Schedule for feeding solids...

[FutureHKmom]

Does anyone have a schedule for what solids to give when? I've been giving my 6 month old son rice cereal already and am ready to move on to others. Other than the usual first foods (sweet potato, pumpkin, avocado, banana, apple, carrot, etc), I would like to know what I can try next so am looking for a chart of some sort. My son may be prone to allergies as I had bad excema as a child and he already has a bit of excema so need to worry about allergic reactions too. Thanks!

I follow a book called "Optimum Nutrition for Babies and Young Children" by Lucy Burney. There is a weaning chart and also a chart for avoiding allergies telling you which foods to introduce at which age.

If you PM me your email address I can scan the allergy chart and email it to you.
