Some tips
-
Thinking of introducing solid foods to your 6-month-old baby? If you’re not sure - or if your baby doesn’t seem to be interested in solid foods, ask your pediatrician.
-
Begin your baby’s solids diet with iron-fortified cereal and combine it with breast milk (or formula if you wish). As he gets used to solids, feed him strained vegetables and fruits, but do this one at a time - ideally over several days for each - to ensure he’s not allergic to any of the food.
- Make sure you keep track of his reactions to certain food, such as rashes, vomiting, or loose bowel movement.
