Answer to the first three questions: I haven't had my baby yet so I can't answer...but, I keep hearing great things about the book Super Baby Food. It talks about when to introduce different foods to your baby and at what stages. I think that is what I'm going to go off of. (If you are interested in the book I know you can get it cheaper on Ebay and Amazon!)
