POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy9 months agoA. At 5 months old, it is generally recommended to start introducing solid foods in the form of pureed or mashed foods, but not liquid food like juices or soups. According to pediatric guidelines, breast milk or formula should still be the primary source of nutrition at this age. You can begin with single-ingredient purees such as mashed fruits (apple, banana) or vegetables (sweet potato, pumpkin) to introduce your baby to solids. However, ensure that the consistency is smooth to avoid any choking hazard. Always consult your pediatrician before introducing new foods to ensure your baby is ready for them.
