Starting on solid food

1. About last week of 5m, when quite steady to sit with support and kaypo of what we eating. The first few time is mostly lick lick, practice how to eat with a spoon and swallowing.
2. Actually no fixed rule of what food to give 1st so long it does not belong to high risk category to cause allergy and food should not give to baby.
The most traditional approach is cereal->fruit/veg->meat, runny liquid->fine purée->lumpy
Another approach is baby led weaning (BLW).
I feel that it's really depends on your LO. I started with brown rice cereal simply becoz I'm lazy... Just pour water and bm/fm can feed already, and dont think my LO can use finger to grab the food and self feed for a start. Then, I also gave fruit purée like banana, pear etc. But to my surprise my LO likes to "bite" veggie (e.g steamed carrot strips) more.
