Starting solids and baby led weaning: when is my baby ready to start solids?

Imaris • Travel Nurse 👩🏻‍⚕️ & 1st time momma 🤱🏻💕

Our pediatrician gave us recommendations for starting certain solids and possibly starting baby led weaning with our infant before our six month appointment.

She said to look for signs of readiness that may occur between 5.5 & 6 months but all I’ve seen him do is reach for food, but he still cannot sit unsupported without his head bobbing about. He can sit for short periods of about a minute or two leaning into the floor on his hands like in this photo with our dog. He’s is currently 23 weeks old.

How did this go for you and any high chair recommendations are highly appreciated!!
