Liver
6 months and up
⚡ Quick answer
Liver is an iron reserve, but its vitamin A is VERY high: after 6 months it can be given once a week, in an amount not exceeding 1 teaspoon, as a thoroughly cooked puree.
How to serve it by age?
6-8 months
Thoroughly cooked and pureed — a very small amount (a teaspoon), within a vegetable puree.
9-11 months
Continues as a mash once a week in a small portion.
12+ months
The amount can increase a little; the frequency should not exceed 1-2 times a week.
📌 Watch out for these
- Too much liver = too much vitamin A; it can accumulate and harm babies — the amount rule is important.
- Freshness and full cooking are critical; it is good to consult your pediatrician before starting.
