as hk gov't following WHO's way to promote breastfeeding, the clinic will tell u that for the first 6 months, only breast milk is enough n it is not gd to feed other food.
i m sure only breast milk is enough. but how about those can't continue feed breast milk?
owing to this "breast milk" policy, u can c that there is no promotion of any milk powder under 6 months old. even if the other No. of milk powder of the same series are doing promotion in the supermarket, u won't get discount or any gift if u buy the No.1 (e.g. A+).
I read many many books, some from Japan, some from US and some from UK. Most also say that it is better to start "replacing one meal with semi-solid food" after 6 months. but before that we ve to train the baby to use the spoon, to swallow the food after closing his mouth (different from the way to drink milk), to test those semi-solid food is allergic, etc. it takes time. so, those books usually recommend trying to give semi-solid food after 4 months.
giving semi-solid food has two purposes: nutrients and more important- train him to eat.
