Can a 7-month-old baby eat fish?

Patient's question:

No.

Doctor's answer:

When selecting fish, pay attention to the following: the flesh should be elastic, the gills should be light red or bright red, the eyes should be slightly convex with clear black and white pupils, the appearance should be intact, the scales should not fall off, and there should be no fishy or foul smell. For mothers who worry about fish bones getting stuck in their babies' throats, they can choose tilapia, silverfish, snowfish, blackfish, catfish, yellow croaker, flounder, and horseface fish, as these fish have almost no small bones. When eating hairtail, remove the small bones on both sides first, leaving only the large bones connected to the spine, which are also easy to remove. When eating perch, crucian carp, silver carp, bighead carp, and Wuchang fish, you can let your baby eat the belly meat, which has no small bones and can be fed with peace of mind.
