There are important details to be aware of when starting supplementary foods. Care must be taken that the food to be tried for the first time is given at baby opening and at lunch time. Additional nutrients should be started one by one and small amount, should be increased according to the baby's intake. It should not be forgotten to check for diarrhea, rash, vomiting after each new food.
Cow's milk can cause secret bleeding in the intestine. In addition to this, iron content should not be given before 1 year of age because it is not enough and it may cause allergies with the foreign proteins it contains. However, since the amount in the food will not meet the need for salt before 1 year of age. It should be known that ready-made foods are not available for infants.
The baby should not be forced into a food that he does not want, and the food should be tried again after a certain interval. Additional food should be started with single foods such as yoghurt, fruit juice and then transferred to mixtures. Care must be taken that all food is served with a spoon. Never use bottles in this process. Always natural and fresh foods should be preferred. Nutrition should not be brought in haste. Be patient!
