The neighbor's daughter, who gave birth to a baby girl in March this year, recently returned home after sitting in a confinement center for 28 days, and the baby's mother did not have much milk after returning home, and was mainly fed with infant formula.
Invasion and deletion
In the confinement center, the confinement sister-in-law said to the neighbor's daughter that the baby can only add complementary food at 4~6 months, and adding complementary food for 1~3 months may damage the child's stomach.
However, the child has recently suffered from cold stomach discomfort, and when she sees a Chinese doctor, it is recommended to use umbilical stickers to the umbilicus, and at the same time tell her that she can add some juice water and green vegetable water.
The baby's mother doesn't know who to listen to. To add or not to add, you can't toss a coin to decide! I would like to consult with me.
By viewing the "Pediatrics of Traditional Chinese Medicine" National Higher Chinese Medicine College Planning Textbook (9th Edition): It is clearly stated that babies aged 1~3 months can add fresh fruit juice, vegetable water, and cod liver oil preparations.
However, the planning textbook of the National Higher Medical Textbook Research Association of "Pediatrics" (the 11th Five-Year Plan textbook of the Ministry of Health): It is clearly listed that 4~6 months (weight 6.5~7kg) is added to supplement food.
Is this the difference between Chinese and Western medicine, in the end, can 1~3 months babies be fed some complementary food, or can not be fed some complementary food? I hope experienced mothers will comment and give some advice.
