We've done the rice cereal thing a few times now. The pediatrician said we could start introducing it any time after 4 months. We're waiting for the 6 month mark to start regularly giving her solids and introducing fruits and veggies to her diet. We're working on giving the rice cereal more consistently in the evenings right now, and we'll probably be introducing oatmeal soon, and possibly barley cereal, to give her a little variety. When we start the fruit and veggies, the plan is to make our own baby food. It's a fraction of the cost of the jars, and I know exactly what's in it. For now, here are a couple of pictures of our entry into the world of solids.
First time (end of January):
"Mom, I'm not too sure about this..."
Most recently (end of February):
"Hmm...this isn't so bad..."
And as a bonus, the first time using the mesh feeder...there was a chunk of banana in it, and she seemed to dig it:
"This is much better than that rice stuff, mommy..."
