Patient's question:
Whatshould a 5-month-old baby be added, and do I need to buy a7-piecegrinderset to make it?Doctor's answer:
The diet of babies aged 4 to 6 months still primarily consists of breast milk or formula. The introduction of complementary foods is mainly for the purpose of trying to eat. The amount added starts with 1 to 2 spoons and is gradually increased. Mainly liquid and mashed foods are provided. Rice porridge (which can be mixed with breast milk, formula, or apple juice) is offered first, followed by vegetable puree. Then fruit juice or puree (juice is first diluted with water before being consumed in its original form), and finally fruit puree. Scrambled egg yolk, rice porridge, vegetable juice, rice water, and fruit juice can all be given to the baby. Only one new complementary food is added at a time, starting with small amounts and gradually increasing. Once the baby's digestive system adapts, you can gradually introduce foods such as rice porridge, scrambled egg yolk, vegetable puree, juice, and pork liver puree.
