Start at 6 months: It is ideal for infants to be only breastfed until 6 months, with the addition of solid food to breastfeeding at ~ 6 months of age. Veggies and fruits do not need to be first foods. You can start with meat, legumes such as beans/peas, cereals, or whatever else you prefer. High iron solids are recommended as early foods for breastfed babies, which means that meat is considered an early food.
