Patient's question:
The child has been crying non-stop recently and isn't eating much. What is the recommended order and method for introducing complementary foods to babies?Doctor's answer:
AnswerGenerally, complementary foods are introduced between four to six months after birth. Following the principle of starting with small amounts and gradually increasing, and introducing one new food at a time, you can begin with rice porridge. Mix it into a smooth consistency and start with just a few spoonfuls at first. Once the child is accustomed to it, gradually increase the amount. After the child adapts to the rice porridge, you can then introduce various fruit and vegetable purees.
