Generally, your baby will be ready to try out more substantial meals and start adjusting to having up to 4 meals a day at around 7 months. She will also be able to wait between meals.

What foods can your baby eat?

Introducing infant cereals with small bits of vegetables or fruits.
You can now introduce cereals into your baby’s diet from the age of 6 months (refer to your doctor for advice). Thanks to the complex carbohydrates they contain, cereals are a good source of energy for your baby. They provide the fuel she needs during the day. They also supply her with vitamins, minerals and iron that she needs for proper growth and development.

Foods in Stage 2

New fruits and vegetables
At Stage 1, your baby will have tasted several types of fruits and vegetables. When she enters Stage 2, your baby will sample new tastes and discover the thicker consistency of purées.
Continue to give your baby fruits and vegetables.

New fruits and vegetables:

 Cooked vegetables: onion, broccoli, etc.
 Fruits: strawberry, blackcurrant, orange, papaya, mango, tomato, etc.
 Don’t forget vegetable oil (corn, palm, rapeseed (canola), sunflower, etc.) to provide essential fatty acids for your baby’s well-balanced diet.
