Spinoff to Eating

Since a few people commented that they waited to late to introduce real solids I'm curious when did you introduce whole foods and how?

Re: Spinoff to Eating

I started giving her cheerios and puffs around 7 months I think and she did great with them so I just slowly started giving her stuff I was eating, little bits of chicken, turkey meatloaf, fruit, etc...
Now she is almost 10 months and eats tons of stuff but I usually give her baby food first and then finger foods after just so I know she is getting enough fruits/veggies, etc.
sorry for the rambleChat Icon

8 months with Joseph I started trying mashed food. I didn't really push until 10 months (way too late IMO).

7 months isn't too late, it's a perfect time to start puffs and cheerios, I started out breaking them in half, that only lasted about a week until I gave her the whole thing.

I gave Noah rice cakes and cucumbers when he was around 5.5 months old, he liked to chew on them and play with them

My doctor really freaked us out about choking risks and told us there was no reason to start any type of table food until 9 months. We started puffs and cherrios around 8.5 months - very slowly. We didn't do much other stuff until around 11 months besides maybe bots of cheese or bagels or teething cookies (big things for teething).
