cereal vs. food

oKay so about a month ago my daughter started on infant cereal.
a week ago I started her on fruits (Pears then Apples)
I introduced tehm slowly.... and I should be moving on to bananas but I hear it can constipate baby badly... I was wondering if I should introduce prunes then prunes with bananas? Anyone have any suggestions? Because I skipped it and moved onto peas... I would like her to have all them tho.

Also I will ask my doctor too but as for cereal do the babies really need it once they are on fruits and veggis? because my daughter does not like it at all!

if your daughter doesn't like cereal, don't give it to her. have you tried oatmeal? that's what I got my daughter to finally eat and they have oatmeal with applesauce, that's a good one to try. the banana baby food is nasty, I always just skipped that one. give her real bananas

i mix the cereal with the fruit and veggies emma likes the oatmeal cereal with the fruits and stuff and the rice or mixed cereal with the veggies.......the bananas though they dont constipate every baby mine doesnt have probs with them if they give her problems though you can give her something else that you have already tried....i dont know if i would give her prunes as a normal everyday fruit i think you might be sorry!! maybe give her bananas and if she is constipated then give her prunes with it .....hope i helped lol

I say it's not too big of a deal if you don't give her it by itself.

Have you done veggies yet? Try mixing some with veggies, like sweet potatos or carrots.

I just started peas tonight but she was full so I will continue tomorrow... But thats smart because I was thinking of doing fruit for breakfast and lunch... then veggis with cereal or oatmeal for dinner...
