Everything you need to start solids, in one printable bundle. This 14-page PDF gives you a month-by-month first foods guide, the 9 top allergens in a conscious order of introduction, step-by-step tips for introducing a new food, a tracker for new foods and reactions, a checklist of 120+ first foods, a low and high mercury fish guide, and a dairy ladder.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
First Foods + Allergen Timeline Guide (7 pages). Foods from 4 to 24 months, month by month, plus the nine most common allergens with a conscious order for introducing them.
Introducing a New Food or Common Allergen (1 page). Simple steps for when to offer a new food, how much to start with, and how long to watch your baby afterward.
Baby's First Foods Tracker. Two matching tables on one page. Log the date first given, the food, any possible reaction, how many times it has been offered, and notes.
Foods Before 1 Checklist. 120+ foods sorted into fats, veggies, fruits, meats and proteins, dairy, grains, pseudograins, herbs and spices, and fermented foods, each with a checkbox and short prep notes.
Low and High Mercury Fish Guide. Which fish to offer, which to avoid, and an easy SMASH acronym for low-mercury, high-omega-3 fish.
Dairy Ladder (2 pages). A gentle order for introducing dairy, from lower-lactose forms to higher.
HOW TO USE
Print the pages you want at home or at a print shop. Print the tracker as many times as you need.
Use the timeline as a guide, not a strict schedule. Tune in to your baby.
Offer new foods one at a time and write down each food, how many times you have offered it, and anything you notice.
Tick off the checklist as your baby tries new foods.
FILE FORMAT AND SIZE
14-page PDF, US Letter (8.5 x 11 in). The tracker page is landscape.
Prints on A4 using "fit to page."
