Feeding Your Baby: 6 Months to One Year
The most important food in your baby’s first year is breast milk. Breastfeeding can continue for 24 months and beyond.
Around six months, your baby will show signs that he or she is ready for solids. If your baby was born prematurely, use his or her corrected age.
Keep things simple and start solid foods when your baby is ready.
