Question

When is the best time to wean a baby?

Answer

As children grow, the variety of nutrients provided by breast milk no longer fully meets the needs of their growth and development. Therefore, it is generally recommended to consider weaning around the 9 to 12-month mark. However, in areas where dairy products or substitutes are scarce, the timing of weaning may need to be appropriately delayed, extending to around 18 months of age.
