Patient's question:
Hello, could you please ask the doctor, for a 6-month-old boy, should we start adding complementary foods and prepare for weaning? What do we need?Doctor's answer:
First, you need to sleep separately from the baby and adapt to the baby using a gradual approach, but don't make it too long—generally about a week. Then, make sure no milk spills out and avoid milk smell on the clothes so the baby can always smell the taste of breast milk. Finally, choose a formula that is suitable for the baby to replace breast milk, the closer to breast milk the better. Give it a try. It should be very effective. But you must not be soft-hearted and let the baby cry. You can guarantee it will be effective within a week. It's no harm to try.
