Patient's question:
The child has been crying non-stop recently and isn't eating much. What kind of complementary foods should a four-month-old baby eat?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to gradually add vegetable and fruit juices starting from the third month. From the fourth month, you can start adding porridge, mashed noodles, and other similar foods. In general, follow the principle of gradual progression: start with small amounts, then increase, go from thin to thick, and introduce one type at a time before moving to multiple types. Progress from simple to complex. There is no fixed pattern. If diarrhea occurs, pause or reduce the addition of new foods. Once symptoms improve, gradually reintroduce foods in a step-by-step manner.
