Most babies this age try solid foods. Experts recommend slowly starting solid foods when a baby is about 6 months old, depending on the baby’s readiness and nutritional needs.

• Can your baby support his or her own head? To eat solid food, an infant needs good head and neck control and should be able to sit up.
• Is your baby interested in food? A 6-month-old baby who stares and grabs at your food at dinnertime is clearly ready for some variety in the food department.

If your doctor gives the go-ahead but your baby seems frustrated or uninterested as you’re introducing solid foods, try waiting a few days or even weeks before trying again. Solids are only a supplement at this point — breast milk and formula will still meet your baby’s basic nutritional needs.
