Introducing Solid Foods: Practical Tips and Feeding Essentials

Starting solids is an exciting milestone in your baby’s development — filled with discovery, adorable messes, and new nutritional needs. As your little one grows, so does their curiosity for tastes and textures. But how do you know when and how to begin?

At Primo Passi, we believe every phase of parenting should be supported by safe, functional, and affordable solutions. That’s why our line of feeding products is designed to make this new chapter smoother and more joyful for both parents and babies.

🌟 Signs Your Baby Is Ready for Solids

Before introducing solids, watch for these readiness cues:

  • Your baby can sit up with little or no support.

  • They show interest in your food (reaching out, watching you eat).

  • Good head and neck control.

  • The tongue-thrust reflex has diminished (they don’t push food out immediately).

🥄 Smart Tips to Introduce Solids Confidently

  • Start Slow: Begin with a single ingredient, iron-rich food (like pureed meat or fortified cereal).

  • Offer Variety: Gradually introduce fruits, veggies, grains, and proteins — one at a time, waiting 3–5 days between each new food.

  • Respect Your Baby’s Pace: Some days they’ll love peas, other days… not so much! It’s part of the process.

  • Allergies? Observe Closely: Be aware of common allergens like eggs, peanuts, and dairy, and consult your pediatrician before introducing them.

  • Make Mealtimes Positive: No pressure, no forcing — just exploration and encouragement.
