The first several months of your little one’s life are filled with so many fun firsts – smiling, giggling, rolling over, sitting up, and so much more. And now, you’re starting to think about another monumental first: his or her first meal!
If the introduction of solids has you feeling excited, nervous, or all the emotions in-between, take comfort in knowing you’re certainly not alone – all these feelings (and feeling them all at the same time!) are only natural with parenting. As adults, so many instinctive actions, such as eating, are things we take for granted; when we’re hungry, we simply grab something and chow down. Yet, when it comes time to introduce solid foods to your precious baby, eating feels like a major life event! So how do you know when your baby is ready for their first meal?
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends the introduction of solid foods around six months of age. Still, ultimately, it’s up to you and your child’s pediatrician to determine when your little one is developmentally ready to take his or her first “bite.”
Check for the following developmental signs of feeding readiness:
Keep in mind that no two babies are the same and that all babies progress physically and developmentally at their own pace. Some may be ready to start eating solids prior to the 6-month mark, and others may need a bit more time. They have their whole lives to eat, so there’s no harm in being patient and taking it slow.
*Be sure to follow along with our Baby Talk series to learn valuable information on feeding your little.
