Question

Can babies drink milk after eating solid foods?

Answer

A one-year-old baby can drink milk after eating solid foods. Starting from 6 months old, you can gradually introduce semi-solid foods such as fruit puree, egg yolk puree, and fish puree. By 7 to 9 months old, they can transition to softer solid foods like mashed vegetables with rice. However, babies may encounter issues such as bloating, stomachache, and indigestion due to weakened spleen and stomach. In such cases, traditional Chinese medicine like Xiangsha Liujun Wan can be used for opsonize, and it is recommended to provide a light diet and avoid spicy foods.
