Introducing solids is a thrilling milestone! Our pediatrician-approved feeding chart takes the guesswork out of introducing foods to your 6-12 month old, while highlighting crucial allergy prevention strategies. Start confidently with this step-by-step roadmap.
Focus on iron-rich purees and single-ingredient foods. Offer 1-2 tbsp, 1-2 times daily after milk feeds:
Best First Foods: Iron-fortified cereal, mashed avocado, sweet potato, pear, banana.
Allergy Alert ⚠️: Introduce peanut butter (diluted with water), egg (well-cooked), and yogurt separately. Wait 3-5 days between new foods.
Texture: Smooth, runny purees. Use a soft-tip spoon.
Stage 2: Expanding Flavors (9-10 Months)
Introduce lumpy textures and finger foods. Increase to 3 meals daily:
New Foods: Shredded chicken, flaked fish, oatmeal, beans (mashed), broccoli florets, melon sticks.
Allergy Alert ⚠️: Watch for reactions to soy (tofu), wheat (toast strips), and shellfish. Avoid honey until age 1.
Texture: Soft, mashed lumps; easy-to-grip finger foods.
Stage 3: Self-Feeding Mastery (11-12 Months)
Transition toward family meals. Offer 3 meals + 2 snacks:
Food Examples: Scrambled eggs, pasta, minced meat, small fruit pieces, cottage cheese.
Allergy Alert ⚠️: Monitor sesame (hummus), tree nuts (finely ground), and kiwi. Ensure choking hazards (grapes, nuts) are avoided.
Texture: Chopped soft foods; encourage self-feeding with utensils.
Top Allergens: Cow's milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, wheat, fish, shellfish.
Early Introduction: Research shows introducing peanuts/eggs between 4-11 months may reduce allergy risk by up to 80%.
Red Flags: Hives, vomiting, wheezing, or facial swelling within 2 hours? Contact pediatrician immediately.
