POOJA KOTHARIExpecting Mom due in 1 month2 months agoA. It is not recommended to start semi-solid foods for a 4-month-old baby unless specifically advised by a pediatrician. The World Health Organization (WHO) and most pediatricians recommend exclusive breastfeeding or formula feeding for the first 6 months of life.
At 4 months, a baby’s digestive system is still developing, and introducing solids too early can increase the risk of food allergies, choking, and tummy issues. If your baby seems hungry more often, you can increase breast milk or formula feeds.
Start solids like rice cereal, mashed fruits, or pureed vegetables only after 6 months, unless your doctor suggests earlier introduction due to specific medical reasons.
