Frequently asked questions
When should my baby start solid foods?
Most babies are ready around six months, when they can sit with support, hold their head steady, and show interest in food. Look for readiness signs and talk to your pediatrician about what to start with and how to progress.
How do I know if my baby is getting enough milk?
Wet and dirty diapers, steady weight gain, and contentment after feeds are the usual signs. Every baby is different, so if you are worried about feeding or weight, your pediatrician is the best person to check.
What should I do about a picky eater?
Keep offering a variety of foods without pressure, serve small portions, and eat together as a family. It can take many exposures before a food is accepted. If your child is not gaining weight, is dropping many foods, or you are worried, talk to your pediatrician.
