Tips for starting solids?

So when i saw the health visitor just before my daughter was 6 months they said start with one food at a time to start with. Its one "meal" a day. And I say "meal" its a taster not a replacement of milk at 6 months. I was told to do vegitables for 2 weeks then fruit then mix and go from there with adding in meat and pulses.

I did purees so I did carrot for the first day about 2 table spoons was what I was advised. I just steamed some extra veg the day before hand and smashed it up put it in a sealable pot and gave it the next day or same day if it was for dinner time period.

Pouches are fine but be careful particularly with the fruit one the way they process it to make it shelf stable for a long period of time makes they twice as sugary if not more then if you had some it at home yourself.

You can do BLW if you wish use the solid start app to know how to safetly wean with BLW. I never did it because it terrified me and my daughter has amazing fine motor skills & eats everything

I did 1 meal a day till 8 and a half months then 2 meals a day till 10 and a half months then 3 meals until 1 year. After a year 3 meals and 1 to 2 snacks
