It wasn't until Abby was a little over 5 months that we gave her mum mums. I thought this was such a big step because it resembled actual food. I gave her a bite that was no bigger than the tip of my finger because I was petrified of anything going in her mouth...it just seemed to be contrary to everything I had been sure to avoid up until this point. Slowly but surely we worked up to bigger chunks and in no time she was eating them fairly independently. Now she eats EVERYTHING!
With Zack, I started giving him rice cereal after he turned 4 months and now that he is almost 5 months he is up to about 3 or 4 entire attempts at it (I told you I was not big on the baby food stage...).
Just recently I bought mum mums and I took it out of the package and didn't even think twice before I gave him the whole cracker. He took it in stride and got right to work on it. He is just a go with the flow kind of guy and is so happy.
