Question
What complementary foods can the baby eat? What should be done if the breast milk is not enough?
Answer
The types of complementary foods a baby can try vary by age. For babies between 1 and 3 months old, orange, tomato, orange, and watermelon juices can be made. These juices can be consumed directly, or for weaker babies, they can be diluted before drinking. Since a baby’s stomach capacity is small, they cannot eat too much at one time. Generally, babies from 6 months to 1 year old can only eat 100 to 200 milliliters of food per meal. It is important to prepare meals that are small in portion but rich in nutrition for the baby.
