In addition to increasing the protein for the baby, it is also necessary to add some fruit puree, that is, mash various fruits into puree and feed them to the baby, such as some apple puree, peach puree, strawberry puree, etc. You can also make some vegetable puree, or mix fruit puree and vegetable puree together to feed the baby.

Babies can eat prune puree. The appearance of prune puree is also convenient for babies to eat. It is a recognized fact that prunes are rich in nutritional value, and both children and adults can eat prunes directly. However, it is impossible for babies who have not yet grown teeth to eat prunes directly, and the baby's gastrointestinal function is not yet perfect, making it difficult for them to digest. Therefore, it is a good choice to make prunes into prune puree for babies to eat. In addition, babies can supplement a variety of nutrients by eating prune puree. Moreover, when the seasons change, many babies will suffer from constipation. Eating prune puree can be used to relieve and prevent constipation.

You can start adding prune puree to the baby as a complementary food when the baby is five or six months old. But you should add less at the beginning, and you can add more if the baby doesn’t have diarrhea. In addition, don't feed too much each time, especially for the first time. It is best for babies to eat fresh seasonal fruit puree, which is more nutritious and healthier. Mothers can make it themselves at home.
