I had the same thought. "Sweet Potatoes are WAY better than loose poop!"OMG! Sweet potatoes are fine for a child who has WHAT to eat?
(Sorry, memories of my third grade English grammar teacher made me ask)

Uuuhhh...pick up "What To Expect the First Year". Or Dr. Spock (has excellent advice for common illnesses, too). You're not far off from your daughter being able to eat pretty much anything you do, just cut up in littler bits. The more variety she has, the less of a picky eater she's likely to be.So it's ok to give my 8 month old toast? White toast? We eat wheat toast...is that ok? She loves crackers!! Well she just sucks on them and spits them out really.
Plus baby food is crazy-expensive... and have you TASTED it? Blech.Uuuhhh...pick up "What To Expect the First Year". Or Dr. Spock (has excellent advice for common illnesses, too).

I used a miniature food processor and pureed much of what we were eating - and then froze it in small ice cube trays so she could have a variety- not just what we were eating.Plus baby food is crazy-expensive... and have you TASTED it? Blech.
I kept baby food on hand for ease when we were traveling or visiting, but other than that, my kids exclusively ate table food, complete with whatever seasoning happened to be on it. I never worried about if they were the "right age" for something, or if it was spicy or garlicky, or whatever. They've all survived.
