From Milk to Meals: Essential Tips for Complementary Feeding

Pace Hospitals

Listen to

Complementary feeding indicates the introduction of solid foods alongside breast milk or formula for infants, typically starting at 6 months of age. While breast milk or formula gives essential nutrients, babies need additional foods as they grow to meet their energy and nutritional requirements. Complementary foods should be nutritious, safe, and age-appropriate to encourage healthy growth and development and comprise a variety of grains, proteins, fruits, and vegetables. Babies might start with mashed or pureed foods and work up to more textured options. 


Respondent feeding is crucial for the baby's demands and indications during mealtime. In this episode of complementary feeding will cover the best time to begin, which foods to introduce initially, and helpful advice for dealing with everyday issues like food allergies and fussy eating.



Join the PACE Hospitals Podcast with Dr. Navya Sri Gali, Consultant Pediatrician at PACE Hospitals, Hitech City, Hyderabad, India, as she shares valuable insights on when to begin complementary feeding, which foods to introduce first and how to prevent challenges like food allergies and picky eating.
