## Is Your Baby Ready?
Starting solid foods is an exciting milestone! Here are the signs that your little one is ready:
### 1. Good Head Control
Your baby can hold their head steady and sit with support.
### 2. Interest in Food
They watch you eat and may reach for your food.
### 3. Loss of Tongue-Thrust Reflex
They no longer automatically push food out of their mouth.
### 4. Doubled Birth Weight
Most babies are ready around when they've doubled their birth weight.
### 5. Still Hungry After Milk Feeds
They seem unsatisfied after nursing or bottle-feeding.
### Starting Right
Once you notice these signs (usually around 6 months), start with simple, easily digestible foods like Uggu. Begin with thin consistencies and gradually thicken as your baby adapts.
### What to Avoid
- Don't rush the process
- Avoid honey before 1 year
- Skip added salt and sugar
- Wait 3-5 days between new foods to check for allergies
