7/26/2018 0 Comments Lets talk about baby foodYou may be wondering on what food to give your baby. Well, worry no more! Gastonia, NC kids' doctors will give you some advices. First, be observant when it comes to the reaction of your baby with food. If you are trying to identify whether your baby is ready or not, notice if he or she shoves out everything with his or her tounge. At this point, it is best to give the oral muscle a few more weeks or a few months to develop properly. Second, if you notice that your baby watch other people eat then most probably they are ready to consume non-liquid food. However, as required by doctors, keep in mind that babies are ready to eat non liquid foods once they reach four to six months and they weight twice as much as they were born. When it comes to cow's milk, it is also important to know that as your baby grows, he or she still needs the nutrients from breast milk or formula milk. Although you can get them started on cow's milk, it is still best to do it slowly. Another advice is that when it comes to milk, make sure that your baby consumes whole milk since your baby's brain is still developing and whole milk has lipids. When it comes to juices, don't serve it to them until six months and when you do, make sure there are no added sugar and has more nutrients that just Vitamin C.
