A. Hello, By around 6 months, babies need to start having solid food. Introducing solids is also important for helping babies learn to eat, giving them experience of new tastes and textures from a range of foods. around 6 months old So when can you give water to your baby? Most experts suggest that you wait until you've started solids, when your little one is around 6 months old. You can start solids between 4 and 6 months old, but experts recommend waiting until your baby is closer to 6 months in most cases.
