A. If your baby is 4 months old, it's generally recommended to wait until 6 months before starting semi-solid foods, as per WHO and pediatric guidelines. At 6 months, babies are developmentally more ready — they can sit with support, hold their head steady, and show interest in food. However, if your pediatrician suggests early weaning due to specific reasons (like low weight gain), you may start very small amounts of iron-rich, smooth purees like rice cereal or moong dal water. Always consult your doctor before starting solids before 6 months.
