Patient's question:
Hello doctor, my baby is already 6 months old. Can I start giving him some fruit now?Doctor's answer:
Hello, I'm glad to help you: Yes! 1) Gradually accustom the baby to it. At the beginning, you should first get the child accustomed to the taste of broth, juice, etc., to pique his interest. You can dilute the soup adults drink 2-3 times, cool it to a temperature similar to body temperature, and feed it to the child before breastfeeding. Juice can be fed directly with water added, or mixed with to drink. (2) Gradually increase the amount and variety of complementary foods for the baby. When adding a new complementary food, it should be done step by step, starting with a small amount and gradually increasing the quantity. Hasty actions can easily lead to failure. At 4 months of age, add scrambled egg yolk, starting with 1/4. After a week, if the appetite and digestion are normal, increase it to 1/2, and gradually increase it to one whole yolk.
