very glad I listened to the ped and started with rice. Never had any constipation issues from the rice.

I chose to go with Plum organic brown rice cereal and oatmeal. I added fruits and veggies within a few days, orange veggies and apples, pears, banana, nectarines, peaches, aplricots, and plums for fruit as per her ped.

I started with Earth's Best rice cereal.
My pediatrician recommended starting with rice cereal and if she got constipated (since rice is binding) to switch right over to oatmeal. If not, to finish up the box of rice cereal and then make the switch to oatmeal.
Check out www.wholesomebabyfood.com for suggestions on first veggies/fruits. I found this site to be extremely helpful.

I started with Gerber Oatmeal becuae my DS has poop issues. After three days I started on fruits. I've added a new one every three days.
