When should I start making homemade baby food?

[Guest]

Good morning doctors, thanks for all the guides. My baby will be 6 months on August 5 but if I count it by weeks she will be 6 months this Sunday. Now my question is: Should I introduce home made food after Sunday or wait till next month, she has been on exclusive breasting since birth.

B.W: 2.7
Weight at 4 months 3 weeks 5.7

Is the weight okay?

You start immediately she clocks 6 months, (that should be on the 5th of August). Remember to introduce one meal at a time so that you will know if she is reacting to any of the food you are feeding her with.

Please note also that breastfeeding continues along side complimentary feeding on till baby is 2 years old.

The weight is OK.

Don't miss: 6 months: Can I introduce another food now?
