Optimal infant nutrition from 7 to 9 months

At the age of 7-9 months, the child should receive a variety of foods every day. It is important to get foods rich in iron and to avoid some foods until the end of the first year.

Healthy baby food

One of the main prerequisites for good health is a varied diet. A child is considered to eat well if he/she eats foods from all five groups every day (Milk and dairy products / Fruits / Vegetables / Cereals / Meat, fish, eggs). It is not uncommon for a child to persistently refuse some of the offered foods; it is important to know that each food can be replaced by some other from the same group.

The feeding and sleeping rhythm during the first week of life

During the first week of life, your newborn spends the most time sleeping, waking up every few hours for feeding. Newborn babies can’t sleep through the night; their stomach is small and they need frequent meals.
