]]>Before starting a solid food diet, talk to a pediatrician. The doctor will be able to tell if the child is ready for solid food. You’ll also need to know how much to give the baby at feeding time as well as the types of food to offer.
Get a high chair for the solid food feeding and let him test it before starting. Use smaller plastic bowls with a plastic spoon. The spoon is better to prevent irritation to his gum. You can allow him to play with the spoon to ease him into it.
This helps the baby to get used to the process and makes it easier next time. He may even start to feed himself with his hands.
Don’t start to feed your baby when he is sleepy and tired. Wait until he is happy and hungry. Start with a small quantity of infant formula and then offer him the main meal.
Even if your baby rejects the food, don’t write it off. Keep introducing it until he gets used to the flavor.
