Frequently asked questions

We’re here to help. Browse through our common questions to get quick answers.

How do I know my baby is ready for solids?

Many babies start solids around 6 months. Signs to look for may include sitting upright with support, holding their head steady or showing interest in food. Every baby is different, so it's important to go at their pace.

How do I introduce new textures safely?

Begin with smooth purees and progress to thicker textures, then soft finger foods as your baby grows. Ensure foods are soft enough to mash manageable pieces to avoid choking. Always consult with your healthcare professional if you have concerns about your child’s diet and nutritional needs.

How much solid food should I give my baby?

Start with small amounts, such as a few teaspoons, once per day. Gradually increase the quantity and frequency as your baby gets used to eating solids. Let your baby guide you: they’ll show you when they’re full. For specific concerns, check with your healthcare professional.
