At what age did you stop baby food?

Just wondering b/c DS got his teeth very early and I was eager to give him real food so he stopped the baby food pretty young. I chose to give him fresh fruits and vegetabes and wasn't afraid and lucky for me he ate everything no problem. He basically started boycotting baby food at around 10 mos and wouldn't go near it by 12 mos. I know some people, like my SIL only gave he DD jarred fruit for a long long time, until almost 2 I think. Just curious to see hat is common.

Bryan stopped taking jarred food around 14 months.

I did exactly what you did. 10 months she was really not into it and by 12 months she was off it altogether and for a while too.

Re: At what age did you stop baby food?

Clover is almost 10 months and she's been eating real food for almost two months. I really don't buy baby food anymore because she usually refuses after one or two teaspoons. I feel like I'm constantly throwing it out.

DS is 11 months and now eats alot of table food - at each meal he is getting regular food mixed with baby food though. The thing is he takes forever to eat the table food and often doesn't eat enough of it for him to get the nutrients he needs - so i give him some jars or pureed food I make myself to make sure he gets his vitamins he needs! It is amazing - he will only eat a few bites of fruit but he will finish a stage two jar or the equivalent if I blend it

Johnny will be 2 in september and he still gets stage 3 fruits and veggies. I cannot get him to eat diced fruit or veggies but he'll eat them pureed so i see no harm (hey we all eat applesauce right? same concept, lol).

He eats all other normal foods but for some reason won't eat whole fruit.

Re: At what age did you stop baby food?

He was completly on table food by 10 months old.

Re: At what age did you stop baby food?

DD is 8 months and won't eat it anymore she only has one tooth. She either fruits or veggies or what we eat in a feeder.

Re: At what age did you stop baby food?

I still give ds jarred fruit with cereal for breakfast but he pretty much wont eat anything else... he is 13 months now...

Re: At what age did you stop baby food?

8 months we stopped baby food. She had no teeth but ate just fine.

Re: At what age did you stop baby food?

14/15 months or so, Ella preferred real food, but we kept givingher some fruits. At 16 months, she hasn't had any in weeks.

Re: At what age did you stop baby food?

We stopped babyfood at 6 months, and stopped purees at 7 months. DD only had 2 teeth. She is 10 months now and only occassionally eats a babyfood applesauce, but I usually just make it sugar free.
