Solids, responsively, every day
What it is
Iron-rich food daily; 2–3 meals at 6–8 months growing to 3–4 plus snacks by 9–11; follow hunger and fullness cues, never pressure.
Always on
- Meat, poultry, fish, egg, legumes and fortified cereal are the iron carriers.
- Textures move forward month by month; lumps are a skill, not a hazard, when seated and supervised.
