Started at 5th month. Sometimes I will prepare baby food together with adults food. Example, I make ABC soup and mashed the carrot and potatoes in it for baby puree. Once a while I steam sweet potatoes for myself and give a portion to the baby (mashed into puree). If I'm lazy, I will use strainer to mash avocado and mix it with rice cereal for baby. When I'm lazier, I just mix cerelac rice cereal (gifts from people, sweet) with Gerber rice cereal (no sweet) to make a quick meal for baby. I just bought a rechargeble and portable fruits blender for adult and baby use, going to cook chicken or fish porridge and blend into smooth puree using it. Tried banana, not so successful as baby reject it
Started at 5.5 months when baby can sit unsupported. Try one type of food for 2-3 days to ensure baby has no allergy, and once a day. I bought an Avent 4in1 food maker. For the first week i only mashed fruits or vege with breast milk. After that tried steaming and blending a mixture of 2-3 vege (butternut squash, carrot) and also rice porridge. Can also start with baby cereal first.
I started about 5 month when baby can sit up. https://community.theasianparent.com/q/first-food-i-gave-babyi-started-when-5-month-oldi-started-with-1-sc/1682976?d=mobile&ct=q&share=true Here's one of the post I've share.
