Baby Food Recipes
Nourish bub with healthy baby food recipes for reusable pouches
Starting solids can feel daunting with so much conflicting advice. My biggest tip: if your baby gets constipated, just slow down. Go gently. With over 30 years of digestive health experience, I’m passionate about making this stage easier for families.

Stage 1 is when your baby first tries solids. In Australia, the guideline is 6 months. Introduce one food at a time, starting with small amounts, and leave 2–3 days between new foods. Offer new foods mid-morning so you can watch for reactions, and feed milk half an hour beforehand so bub isn’t frustrated.
Stage 2: Baby Food Recipes (8–10 months)
Stage 2 includes more acidic foods, harder-to-digest combos, and slightly more complex blends. Puree until smooth, and add liquids like bone broth, stock, or breastmilk to adjust texture.
Stage 3: Baby Food Recipes (10–12 months)
Stage 3 can include grains, meats, and mild spices. At this point, textures can get thicker or chunkier. Use purees as sauces on pasta or finger foods, and start experimenting with smoothies and yoghurts in reusable pouches.
