What is the best first food for baby?

Hi mommies,

My baby is 4month. My mom said that the best to give her banana now. But I read that best to give baby food is 6 month. Should I give my baby food now or next 2 month? And what food is the best for her.

Thanks mommies

Hi there,

6 months is the best time to start on semi solids. Starting at 4 months could give your baby health issues later in life.
You can try cooked brown rice powder or soft fruits such as, bananas. Steamed fish or tofu is fine too.
