Recipe Ideas for your 9 Month Old Baby

When introducing solid foods to a 9-month-old, always offer fresh, soft, and easily digestible options due to the baby's developing digestive system.

Encourage self-feeding by showing them how to eat and ensuring they're seated properly, preferably in a high chair. Watch for food allergies, be patient, and avoid force-feeding or overstuffing.
