It depends on individual babies but my gal is 9mo and I am giving her three meals of solids already. But for dinner and breakfast she doesn't eat a lot. I give her three meals a day also to get her into the practice of having normal meals three times a day together with the family. I read before that by one year old they should have transited to three meals a day. I think you can start already. You may want to give small quantities first and see if your baby is receptive to it. Their stomach size is still small and need to expand slowly. I don't think there is a hard and fast rule of when to start but the PD was ok when I said my gal is on three meals a day. Even my nephew who is coming to 7 months is taking two times solids a day as his PD told my sister in law to try.
