If you started solids later...

If you started solids later...

DD is almost 6 months and we just started her on oatmeal. She seems to really like it and I want to start her on fruits and veggies soon.

How long does she need to be on oatmeal before she can start other foods?

I know that when the Ped suggested starting her on oatmeal at 4 months he wanted her to be on it for a month before starting fruits and veggies at 5 months. But since she's older now, can I start sooner? I was thinking a week or so of oatmeal and then the good stuff??

i did everything 3 days at a time. try the oatmeal, then 3 days of each vege, 3 days of each fruit. then once you've tried all the flavors, you can mix it in the oatmeal.

Same. Spaced it out three days to make sure DD wasn't allergic to it before trying the next thing.l
