First foods for babies

Introducing local, nutritious foods alongside breastfeeding.

⚠ Clinical review pending

Around six months, babies typically begin eating soft foods alongside breast milk.

Local foods like mashed sweet potato, pumpkin and enriched porridge can be good starting points.

Ask a health worker about your child's specific needs, allergies or growth concerns.
