When a baby is born obviously it has either its mothers milk or formula. Around 2/3 months the milk will not satisfy a baby, as it may feel hungry because of growth etc. so this is when you can feed your baby 'baby rice' (which looks like very runny porridge) this helps as a filler, to fill baby up. This is a slow start to introducing very soft bland foods to your baby. It is worth giving baby a baby spoon to play with, so it gets used to the texture and will encourage biting the spoon in the right places so baby will soon learn how to take food off the spoon. Around 3/4 months, you could give your baby a very ripe banana, this is possibly one of the first fruits your baby will taste (and usually love!) Between the age of 4 months and 6 months, you would usually feed your child either baby food jars or food you have prepared yourself blitzed down to a paste or smooth to start, then as your child gets older, start to make it more lumpy, this encouraging the baby to start the chewing motion.

Please remember this is only a rough guide, each baby is different and will develop at a different rate, if in any doubt please see your G.P or health visitor.

Hope this helps! xx

Children typically start eating solid foods around 6 months of age when they show signs of readiness such as sitting up and showing interest in food. Initially, they start with puréed or mashed fruits, vegetables, and single-grain cereals before gradually moving on to more solid foods. It's important to introduce a variety of nutritious foods to support their growth and development.

How do you start bieng anorexic?

You stop eating! Anorexia is when you don't eat. Or you eat very little (like 200 calories). And you over exercise, and you're basically just not eating! It's a bit of a silly question. You're ultimately asking, "How do you start being someone who does not eat." You just stop eating!
