Children around one year old may be in the weaning period. What parents need to do at this time is to think about what food to feed the baby after weaning. In addition to the daily three meals, you should also give your baby some fruits to ensure a more comprehensive nutrition. Mango is a common fruit that tastes very good. So can a one-year-old child eat mango?

Yes, you can feed your baby a small amount of mango after he is one year old. You need to observe the baby's reaction first, and then eat more when the baby gradually adapts and has no indigestion, allergies, etc. But it is best to control it within 50 grams a day and not eat too much, so as not to affect the intake of other foods.
