The main difference between the complementary feeding scheme for babies who are artificially fed is an earlier beginning of acquaintance with food, since the digestive tract of an artificial baby earlier got acquainted with products that are different from mother's milk (milk formulas). And therefore he is more prepared to digest non-dairy products (vegetable purees and cereals). The table in this article is also suitable for mothers who do not have enough breast milk, and there is no opportunity to purchase formula.
It is also important not to forget that the increase in the amount of any complementary foods should be gradual and carried out carefully. It is necessary to observe all the reactions of the child in order to identify signs of intolerance to the product in time.
If a child reacts to any food with a change in stool, the appearance of a rash or other symptoms, it should be canceled for several weeks, and then try to introduce it into the infant's diet again. In addition, it is not recommended to give your child several new foods on the same day, in order to know exactly what food has a reaction.
