First Foods Guide

Educational page for parents

When to start solids

Most babies are ready to start solid foods around 6 months of age. Starting solids is an exciting milestone, but it's important to wait until your baby shows signs of readiness.

  • Exclusive breastfeeding or formula feeding is recommended for the first 6 months
  • Starting too early may increase risk of allergies and digestive issues
  • Every baby develops at their own pace - consult your pediatrician

Signs of readiness

Look for these developmental signs that indicate your baby is ready for solid foods:

  • Can sit up with minimal support and hold head steady
  • Shows interest in food and watches others eat
  • Opens mouth when food approaches
  • Lost tongue-thrust reflex - no longer automatically pushes food out with tongue
  • Can move food from front to back of mouth

Which first food should I choose?

There's no single "best" first food, but here are excellent options:

  • Iron-fortified infant cereal - Rice, oatmeal, or multi-grain mixed with breast milk or formula
  • Pureed vegetables - Sweet potato, carrots, peas, butternut squash
  • Pureed fruits - Banana, avocado, apple, pear
  • Pureed meats - Chicken, turkey, or beef for iron

Introduce one new food at a time and wait 3-5 days before trying another to watch for allergic reactions.

6–8 month feeding guide

6 months:

  • Start with 1-2 tablespoons once a day
  • Smooth, thin purees
  • Breast milk or formula remains primary nutrition

7-8 months:

  • Increase to 2-3 meals per day
  • Thicker purees and mashed foods
  • Introduce soft finger foods
  • 3-4 tablespoons per meal

Common questions

What about allergenic foods?
Current guidelines recommend introducing common allergens (peanuts, eggs, dairy, fish) early, around 6 months, to potentially reduce allergy risk.

How much water should baby drink?
Small sips of water with meals are fine, but breast milk or formula should remain the primary source of hydration.

What foods should I avoid?
Honey (before 12 months), whole nuts, popcorn, raw vegetables, and foods that are choking hazards.
