My hubby and I prefer whole food so we practice Babyled weaning with my both girls; it proved to be one of our best parenting decision. I just give my 10 months baby anything my family is having just that her share is without salt, sugar, seasonings. By giving them food we eat, it also caution me to be more carefully in what I eat for my meal which in turn becoming good eating habits for whole family. If BLW is not you cup of tea, I will recommend vegetables/fruit purée over porridge or cereal after much research. There are many new research that shared why rice production is not suitable as baby first food due to high level of arsenic, sugar etc. Apart from it, newer research has pointed out that sugar is bad for their brain development as well as a good breeding ground for some virus. Just sharing my two cents worth.
