What Should Be Considered When Starting Supplementary Food?
Give the food by crushing not only the juicy parts, but also the grain parts.
Take care to give the food with a spoon or a cup, not with a bottle.
Make sure your baby is in a sitting position while feeding.
Try a new food when your baby is hungry, do not force if he is not eating or pushing, try again later.
Despite the constipation problem in your baby during this period, be sure to give water and enough breast milk, especially in the summer months.
