Before introducing a number of recipes to present to your baby, there are general guidelines to follow when introducing solids to your baby that will make the transition smooth and less challenging for both, mommy and the baby.

1- Go slowly and don't push your little one to eat solids, just wait till you feel his ready, but you can start at 6 months to offer him small bites to taste.

2- Wait to see signs of acceptance of food, meaning, you have to feed your child one type of food at a time and see if he has allergy or his stomach is not accepting it,
