POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy5 months agoA. You can start introducing solids to your baby around 6 months of age, as per pediatric recommendations. At 5 months, breast milk or formula should remain the primary source of nutrition. When starting solids, begin with easily digestible, single-ingredient foods like mashed banana, apple puree, or rice cereal mixed with breast milk or formula. Gradually introduce well-cooked and mashed vegetables like carrots, pumpkin, and sweet potatoes. Offer small spoonfuls and watch for any signs of allergies. Avoid salt, sugar, honey, and cowβs milk until after one year. Always introduce one new food at a time and maintain a slow transition to solids.
