Emilio was introduces to solids a couple days before he turned 6 months. We started with pureed brown rice . He didn't seem to like the plain brown rice very well, so I only gave it to him for 3 days, and then we continued on to mashed avocados. Then he was given bananas, then apples, then oatmeal, then barley, than carrots. He didn't like the carrots; he gagged a lot, them threw it all up.
