Question

What are the methods for relieving pediatric digestive diseases and the reasons for the lack of recent weight gain?

Answer

In the absence of any mother’s health issues, it is not recommended to wean the child. Breast milk has the highest nutritional value and should be fed at least until 6 months, with general recommendations for weaning between 8 months and 1 year to avoid weaning when the child is sick. From the third month, vegetables juice, fruit juice can be gradually introduced, and from the fourth month, rice porridge, egg yolks, thin congee, noodles, and other foods can be introduced gradually, following the principle of starting with less and thinning to thickening and from one type to multiple types. If nausea and vomiting occur, temporarily stop or reduce the introduction and gradually resume after improvement.
