At what age did you totally stop the jars of baby food?
just wondering what the average age is? I haven't given them to Kiera that much since her first birthday and someone I work with was surprised that I still don't feed them to her. She's 15 months and she totally hates the meats and veggies in the jar. She would still eat the fruits and cereals if I gave them to her but I figured since she's eating solids now, why give her the jars?

Re: At what age did you totally stop the jars of baby food?
I have to say my son was about 16 months before he stoppped wanting his jarred food.
I tried so hard to feed him other things but he always would just cry and point to his jars.. I would even try to trick him and scoope out the baby food and put my own in but he was smart enough to figure out what I was doing..
Then one day..just like that.. he wanted some bites of MY food on MY plate.. hes never wanted his jar food again.
I think its great that your 1 year old wants to eat other things.. It makes life soooo much easier I think.

About 10 months with both my kids. Once they got a taste of table food, it was all over. Neither of them likes the meats and my son hated the Stage 3 stuff so I didnt even bother with it for my daughter.

Re: At what age did you totally stop the jars of baby food?
My son is 20 months, and I would say he moved away from jarred food at 13 months, but then he was all table food. However, he would still on occasion have a Gerber Graduate microwave meal thingy, and even now, at 20 months, he loves oatmeal with a jar of Stage 2 fruit in it. SO I still buy some jarred fruit for him. Why not, right?

Re: At what age did you totally stop the jars of baby food?
Probably a vast majority, it was over by 9 months. I've always just given her what we ate and she always liked it. If we were out or something (like at a friends, esp with no kids,) I gave her the graduates, but it was rare.
If they like it, I don't think it's a big deal! I, personally, refuse to cook something separate!

We stopped at 12 months, but not by choice - one day my son just refused to let us feed him anything with a spoon.

About 11 or 12 months when he refused to let me feed him with the spoon unless it was Yogurt with Dora the Explorer on the package!
