My baby is ready for some foods. Any ideas for simple foods to start her off on? I try one new thing a week so that I see if she has any reaction to it...so far shes had banana and avocado.

Look at the selection of baby food jars in the supermarket for inspiration.

you are supposed to start with rice cereal. easy to digest and make it very thin to start off with with breast milk or formula so its similar to what they are used to. then move on to jars

my babies liked rice cereal too, and I think there's iron in it that's important for babies.

mommy2, you know that it has iron in it, I know that, but try telling it to my son!

with my son , I never gave him rice cereal as it is constipating. and he had major issues in that deparment.

he liked barley and oat cereal ( especially with fruit added to it)

one thing I was told rather give vegies before fruit so that the kids get used to savoury tastes before the sweet tastes of fruit

dd started rice cereal today and she lapped it up. she had been crying, and she actually started smiling when we gave it to her. she hated the applesauce though.
