What can an 8-month-old baby eat?

Patient's question:

What can a 4-month-old baby eat? Chestnuts, sesame paste, soy milk, tofu, bread, or crackers. Alternatively, you can grind soybeans and feed them directly. Can they eat green beans, pork ribs, winter melon, rice bananas, bananas, and large bananas? Besides, the baby who is now 9 months old has never crawled yet. Is this normal? When he sits, he always leans on your feet and slowly uses the front part of his feet to push himself up. If you place toys in front of him, he uses the front part of his feet to push himself forward to grab them. Hello, is he currently learning to stand?

Doctor's answer:

The baby has not yet learned to crawl and has not met the standard. This is more common in babies who spend less time moving on the ground, such as those who are held a lot or use a walker. If the child is really using a walker, then it should not be used anymore. When the child is lying on their stomach, the parent can place their legs under the child's abdomen, lowering the child's belly naturally, and the child will naturally use their hands and knees to support themselves. Then, use something the child dislikes to encourage them to crawl forward, and they will gradually learn to crawl. The things you mentioned can all be given to the child. For soy products, it is necessary to press them down a few times to feed them to prevent indigestion.
