veggies 1st, fruit 2nd. Reason is that fruit tends to be sweet (which lots of kids love), so I gave veggies first.

Sweet potato, squash, then carrots. After that, we did peas and string beans. We introduced fruit afterwards.

Anywhere from 4 months on, though every baby will be ready at a different time. We tried with DS at 4.5 months and he wasn't ready. A week or 2 later and he was.

I did veggies first starting with green beans then peas. Then I went to orange veggies and then fruit. My doctor said go grossest to tastiest (so in my subjective opinion that was the order) and he did fine. He eats everything now except broccoli.

Do you always mix with cereal?

If you did in the beginning, when did you stop mixing with cereal?

No particular order. I think I did applesauce first and then every 2-3 days I would try another fruit or veggie. I didn't go by color order or all veggies first or anything like that. I don't think it matters.
