We recommend waiting on cereal until 4 months of age (this should be given in a spoon not a bottle.)
We recommend starting baby food after 6 months of age.
When introducing baby food, add a new food every 3 days. This gives you time to watch for potential allergies to a new food before adding another.
It is appropriate to start giving water in a sippy cup at 6 months of age.
Table foods should not be introduced before the baby is able to sit upright in a highchair and feed themselves with their fingers.
All table foods should be cut into small pieces so as to prevent choking.
More specific instruction will be discussed at your well check with your provider. Feel free to make a list of questions you may have and bring them with you to your visit.
