Starting solids at 5 months, vegetables are a good beginning. At this stage, single-ingredient, pureed vegetables are preferred.
Recommended vegetables:
- Carrot (well-boiled and pureed)
- Zucchini (peeled, seeds removed, boiled)
- Sweet potato
- Butternut squash
- Broccoli (florets only, well-boiled)
It's important to introduce each new vegetable alone, waiting 3-4 days between, to watch for allergies or tolerability. Puree should have a yogurt-like consistency; you can thin it with extra water, breast milk, or the formula your baby drinks.
Don't add salt, sugar, spices, oil, or lemon.
If your pediatrician has given the okay to start, begin with one meal a day, 1-2 teaspoons, and increase based on baby's appetite.
