Introducing your baby to solids begins around
6 months of age. Start with baby rice cereal that you can purchase at the grocery
store and mix it with breast milk, formula or boiled water, the amount of
liquid to add will be listed on the box. The first time you introduce your
little one to solids whether it be with cereal, veggies or fruit, always start
off with only a few tablespoons, then gradually increase the amount you give
your baby. This is also important in case your baby has a reaction or allergy
to a new food.
For fruit puree- peel and chop fruit, add a little water,
and lightly boil until fruit is tender. Once tender place fruit in a blender
and blend until smooth.
For vegetables- steam veggies until tender. Drain (optional)
then blend. You can also add breast milk or formula to the veggies before
blending.
