I am not starting until 9 months per my pedi but we used Yo Baby with DD. First I tried organic plain and added fruit but she did not like it. I needed her to gain weight and that is when I found Yo Baby. I will try plain with DS at first also simply because of the sugar
I bought a 4 things of Beachnut yogurt pouches because I had 2 buy 1 get 1 free coupon and they were on sale, but haven't given them to DS yet. I think after those 4 are gone I will start mixing my own. I read on wholesomebabyfood.com that she suggests buying plain yogurt and mixing your own fruit in and there are even recipes on the site.
DD doesn't get any yet (she MSPI) but for my older DS he gets Fage Greek yogurt full fat plain with real fruit mixed in.
I buy the big tub and freeze about half of it into ice cubes (b/c we can't use it fast enough). I also buy frozen fruit (or freeze my own when it's cheap in the summer) and I'll warm up some to mix in. I've also used canned fruit - like peaches to mix in. If it's really tart I put in a bit of juice (or honey once he was over a year).
