    sumi, start with stage one purees....refrain from cerelac till another month.... we got our baby constipated with homemade rice cereal, i can only imagine what it would have been with cerelac!boy oh boy!

    for now i am giving her fruit and veggie purees , either homemade or gerber, if the fruit/veggie isnt available

    Dear Sumi,
    Look into the previous threads to get an idea regarding first solids. My personal suggestion would be to start with homemade food- a small spoonful once a day(preferably morning) then gradually increase the amount and rate.
