Solids
My boy turning 6months soon. But he cannot sit w/o support. I cannot give him puree yet right?
My boy is turning 6 months next week but he cannot sit without support too. I’m still trying to train him to sit upright. My PD explained that as long as we can support the baby to keep him from falling back (or else he may choke on the food), we can feed him. To feed him, you can buy a baby booster seat like the picture attached as it has an insert that provides more support for babies. I’m getting one soon 😃

You can buy those high chair that has the resting cushion at the back so he can sit and lay back. You can still give puree, just dont give the one that's super thick yet
Can your baby hold his head. If yes, you can start feeding him purées. If not, just wait till he can hold his head and sit
You can try to give him pureed veggie with milk. If he can swallow it then he's ready
Hey, You can start giving in moderation. Try mixing fruit purees in milk
you just need to train him, put him in sitting position more often
Watch out for constipation when baby first start solid
6 months can eat some solids like pumpkin
Puree is fine, I will hold the solid
