The WHO recommends introducing solids at around 6 months.
Signs of readiness: holds head steady, sits with support, shows interest in your food.
First foods: avocado, banana, sweet potato, squash, iron-fortified cereals.
Safety: upright in a high chair (like the Stokke Tripp Trapp), always supervised, no whole nuts, unhalved grapes or honey before age one.
