As mothers, we all know that giving babies a moderate amount of fruits can supplement various nutrients, such as vitamins and minerals, and help promote their growth and development. However, mothers should know that babies cannot eat fruits immediately, they need to grow to a certain age before they can eat them, and not all fruits can be eaten. Some mothers have asked, can half year old babies eat durian?
Generally speaking, after six months of age, infants can add complementary foods before eating some fruits in moderation. At this time, infants only need to juice the fruits before eating them. As the baby continues to grow, they can eat fruit puree. After the baby develops teeth, solid fruit pieces can be given to the baby. Therefore, there should be a gradual process for infants to eat fruits. However, for durian fruit, it is not recommended for infants under one year old to eat it.
The reason why it is said that half year old babies cannot eat durian is because the gastrointestinal function of infants under one year old is not yet fully developed, and durian fruit pulp contains a large amount of protein and sugar. If given to infants, it is not conducive to digestion and is prone to problems such as indigestion and bloating. In addition, durian is rich in dietary fiber, which can easily absorb water and expand in the intestines after eating. If infants consume too much, it can block the intestines and cause constipation.
After the baby is able to eat fruits, the mother can give the baby some apples. Apples are gentle in nature and are a good choice for babies with weak gastrointestinal function. In addition, apples are nutritious and have a good effect on the baby's growth and development. About half of each apple is enough for the baby. In addition, the mother can also give the baby some bananas, cantaloupe, papaya, pears, oranges, and so on.
