Patient's question:
I don't know if he has this condition, and his mental state isn't good either. May I ask if a ten-month-old child can drink milk?Doctor's answer:
Children under one year old should not drink milk. As long as the diet is balanced, there is no need for special supplementation.Infant and Toddler Feeding Methods
Sucking is innate, while chewing needs to be learned and cultivated by parents. Some children are still unable to eat at the age of two, which is actually because they cannot chew. There are two reasons for this:
1. Inappropriate complementary feeding, where parents are accustomed to feeding children mashed foods, eliminating the need for chewing. The child can simply swallow the food whole.
2. Parents give the child too much food at once while feeding.
