POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy1 Year agoA. If your baby's milk intake has decreased after starting fruit purees, consider the following steps:
1. **Balance Puree and Milk**: Ensure that fruit purees are not replacing too much of the milk. Continue offering milk between meals and avoid replacing milk feeds with solid foods entirely.
2. **Offer Purees in Small Amounts**: Introduce fruit purees in small quantities initially, and gradually increase the amount as your baby gets used to eating solids. This will help maintain a balance between solids and milk.
3. **Timing of Solid Foods**: Offer fruit purees at times when it doesn’t interfere with her regular milk feeds, such as mid-morning or mid-afternoon, rather than right before or after a milk feed.
4. **Monitor Milk Intake**: Track her milk intake to ensure she's getting enough. If her milk intake drops significantly, consider offering more frequent milk feeds.
5. **Consult a Pediatrician**: If you’re concerned about her milk intake or overall nutrition, consult your pediatrician. They can offer specific advice based on her growth and nutritional needs.
Ensuring a balanced diet is important for her growth and development, so maintaining a good mix of milk and solids is key.
