Mum 1
Oh ... about ...
[Baby grizzling sounds]
Mum 1
... one month.
[Baby grizzling sounds]
Plunket clinical advisor
And what made you know he was ready to start solids?
Mum 1
Oh he's open his mouth and just try to feed ... look at when I ... we eating.
Plunket clinical advisor
When you were eating ... mmm ... mmm. And I noticed him before, he was sort of lunging forward for the food when you offered him the spoon.
Mum 1
Yeah, yeah.
Plunket clinical advisor
So what are you giving him today?
Mum 1
He's given to puree apple.

Start with spoon-fed pureed foods when your baby's ready at around six months. Move onto mashed and chopped foods over the next few months.

Mum 1

Offer finger foods from 7-8 months when your baby's able to pick them up, bring them to their mouth and chew them. Add textures, varieties, flavours and quantities of food as your baby grows. By the time your baby's 12 months old, they're ready to eat small amounts of many of the same foods as the family.
[Music]
Dad
Yeah.
Tamariki Ora nurse
That's great. And he's getting involved with his food, isn't he?
Dad
Yeah. The thing is he was picking things up and putting them in his mouth long before he was ever given solids to eat so ...
Tamariki Ora nurse
Right, that's good.
Dad
It's kind of like just a continuation of what he'd already been doing.
[Music]
Voice
Always prepare, or buy, baby food with no added fat, salt, sugar, honey or other sweeteners.
[Baby eating noises]

Wait until your baby's at least 12 months old before giving them honey. It can make young babies sick.
Mum 2
Mmm, yum, yum
Mum 3
I love cooking apples.
Mum 2
Yeah ... baby loves them too eh?
Mum 3 Yes.
[Music]
Mum 3
Fabulous.
Mum 2
Oh, yummy.
Mum 3
I don't add any sugar in it, um, I find that fruit and vegetables already have enough natural sugar in them, and I'm really mindful that I don't want to set her up for ...
[Baby grizzling noises]
Mum 3
... future of ...
[Baby grizzling noises]
Mum 3
... unnecessary sugar intake and whatnot.
Mum 2
Yeah, yeah.
Mum 3
... so I just want to keep it as natural as ...
Voice
Remember to give your baby iron-rich foods such as iron-fortified baby cereal and/or meat.
[Sound of blender stick]
Mum 4
Looks a bit dry.
[Sound of blender stick]
[Laughter]
Mum 4
I save a bit of the water from the vegetables that we've used to cook the vegetables in just to help mash it up a bit better.
[Music]
Mum 2
Yeah that looks good.

적합한 이유식 (한 글, Korean)
- 이유식을 할 시기(생후 약 6개월)가 되면 갈아 만든 유동식을 숟가락으로 떠먹이는 것으로 시작합니다.
- 이후 몇 개월 동안 으깨거나 잘게 썬 음식으로 전환합니다.
- 아기가 손으로 음식을 집어 입에 넣고 씹을 수 있게 되는 생후 7~8 개월째부터는 손으로 집어먹는 음식을 줍니다.
아기가 자람에 따라 그에 맞게 음식의 질감과 종류, 향미, 양을 늘여갑니다. 아기가 12개월이 될 무렵에는 가족이 먹는 것과 같은 여러 음식을 조금씩 먹을 수 있게 됩니다.
유아용 철분 강화 시리얼이나 육류 같이 철분이 풍부한 음식을 먹이는 것을 잊지 마십시오.
항상 아기 음식에 기름기나 소금, 설탕, 꿀, 기타 감미료를 첨가하지 않고 조리하고, 또 이런 성분이 들어 있지 않은 제품을 구입하십시오. 생후 12개월이 되기 전에는 꿀을 먹이지 않도록 합니다. 아기가 아플 수 있습니다.
