ADVICE

Starting Solids Schedule

  • Start with one to two meals a day for 6-7-month-old babies starting solids.
  • Increase to two to three meals by 8-9 months, and three meals by 10-11 months.
INSIGHT

Early Weaning Focus

  • Babies don't eat much in the beginning of baby-led weaning, so focus on practice.
  • The weaning period is about learning to eat, not necessarily eating large amounts.
ADVICE

Allergen Introduction

  • Introduce potential allergens earlier in the day, not at night.
  • Allergic reactions typically occur within minutes to two hours after eating.
