Feeding your baby can be overwhelming, especially for first-time parents. Here are five common mistakes and how to avoid them.\n\n## Mistake 1: Starting Too Early\n\nStarting solids before 4 months can increase the risk of allergies and digestive issues. Wait for readiness signs and consult your pediatrician.\n\n## Mistake 2: Adding Sugar or Salt\n\nBabies do not need added sugar or salt. Their taste buds are developing, and natural flavors are sufficient. Uggu has natural sweetness from roasted grains.\n\n## Mistake 3: Giving Up Too Soon\n\nBabies may need to try a new food 10-15 times before accepting it. Persistence is key!\n\n## Mistake 4: Not Varying Textures\n\nStart with smooth purees but gradually introduce thicker textures to support oral motor development.\n\n## Mistake 5: Ignoring Hunger Cues\n\nLearn to recognize when baby is hungry vs. full. Forcing feeds can create negative associations with eating.
