Babies start solids around the 6th month, but the transition to "regular food" — family meals from the dinner table — happens more gradually.
From 8-9 months onward, purees can be replaced with mashed or small-piece soft home-cooked meals. Starting from 12 months, babies can eat most family meals, as long as they're unsalted, unspiced, and at a texture your baby can chew.
An important point: until age 1, your baby's main nutrition still comes from breastmilk or formula; solids are supplementary at this stage. By 1 year, your baby can start eating the same table with the family, on similar foods. Still, honey, raw milk, shellfish, hard/small choking-risk foods (whole grapes, raw carrot, nuts) are not recommended under 1 year; honey's cutoff is 12 months.
