Question

Can a nine-month-old baby start weaning?

Answer

Doctors recommend that around one year old is the best time for weaning. At this stage, the breast milk no longer holds much nutritional value, and solid foods such as congee and fruit purees should be gradually introduced to meet the baby’s nutritional needs. At the same time, for the digestion issues of a nine-month-old baby, medications like Montmorillonite Powder, Golden Bifidus, and Wenspi Yang’er Granules should be administered, along with abdominal massage and heat compresses to relieve discomfort.
