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

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

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.

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.
