POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy1 Year agoA. The Academy of Pediatrics and many health organizations recommend introducing solid foods to babies around 6 months of age. Before this age, a baby's digestive system is not fully developed, and exclusive breastfeeding or formula feeding is usually sufficient.
However, it's essential to follow your baby's cues and consult with your pediatrician. Some signs that a baby may be ready for solids include:
1. **Head Control:** The baby can hold their head steady.
2. **Sitting with Support:** The baby can sit with support.
3. **Increased Interest:** The baby shows interest in what you're eating and may try to reach for food.
If your baby is not showing these signs or if you have concerns, it's advisable to wait. Starting solids too early can pose risks and may not provide additional nutritional benefits.
Always consult with your pediatrician before introducing any new foods to your baby's diet. They can offer personalized advice based on your baby's health, development, and individual needs.
