There were many snacks when I was a child. I believe that spicy noodles are a memory of every post-90s generation, and then there are wahaha ham sausage and the like. These are snacks for children of rich families. And then there is the little Mantou that Xionghai usually feeds, especially Wangzai. So can five month old babies eat Mantou?
Can a five month old baby eat small Mantou
A 5-month-old baby should be exclusively breastfed to meet their physical development needs, and complementary foods can only be added when the baby is 6 months old. Therefore, five month old babies cannot eat small Mantou.
After 6 months, the baby can add complementary food, such as fruit juice, vegetable juice, puree, porridge, etc., and small Mantou can also be eaten. When eating small Mantou, the best way is to use boiled water or soaked with milk before eating. Although it is said that the small Mantou will melt in the mouth, if the whole Mantou is given to the baby, because the baby's chewing ability is poor, it may make the small Mantou stick to the baby's mouth, and may become stuck. In addition, it should be noted that some small Mantou is sweet, and if given to the baby excessively, it will affect the normal development of teeth.
Baby's complementary food recipe
1. Fish soup
Ingredients: 20 grams (2 spoons) of fresh fish, 1/2 cup of water, 1 slice of ginger, 1 section of scallion, (200mg salt for babies over 6 months old).
Method: Put the fish chunks into a pot, add water, and boil the ginger slices; Cook over low heat for 10 minutes, then turn off the heat and add salt; Filter with a strainer.
2. Chicken Soup
Ingredients: 20 grams (2 spoons) of chicken, 1/2 cup of water, 1 slice of ginger, (200mg salt for babies over 6 months old).
Method: Cut the chicken into small pieces, put it in a pot, add water, and boil the ginger slices; Turn off the heat for 10 minutes and add salt; Remove chicken fat and filter.
In a word, 5 month old babies can't eat small Mantou, so no matter how good it is, if you give your baby too much supplements, it will be counterproductive. Try to eat some nutritious food as much as possible. Don't let children consume snacks, as they contain additives and preservatives.
