    I think once a day, but not a meal replacement. it is just to get them used to it at first. We just started about an hour ago and she didnt open her mouth for it, so I see no light at the end of the tunnel...

    ohh well, she can stay my baby forever anyway :)

    I did once a day for about 2 weeks, and then twice a day after that. Generally before his second feeding of the day, and right before his last one.

    I had planned to wait until 6 months, but he's actually showing signs that he'e ready now so we will talk to the pedi about it at our appt. Tues. Depending on her opinion, my idea is to start with it just around dinner time, after he BF's. If it goes well, then in a few days we may add some banana as my friend achase123 does. But we will probbaly only do once a day at first, and maybe a little more on the weekends (like when we have breakfast). I don't plan on sending anything to daycare until he's on fruits and veggies.
    Um, yeah. The Bump be too crazy for pics of my kid.

    We did once a day for 2 weeks and then we tried to do 2 times a day, but she started to eat less formula so we cut back to once again and introduced squash this morning instead of cereal. She was not too sure about it though and did not open her mouth as wide as she does with cereal.
