Patient's question:

3 months have passed, can I mix some juice when making formula? Do I need to go to the hospital for treatment? How long will it take to get better? Please help me!

Doctor's answer:

Milk is for drinking milk, juice is for drinking juice. I suggest that feeding milk and juice separately to your baby is different. My baby is around 4 months old and needs to start solid food. You can try feeding your baby a small amount of thin rice porridge. At the beginning, it's essential to start with a small amount and don't force your baby to eat. Be patient. Gradually increase from 2 spoons a day to 2 spoons a day, twice a day, and then let your baby adjust for a while before gradually increasing. Rice porridge can be mixed with breast milk, so the baby won't refuse it. Or you can make pumpkin water, cucumber water, corn juice, tomato juice, and make a small pot (vegetable water) every day to mix with formula, rice porridge, or give the baby a bottle of water. The heat and nutrition are very effective. Various vegetable waters need to be chopped, boiled, and filtered. Egg yolk soup, vegetable puree, meat puree, fish puree, etc.
