Question
The child has been crying and not eating much lately. Can the baby eat mutton soup?
Answer
Introducing complementary foods should be age-appropriate. From 4 to 6 months, you can add thin rice, egg yolks, fruit purees, or a thin noodle soup with minced vegetables and a little edible oil. From 7 to 12 months, you can add soft noodles, egg custard, tofu, rice balls, various minced vegetables, fish meat, minced lean meat, etc. Start with grains and gradually transition to vegetables and fruits, fish and poultry eggs, and dairy products. You can also choose some baby-specific complementary food series products as a supplement.
