Starting solids generally begins when your baby reaches 6 months old. Initially, single-ingredient, easy-to-digest vegetable purees (such as carrot, squash, potato) or fruit purees (apple, pear, banana) can be tried. Each new food is introduced alone, 3-5 days apart, watching for signs of allergy or intolerance. Early consistency is puree, gradually progressing to lumpy, then finger foods. During weaning, breast milk or formula remains your baby's primary food source; solids supplement meals. No sugar, salt, or honey (under 1 year — botulism risk) are added. Cow's milk is not recommended as a drink before one year. Health authorities recommend continuing 400 IU vitamin D supplementation daily alongside solid foods. Every baby's readiness is different, so consulting your pediatrician before starting is best.
