Age-by-age guide to feeding your baby | BabyCenter
Use this guide to find out what and how much to feed your child in the first year. The amounts are meant as rough guidelines only, so don't worry if your little one eats a bit more or less than shown. It's a good idea to discuss your solid feeding plan with your child's doctor before getting started.
You don't have to introduce foods to your child in any special order. If you want to give your baby a taste of tofu at age 6 months, go ahead, even though it's not listed on our chart until age 8 months. And while cereal is a traditional first food in the United States, it's just fine to start with mashed fruits or vegetables instead. See our new rules for feeding your baby and ideas for adventurous first foods.
In most cases, you won't have to wait to introduce highly allergenic foods like eggs, fish, and peanuts, either (read more about food allergies). Ask your doctor, though, to be sure – and see our tips for introducing new foods, below.
