Question about introducing foods....
What was the order in which you introduced foods, and at what age? What did you introduce after cereal?

Re: Question about introducing foods....
Andrew started fruits a little after 3 months. I have been giving him a different one each week until I can rule out allergies.
The ped said to wait until next month to start veggies. Now he is on cereal 2x and fruits 2x a day.

Re: Question about introducing foods....
Ok, see, now my ped. told me meats at 4months because she has allergies and that the fruits and veggies should come around 5 months. I've been doing research, and it does say you can start fruits, veggies or meats at 4 months, but I was just wondering what everyone else's ped.s said.

We did pretty much the same things at the same times. Our pediatrician wasn't concerned with what order we went in after cereal.

Re: Question about introducing foods....
I also don't have experience with allergies. But, my only suggestion though is to try the vegetables before the fruits, so DC doesn't develope a "sweet tooth". Also, it seems that we all do something a little different, so def do what makes you feel comfortable, DD will let you know!

Re: Question about introducing foods....
we started with rice cereal a few weeks before 4 months old and her gas was TERRIBLE. We waited and switched to oatmeal and it was GREAT.
Then we did pears. Bananas are easy too but the constipate. anything that starts with P will make the poopie runnier.
ETA: for veggies, start with the yellow/orange then move to green.

Re: Question about introducing foods....
It's so funny how all peds have different suggestions.
We started oatmeal at 4 months (ped said to skip rice since DS already has pooping issues). She said don't bother with any other cereals if he likes the oatmeal. Green Vegetables at 5 months, followed by other vegetables, then fruits.

Re: Question about introducing foods....
Fruits: 5 mos Veggies: 6 mos meats: 7 mos yogurt: 8 mos
However, I have read in every baby book I have that starting meats first is completely fine.
