From what age can I give fresh figs to my baby, will the seeds cause problems?

Fresh fig can generally be given starting from the 6th month when complementary foods begin. The seeds don't cause problems for babies — fresh figs have small, soft seeds that don't cause digestive issues or choking risk. What's important is cooking the fig until very soft or making it into a puree, and when giving for the first time, starting with a small amount and waiting 2-3 days to watch for possible allergic reactions. Make sure not to introduce another new food at the same time.
