Introducing Solids: A Guide for New Parents

Starting solids is an exciting milestone in your baby’s development—and a little nerve-wracking too! When, what, and how to introduce food are questions every new parent faces. The good news? With the right tools and a relaxed approach, you can turn this transition into a fun, stress-free experience for both you and your little one.
At Mumma, we’ve created baby feeding essentials designed to support your baby’s first bites with comfort, safety, and a whole lot of style.
When Should You Start Solids?
Most babies are ready to begin solid foods around 6 months of age, when they can sit up with support, show interest in food, and have lost the tongue-thrust reflex. Always check with your pediatrician first, but once your baby gives the green light, it’s time to explore!
What to Start With?
For first foods, go with soft, single-ingredient options like:
- Mashed avocado
- Steamed and pureed sweet potatoes
- Mashed bananas
- Iron-fortified baby cereal
- Pureed carrots, peas, or apples
Start your little one’s solids journey with our Silicone Fresh Food Feeder — it’s a comforting way to ease into new tastes — then gently transition to our Mini Spoon and Fork, thoughtfully made for tiny mouths and tender gums. Their soft silicone tips make it easy for parents to offer food, while also encouraging self-feeding when baby is ready.
Mealtime Must-Haves:
Introducing solids can get messy—but that’s part of the fun! Our best-selling Silicone Bibs and Long Sleeve Coverall Shirt Weaning Bib are a game-changer. Waterproof, stain-resistant, and easy to clean, they catch every drop and come in adorable prints to match your baby’s personality.
Pair it with our Non-Slip Suction Bowls and Divided Plates, which stay in place (yes, really!) so mealtime is focused on food—not flying dishes. Made from 100% food-grade silicone, they're microwave- and dishwasher-safe for effortless cleanup.

Let Baby Lead the Way:
Whether you choose traditional purees or baby-led weaning, the key is to follow your baby’s cues. Let them explore textures, tastes, and even make a mess. It’s all part of learning. Our Snack Cups with Soft Spill-Proof Lids are great for on-the-go nibbles when your baby starts grasping finger foods like puffs or fruit slices.
Pro tip: Keep the camera ready for those hilarious first-taste reactions!
Keep It Positive and Low-Pressure
Not every bite will be a win—and that’s okay. Offer a variety of flavors, introduce one new food at a time, and celebrate the small victories. At Mumma, we believe mealtime should feel joyful, not stressful. That’s why all our feeding tools are made with safety-tested, BPA-free materials that are as practical as they are adorable.
