How many months should babies fed with formula milk start to eat complementary foods?

Many babies need to pay attention to diet during their infancy to avoid problems with diet that affect the baby's physical health. In particular, formula-fed babies need to pay attention to adding complementary foods. So, at how many months should formula-fed babies add complementary foods? Let me introduce this issue to you below.

It is appropriate to add complementary foods to babies after 4 months as a preliminary preparation for weaning. The first food added should be rice flour. Cereal foods can provide children with B vitamins, carbohydrates and calories. After adding rice flour for one week, you can add pureed egg yolks to feed your child. Do not feed egg white to babies too early as it can easily cause allergies in babies. After adding cereal foods for one or two weeks, you can let your baby eat some fruit puree in the morning, such as apple puree, pear puree, etc. After a week, you can feed your baby some vegetable puree at lunch.

Vegetables and fruits are rich in vitamin C, carotene and minerals. Fruits that can be added include apples, pears, apricots, bananas, peaches and plums. Among many vegetables, carrots, potatoes, pumpkins and other melons are easy to digest and less likely to cause allergic reactions in babies. Mangoes and lemons are fruits that can easily cause allergic reactions and should not be eaten by infants before one year old.

The above is my opinion on this issue. Babies who drink milk powder need to pay attention to adding corresponding complementary foods in time. This can ensure the baby's safety and health, and can well ensure the baby's development. In particular, timely examinations are needed to see what nutrients the baby needs.
