Question

Should a 1.5-year-old baby still drink breast milk and formula?

Answer

Generally, by the time a baby is six months old, the nutrients in breast milk no longer fully meet their growth needs. As time goes on, the nutritional value of breast milk gradually diminishes. Therefore, it is generally recommended to start weaning the baby between ten to twelve months old. After weaning, the baby can obtain sufficient nutrition through three daily meals and can gradually reduce their reliance on formula.
