After birth, Baobao needs to be breastfed. As the baby grows older, they will eat more and more. In order to meet the body's nutritional needs, it is necessary to supplement complementary foods early, which can help the baby develop healthier. The timing of adding complementary foods to babies varies. So, when is the latest time for babies to add complementary foods?
The earliest babies can add complementary foods is at six months old, and the latest is at eight months old. If complementary foods are added to the baby too early, the baby's digestive system will not be able to digest them and there will be gastrointestinal pressure. If the baby eats too late, milk cannot meet their needs. Therefore, in order for the baby to grow up healthily, it is necessary to supplement it after six months so that the baby can meet their needs.
The baby needs to be careful when eating complementary food. After six months, the baby needs to eat Rice noodles first, and a small amount of it is added many times. When starting to eat complementary food, it is not allowed to eat salt, nor put salt. The complementary food must be gradual, so that the baby's intestines and stomach can adapt. Parents can feed their babies in small quantities multiple times, but it is still necessary to mainly breastfeed.
After one year old, babies can increase their intake of complementary foods because they need to be weaned. Eating more complementary foods can prepare for weaning. Parents can also drink milk powder, milk, yogurt, and some vegetable Congee to help the baby supplement nutrition.
