When should the baby start feeding on other foods?

At 6 months one can start giving the baby soft smashed foods. Porridge is good too for energy. The mistake mums make is to mix different types of flour. A good example is rice and beans flour. Rice takes a shorter time than beans to cook. So they end up feeding the baby uncooked foods. This is wrong and should not be encouraged!
A tip we can give you is to smile as you feed the baby and if possible, let the whole family have meals together so that the baby knows that feeding time is a fun time. Make it as responsive as possible.
