I started to give yoghurt to my son when he was about 7 months old. I give it to him straight from the fridge.
Yoghurt is a concentrated milk product and a good choice for babies over six months. It provides one-and-a-half times as much calcium as the same amount of milk.
The best yoghurt to choose is full-fat plain yoghurt – you can add chopped or pureed fruit for flavour and sweetness. Special baby yoghurt is similar to regular fruit yoghurt, except it isn’t as lumpy. However, as baby grows older, managing lumpy foods is an important part of development.
