Typically, watermelon can be introduced once baby is older than 6 months when giving solids to baby. It is soft and watery, making it slightly easier for baby to bite and swallow. That being said, it is important to cut it into small bite sized pieces in case baby swallow it whole without chewing. Also, ensure that there are no seeds in the watermelon served. Follow the 4-day rule when introducing a new type of food for your baby. Here are some signs of allergic reaction to watermelon to watch out for: - Rash - Diarrhea - Vomiting - Lightheadedness - runny nose And here is a useful link on some suggested first food and their serving sizes for your reference: http://www.healthhub.sg/live-healthy/156/babys_first_food_journey
