Patient's question:
Many people say that breast milk after 6 months lacks nutrition, and children can just eat breast milk for 6 months and then wean. Is that right? I don't believe it. Moms, what do you think? At what age is it best to wean a child?Doctor's answer:
Hello, I'm glad to help you: At six months, the nutrition from breast milk is no longer sufficient to meet the baby's growth needs. Generally, complementary foods should be introduced around three months. A six-month-old baby requires an increase in various nutrients and can eat foods like mashed noodles, lean meat porridge, fish porridge, and egg cakes. It's important to ensure these foods are easy to digest. Wishing you good health. I hope my response is helpful to you.
