Every parent knows the difficulty of feeding a child, particularly when they’re still extremely young. So the transition from feeding liquids to solids can be a arduous task. The age a baby usually switches to solids is around 6 months but if your baby refuses solids, don’t worry.

A sign that a baby is ready for solids is when they are able to hold and support their head and body well and begin picking up objects and placing it in their mouths. The best way to be sure is to give your baby a teething biscuit before moving onto puréed food on a spoon.
