A. Introducing solid foods to a six-month-old baby is an exciting milestone! Here are some nutritious and appropriate options to consider: 1. **Single-Ingredient Purees**: Start with single-ingredient purees of fruits or vegetables. Good options include: - Mashed or pureed bananas, apples, pears, or peaches. - Cooked and pureed sweet potatoes, carrots, squash, or peas. 2. **Iron-Rich Foods**: Introduce iron-rich foods like iron-fortified cereals (rice, oatmeal) or pureed meats (chicken, beef, lamb). Iron is important for baby's growth and development. 3. **Texture**: Begin with smooth and runny textures, gradually progressing to thicker textures as your baby gets used to eating solids. 4. **Small Portions**: Start with small portions (a few teaspoons) once a day, gradually increasing to two to three meals a day based on your baby's interest and readiness. 5. **Breast Milk or Formula**: Continue to offer breast milk or formula before or after solids to ensure your baby gets enough nutrition and hydration. 6. **Avoid Allergens**: Introduce potential allergens (like eggs, dairy, nuts, seafood) one at a time and watch for any signs of allergy. Consult with your pediatrician if you have a family history of allergies. 7. **Feeding Time**: Choose a time when your baby is calm and alert, not overly hungry or tired. 8. **Patience**: Be patient and supportive as your baby learns to eat solids. It's normal for babies to take time to adjust to new tastes and textures. Remember, every baby is different, so go at your baby's pace and follow their cues. If you have concerns or questions about introducing solids, consult with your pediatrician for personalized advice.
