You're actually not required to start on rice cereal. Since infant formulas are fortified with iron now, rice cereal is no longer necessary in an infant's diet. You can start on pureed fruits and veggies at 4-6 months without issue. I would just spoon out one or two spoonfuls of ONE item into a separate dish (don't dip the spoon back into a container you plan on putting back in the fridge. bacteria will start to grow that way) and try them with baby. Stay with that one item for a week and then try something else the next week and so on. After a few weeks you can start combining things. You can introduce pureed meats at any time, contrary to popular belief. Good luck!
