We started at 7 months. Chicken, steamed veggies, bananas, rice, beans, potatoes, pasta are what he's had so far .

Thank you ladies. I really want to make my own and it seems a lot easier than what i thought ot would! For pp who went straigjt to table foods, how old was your lo and what dod you feed?

Skipped the cereals. I made my own baby food with DD2 & it's so much easier, cheaper & healthier! I could combine foods that I wanted or just make individuals. Started with stage 1, boiled the veggies & puréed it (even added BM to help smooth it out). Step 2 I didn't purée it as much, step 3, I left little "chunks". By the time DD was 10-11months she was on mostly table foods.

I'm going to do baby led weaning around 7/8 months

We skipped purees and went straight to table foods.

We skipped the cereal. Her first food was bananas and apples. We used the blender and mixed it with breast milk instead of water to purée it

I made all my daughters food, we started with avocado it's easy to digest and fantastic for brain development, but she didn't care for purees so we went with baby led weaning around 7 months she was much more receptive to that :)

Making your own baby purees is very easy. For fruits and vegtables, you just boil or steam them with a bit of water and then blend them. A lot of people start with vegetables. Carrots, avocado (which you don't cook, just mush it), etc. I started with baby oat cereal and vegetables, but a lot of people skip the cereals.
