When to start 2nd foods for babies?

Question

My baby is 6 months and im on 1st foods jarss. when do you start 2nd stage foods?

Answer 1

Once your baby eats many of the 1st foods jars you can move on to second foods. They are just a little thicker and sometimes have more than once food - mixed veggies i/o just carrots or peas...6 months should be fine to start the transition.

Answer 2

I started feeding my daughter more solid foods when she started eating less of the mushy stuff.  I didn't buy baby food, though. I always fed her steamed vegetables and soft fruits.  I think around ten months I started giving her cherrios and stuff like that.

Answer 3

my ped had me start at 5 months  

Answer 4

Generally, when your baby can sit up on his/her own, then you can start 2nd foods.
