Sai Prasanthi R LMom of a 11 yr 6 m old boy3 years agoA. Hello dear parent! Not advisable before one year completion as it reduces food assimilation if there is any change in the taste. Consult your doctor for further advice. Give your baby 3 meals and water along with daily breastfeeding. Regularly massage your baby with Babyhug cold pressed coconut oil.
