For many parents, choosing complementary foods for their babies is a very headache. Due to the age of the baby, the selection of complementary foods should be more cautious. The texture of fish meat is soft and smooth, and it also contains rich nutrients. It is one of the complementary foods that many parents choose. So how much does a baby eat when they first eat fish?
How much fish does a baby eat for the first time
For the first time feeding fish to a baby, usually one or two spoonfuls are enough. Because the baby's stomach is still relatively small, eating too much is not good. Secondly, when adding new complementary foods to babies, the principle of adding small amounts should be followed to avoid allergies to the complementary foods.
When will the baby eat cod liver oil
Everyone knows that cod liver oil has great benefits for the growth and development of babies, but it cannot be consumed for a long time. Generally speaking, if a baby's height and weight development are normal around the age of two, they do not need to eat cod liver oil. Because after the baby reaches two years old, there are more and more foods they can eat. At this point, the intake of nutrients from food also begins to increase. And the daily exposure to sunlight is also increasing, so there is no longer a need to eat cod liver oil.
In general, whether adding complementary foods or supplements to babies, certain principles should be followed. Do not add too many complementary foods to your baby at once, and add a new complementary food each time.
