From about 8 months onwards your baby will be able to cope with slightly coarser food. Your baby’s food doesn’t need to be puréed quite so much and can contain small, but soft vegetable or fruit pieces. This change encourages your baby to chew.
*Milk feeding is still the best source of added calcium for your baby’s development. It is highly recommended to continue milk feeding to up to 24 months of age to ensure strong bone development. The age in months shown is the earliest possible time to introduce solid foods. According to your baby’s development suggested by your doctor, ages may vary by 1-2 months. Variations from this table are entirely natural.
