If my baby is eating solids fruits and veggies since he's 4 months old, can I start experimenting with chicken meat veal and salmon? He's 5.5 months now.

Avoiding fish till after the age of one year is recommended, because of its association with allergies. As for meat or chicken, you may start by mashing the vegetables in chicken or red meat boil (bouillon or stock, not the ready made cube stocks in the market). Later on, add cereals to the mixture. Then afterwards introduce thin hairs of very soft chicken or meat. You can start to increase the size of the pieces as your baby grows teeth and can then chew.
