Question
When is it appropriate to wean a baby? The child currently has no diseases, but the stool is a bit hard, doesn’t like to eat eggs, and is slightly anemic. What kind of help can I get?
Answer
The hard stool is due to yin deficiency in the spleen and stomach, which affects digestion and leads to a dislike for eggs and anemia. It is recommended to wean the child at one year old. Currently, you can give the child porridge made from animal organs such as pork liver, which has a good effect on iron supplementation. At the same time, you can ask a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner to prescribe some stomach-nourishing soup to help nourish the stomach.
