NESTLE® BABY CEREAL – NOW WITH NATURAL CULTURES™ BIFIDUS BL (B. LACTIS)
It's a whole new world for baby. And you too.
He's sitting up. Interested in everything you eat. And trying to grab any food he can. What does it all mean? Well, your little one may now be ready for his (and your) next big adventure: the introduction of solid foods and the start of happy mealtimes! What could be more incredible? It's an amazing first to celebrate - for you, baby and the whole family! Building a positive relationship with food is the first step to a growing, happy baby, developing lifelong healthy eating habits. But, how do you know when he's ready? Well, Canadian guidelines recommend waiting until your baby is 6 months of age1 and can hold his head steady in an upright position before you introduce solid foods. Remember though, every baby is different and some may be ready before others - so trust your instincts. After all, you know your baby better than anyone.
The start of happy mealtimes!
It all starts with a spoon. Your baby's introduction to a whole new world of solid food adventure! Introducing your baby to Nestlé Baby Cereals will help your little one experience taste, texture, and nutrition in a whole new way - building a positive relationship with food for a lifetime of healthy eating.
