Most babies can start eating cod at 7 months, but it is forbidden for babies with fish allergies.
Complementary foods for babies starting at 7 months should pay attention to energy density and protein content, giving priority to iron-rich foods and dark-colored vegetables. High protein foods include animal foods such as egg yolks, livestock and poultry, fish and legumes. Food texture gradually transitions from pureed foods to crumbly foods, gradually increasing the roughness of the food, such as switching from pureed vegetables and meat to soft, crumbly fruits and vegetables.
Cod is a deep-sea fish, rich in protein and minerals, which helps the development of the baby’s nervous system and bones. Cod is also soft and tender with fewer spines, making it easier for babies to digest. So you can start to give your baby cod fish at 7 months.
It should be noted that the first time to eat cod fish amount should not be too much, to be gradually adapted to the stomach, and then gradually increase the amount. In addition, when your baby is eating, you should always observe whether there are any allergic symptoms. If there is any discomfort, go to the hospital as soon as possible. Cod is not recommended for babies who are allergic to fish.
