Question
Can an 8-month-old baby eat pumpkin and millet congee?
Answer
Hello, yes, they can. Generally speaking, babies should start introducing solid foods such as vegetable purees, apple puree, and banana puree in addition to breast milk or formula milk from around four months old. An 8-month-old baby can already try a variety of foods, including pumpkin and millet congee. However, be mindful of any allergies your baby may have. When introducing a new food for the first time, it’s best to start with a small amount and observe for any allergic reactions. Additionally, the texture of the congee should be appropriate for easy swallowing by the baby.
