Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
It must be four months later, and the food must be in a mud-like consistency. Do not use solid items to prevent choking the baby. You can start by feeding him rice cereal or banana puree. Feed only one type at a time. Feed him for a week and observe his reaction. Some babies may be allergic to certain foods. If he shows no allergic reactions within a week, you can add another food type after a week and observe his reaction again. Babies generally prefer sweeter foods, but avoid adding sugar or salt to anything you feed him within the first year, as this can burden his kidneys. You can feed him some fruits because the slight sweetness may make him enjoy them, but remember to remove the fruit peels. The peels may stick to his throat and be difficult for him to swallow.
