I’s a good idea to start feeding your baby in his own highchair.

Pediatricians recommendation is that introducing solid foods to babies is safe to start between 4 and 6 months.
Introducing solids before this age might have negative effect on his development because baby’s digestive system is immature.

Egg ( Yolk ) might be introduced to babies after 8 months
Pay attention on fact that it has to be well cooked.
The egg white can be given only after 1 year. Read more in Monthly chart for meat and proteins
Pay attention also on this:
Egg allergy appears mainly, but not exclusively, in children. In fact, it is the second most common food allergy in children. Read more about egg allergy.

Dairy can be introduced between 6 and 8 months. Find more information in monthly chart for dairy

Meat can be introduced after 7 months. Find more in monthly chart for meat and proteins to see when to introduce each kind of meat

Vegetables can be introduced between 6 and 8 months. Read more in vegetable monthly chart

Do not introduce aliments based on gluten before 6 months. It has to be introduced in small quantities to see if there is any allergic reaction to it. In the first 3 days don’t mix it with anything in order to detect from the beginning if your baby has an allergic reaction.

Meat can be given to 7 months old babies. Find relevant information in Meat, Proteins Monthly Chart

Get to know you baby. He will always try to communicate with you. Just pay attention to him.

At first he’ll eat semi-liquid cereal mix just once a day. By around 8 months he should be eating solid food three times a day. A typical day’s diet at this point might consist of:

Solids will be introduced gradually, one at a time, waiting at least 3 days until the next ingredient will be given. In case of food allergies is easier this way to identify which one caused the allergy. Signs of an allergy may include diarrhea, bloated stomach, gas, rash. Wait at least a week to introduce the next ingredient if an allergy occurred.

YES!
Both provide important vitamins, iron, and protein in an easy-to-digest form. Solid food can’t replace all the nutrients that breast milk or formula provides during that first year.

Your baby’s appetite will vary from one feeding to the next, so a strict accounting of the amount he’s eaten isn’t a reliable way to tell when he’s had enough. If your baby leans back in his chair, turns his head away from food, starts playing with the spoon, or refuses to open up for the next bite, he has probably had enough. (Sometimes a baby will keep his mouth closed because he hasn’t yet finished with the first mouthful, so be sure to give him time to swallow.)

A good rule is to start with rice cereals because are gluten free and less allergenic than other foods. You should give first breast milk or formula and then try on the tip of the teaspoon cereals mixed with milk and take care to be semisolid.
If your baby doesn’t seem interested in it, let him smell it first, and let him get used with the idea. If he still doesn’t like it try it in a week or two. Maybe he will like it or he will hate it, respect your baby preferences.

Your baby will give you clear signs when he’s ready to move beyond liquid-only nourishment. Cues to look for include:

Solid food can be introduced between 4 and 6 months if your baby is ready. Until then, breast milk or formula provides all the calories and nourishment your baby needs and can handle. His digestive system simply isn’t ready for solids until he nears his half-birthday.
