cherry - they say that you should try one meal a day to start but I decided to offer it three times a day to start with. It took us a week and a half before Amy would start to take it. She HATED rice cereal and it made her chukky so I only gave it to her twice and tried pumpkin. She really liked that. I would get her used to vegies first and then try the sweeter stuff cos they are always going to like the sweeter stuff. I puree everything but I give Amy small pieces of banana and avocado. I feed her though. I'll eventually give her pieces to feed herself but I don't feel like she's ready yet. Amy now has brekky (some multigrain cereal stuff rafferty's garden, apricot and banana flavour) and I offer her vegies for lunch (I've made up a mix of pumpkin, sweet potato, carrot and beans but she's not the biggest fan hehehe) and then some fruit for afternoon tea unless she didn't want the vegies for lunch and then I offer her vegies again. HTH. I'm no expert but that's what is working for us so far :-)

Maz - I'm so ignorant. I didn't realise that was how you pronounced Mateauz's name....I thought it was Matoouz as well sorry I much prefer your pronunciation.
