Examine the test results carefully: The previous treatment and its effectiveness: What kind of complementary food should be provided for a five-month-old baby? My baby gets half an egg yolk every day and a bowl of rice porridge for a meal. Can I feed them rice porridge and meat snacks? I want to give my baby some fruit puree, but it's getting colder, and I don't know if it's okay?

Doctor's answer:

The baby should be provided with complementary foods such as: rice porridge, thin porridge, egg yolk, tofu, fish puree, animal blood, fruit puree, and vegetable puree. When introducing complementary foods, it should be done gradually according to the maturity of the infant's digestive system, starting with small amounts and increasing gradually to allow the baby to adapt. Rice porridge and fruit puree can be introduced first in small quantities, then gradually increased. Considering it's winter, fruit puree should be minimized. If your child shows discomfort after consuming a very small amount of fruit puree again, you can stop giving it. Meat puffs are not yet ready to be fed to the child; they should be introduced when the child is 7-9 months old. When the infant is sick, stop increasing complementary foods. It is not advisable to wean the child in winter; it is best to wait until the weather warms up, preferably in spring.
