When giving DC food for the first time, did you start with Veggies or fruit??
We started our DD on fruit yesaterday with her cereal...My sister in law said I should have started with veggies but my ped is the one who told me to start with fruit....Does it really matter??

we havent started DD on solids yet, but the ped. told us that when we decide to start her, we should do veggies first because there is a good chance she wont like veggies if she tastes fruit first. She will prefer the sweet taste.

Here is the order we went in:
Orange veggies, green veggies, fruit.
So we started with sweet potato, butternut squash, carrots, moved to peas, green beans, then fruits.
The only reason we went in that order was because my ped suggested it.

My Ped said the same exact thing so we started with the veggies. I know other Peds say to start with the fruit first. I am sure it is fine either way.

So we started with sweet potato, butternut squash, carrots, moved to peas, green beans, then fruits.
The only reason we went in that order was because my ped suggested it.
this is exactly what we did too based on ped. suggestion.

Our ped suggested the same and that's what we did.
She's been a pretty good vegetable eater too, she'll eat peas and corn all day if I let her.

Our ped didnt make any suggestions. I started with fruit first. DS likes them all. But I am glad I started with the fruit, some of the veggies didnt sit as well with him and he spit up more often when eating them, specifically the green veggies.

Ped said fruit first. I tried pears - DS hated it - too sweet - so then we tried veggies for a while b/f going back to fruits.

Same here - started by adding applesauce then bananas to his cereal - when we started veggies he LOVED them too. Starting w/fruit first posed no problem for us

My Ped said you can start anyway you want. We opted to start with Apples. Then we did a veggie and alternated like that until we did everything. DS had no problems whatsoever....

We started on veggies but in the end...it doesn't really matter. My ped at the time recommended fruits first too.

Same here. I will admit that for veggies, he always prefers the sweet potatoes, carrots over the peas. Can't blame him!

We started with veggies first. Our ped. said that if we start with fruit, she'll like the sweet stuff and won't go for the veggies.
