Solids?

My doctor said we could start now at 4 mos if we want....we will probably wait a few more months for a few reasons but want to have something on hand in the near future just in case she starts to seem ready earlier than our plan of 6 months. What brands do you like and what foods? Obviously single ingredient foods would be what we're looking for, but so curious what people like. I am thinking Beech Nut brand and thinking of starting with apples or sweet potatoes but I have no real rhyme or reason for that and am still deciding what is best. Thanks in advance for any tips!!

I started LO a week ago on organic veggies and oatmeal. I wouldn't set a date on when to start just watch LO and look for signs he is ready...mine was way ready

We are going to start sometime in the next week or so she has been pushing the bottle away and seems a little ready for new things. I'm excited to see if she loves green beans like me and dad haha.

They actually say to start with your veggies first. With ds, we did peas, then green beans, then carrots. If you start with the fruits right away, they get used to that sweet taste, then they usually won't eat the veggies. We didn't start until 6 months, which we'll most likely do again. He didn't like the texture of just baby food and would only eat it if we mixed in some rice cereal.
Edited to add we used the Gerber brand. They had more of a variety than the rest. We will use them again this time too.
