The paperwork I got from my ped's office was photocopied out of a book or something, from the looks of it. But it basically was a general guideline, saying that it's best to start veggies before fruits because babies will quickly learn to prefer the sweet tastes, and what to look for as far as possible reactions to the foods.

What .I've been doing with .Aly is setting up certain "meal" times. I feed her cereal mixed with veggies (sweet potatoes this week) around noon and again around 6pm, and otherwise nurse her on demand. She doesn't really "fill up" at her little meal times, so she usually gets a boob within an hour afterward.

I've been pretty much playing it by ear, with some help from the mommies here of course.

.I'm sorry, did that answer your question at all?

Yes. Thanks. That is basically what .I've been doing too. It's just reassuring to hear from others experiences as well! We started with some apples and i'm going to do either carrots or sweet potatoes next. Thanks again!
