I've been wondering: what fruit for a 2-month-old baby? As someone with experience, what would you suggest?

2-month-olds don't start solid foods yet — fruit isn't recommended at this age. The World Health Organization and current pediatric guidance say babies should have only breast milk (or formula if the doctor recommends) for the first 6 months.

Your baby's digestive system isn't ready to process solid foods like fruit puree; giving it too early can cause gas cramping, allergy risk, and nutrient absorption problems. Introduction to fruit usually happens around 6 months, when you start adding complementary foods.

Until then, everything your baby needs is in the milk. I understand the curiosity, but patience for now.
