Introduce Avocado to a Baby - Wait until your baby is 4 to 6 months old before introducing avocado. As soon as your pediatrician approves of starting solid foods, you can introduce avocado.
Look for an avocado that is dark green and has a bumpy texture. The avocado should be firm, but should not be so hard that you cannot push into it. The inside should be green and turn yellow as it gets closer to the pit.
