I voted "homemade" though I'm interested in not giving pureed food.... but don't know whether or not I will follow through on it. I still have to do some more research.

I have a few jars of babyfood I bought while on sale and I had a coupon. I wanted to make her food but now it looks like I will be returning to work so I am not sure if I will have the time.

My boys all had jar food and ended up ok

Mix of both, like I did with my girls. My mom also made them food & brought it over. We will start with fruits & veggies around 6 months and go from there. Towards 12mos we'll be adding it food from the table, not earlier. I did this with my girls & now they are both wonderful eaters & eat a huge variety of foods so I plan to do that again.

I have no idea, probably will do more table food grounded up and more or less let her eat it herself. want her to learn to eat on her own with fingers and then go from there. Will start when I see she is ready, probably after 6 months or so.
I will more then likely spoon feed cereal and then everything else we will just put in front of her and go from there.

I want to do homemade but I have a feeling I won't have time to make as much as I need. So I plan on doing a combo of homemade and store bought jars.

I voted homemade, but I am thinking about doing baby led weaning, so I probably won't be doing purees much if at all.

Gonna do a mix of both but will most likely be 90% store and some homemade. I like to get to regular food just mashed or whatever as soon as I can.

1 or 4 depending on how old he is when he decides he's ready for solids.

Probably a mix of both. Veggies and most fruit I made for my dd but she had texture/consistency issues and I could never get meat pureed enough for her so I bought that and som fruits. If Nathan isn't as picky (hopefully!) I might be able to just make all of it...!

I don't know much about it, all I know is I'd like to do home made, I want the baby breva machine. I will give purees and stuff but I will also try and let her eat on her own little bits of our food too.

Definitely making my own. I already have a food processor that I use a lot anyway and we always have the foods we would be feeding her around the house, so it is just so much cheaper and easier. Plus she gets used to my cooking from the start.

I'll do a mixture of both. With Ethan I did all store bought and by 9 mths he wouldn't eat much of it, so I started making my own and he ate that a lot better.

I plan on doing both. I only used store bought with Stella, and will probably use mostly store bought with Duncan. I want to give making my own a shot to save some money though. Baby food is silly amounts of expensive.

I made all of DD's food so I plan to do the same for DS. It was actually kinda fun! Doesn't take that much time and I have the peace of mind knowing exactly what's in it!
