Question
I want to add rice porridge to her diet, but I’m not sure how to introduce it at the beginning?
Answer
Generally, babies start introducing complementary foods around four to six months. Since your baby is already over two years old, you can begin introducing common fruits, vegetables, fish and shrimp, and eggs and milk. To avoid malnutrition, it’s important to introduce complementary foods on time and gradually increase the quantity and thickness, moving from single ingredients to a variety of ingredients, adding them slowly. At the same time, be mindful not to continue feeding with a bottle, as this can also affect the child’s oral development.
