Introducing Food & Beverages
By about 8 months your baby will have the motor skills to grasp small objects and get them to her mouth. It's time for finger foods!
Some nutritious, seemingly safe finger foods are unsafe because they pose a choking danger. If your baby has only her front teeth, she's capable of biting off a chunk of an uncooked carrot. But she can't actually chew it up, which means she could choke on it. See foods to avoid the first year.
