Give your child a solid start
The Department for Health and Social Care has launched the Better Health Start for Life - Introducing Solid Foods campaign.
Weaning is when you introduce your baby to solid foods alongside breast milk or infant formula.
The NHS recommends that most parents should wait until their baby is around six months old before they start introducing solid foods. Despite this, lots of parents wonder when they should start and what they should feed their baby. To support parents, a dedicated weaning hub is available on the Better Health Start for Life website offering support and advice during what can be a confusing time.
The weaning hub is packed with NHS-endorsed advice, videos and tips, plus simple, healthy recipes, putting everything parents need to know in one place.
