6 Months Baby Nutrition

Do not think about stopping breast milk just because your baby is six months old. You should see different foods as supplements to breast milk.

Breast milk should be the main meal for your baby, and other foods should be a snack.

You should be careful whether the first foods you give your baby are allergic or not. For this reason, we recommend that you provide a portion of food for three days. Suppose there is any reaction, not give it again by taking a note and consulting your doctor. You should apply the three-day rule when starting solid food.

If you ask what a 6-month-old baby can eat, he can easily consume pureed fruits and vegetables. Honey and cow’s milk are among the foods you should not give your baby during the first year. You can eat the fruits and vegetables that will not cause allergies by steaming and pureeing them with peace of mind.    

Eggplant is also among the foods you should not give to your baby in the first year, such as honey and milk.

We recommend that you stay away from salt and sugar during these periods when you create your baby’s taste. Remember, your baby will never want sugar and salty foods unless you give them a taste. Adding as much salt as your food will not flavour the food for him.

If you create your palate with healthy foods, you can lay the foundations for healthy eating.
