Question
My child is two months old, and I’m not sure when I can start feeding things other than breast milk, and what types of food are best to introduce? How should I feed them? Currently, my child’s stool often contains milk residue, does this indicate poor digestion? What medication should I give them?
Answer
Hello, typically, children can start trying to feed on a quarter of an egg yolk at around four and a half months old, mixed with water. Milk residue in the stool may be due to breast milk and usually improves after introducing other foods. If you are concerned about digestion issues, it is advisable to consult a doctor and use appropriate medication. Remember that using the correct feeding methods throughout the child’s growth process can help them grow healthily.
