    During the first 4-6 months, infants should be breastfed or fed infant formula. Between 4-6 months, single ingredient foods like rice cereal or pureed fruits can be introduced. From 7-8 months, babies can eat single ingredient and combination strained foods, and from 9-12 months, small chunks can be introduced for babies to start chewing, such as fruits, vegetables, and meat. After 12 months, babies can eat regular "table" food with the family and be introduced to new textures like chopped or cooked foods.
