When introducing solid foods to a 6-month-old baby, it is recommended to start with single ingredient purees and gradually introduce more variety and texture as the baby becomes more accustomed to eating solids.
Some good fruits to try as a first food for a 6-month-old baby include:
-
Banana: Mash a ripe banana with a fork or blend it until smooth.
-
Avocado: Mash a ripe avocado with a fork or blend it until smooth.
-
Apple: Peel, core, and puree cooked apples.
-
Peach: Peel and puree cooked peaches.
-
Mango: Peel and puree ripe mango.
-
Pear: Peel, core, and puree cooked pears.
It is important to remember to start with small amounts and introduce new foods one at a time, waiting a few days in between each new food to watch for any signs of allergic reactions.
It is also important to remember to never leave a baby alone while eating and to always provide appropriate supervision during meals.
