Question
An 11-month-old baby shows resistance to all types of formula milk after weaning. The parent, unaware of the situation at the time, gave the baby soy milk. Now knowing that excessive soy milk intake may be harmful, how should the parent respond?
Answer
Hello, the key to your situation lies in the baby’s aversion to formula milk. Currently, the baby is suitable for introducing complementary foods such as chicken cake, noodles, etc. If the baby refuses to drink formula milk, you can increase the intake of complementary foods. The consumption of soy milk is not a major concern. Please note to maintain hygiene and, if necessary, use a red mold ointment for treatment. Clean after each bowel movement and use a warm compress to relieve discomfort.
