How many meals a day can a nine-month-old eat?

Nine months of the baby, generally still in the breastfeeding period, if the mother can continue to breastfeeding is the best, but also to be clear, even if the breast milk is sufficient, but also need to give the child to increase the complementary food, a single breast milk, has been unable to meet the baby’s physical development needs. The reason is very simple, the baby development to nine months, both weight and height have obvious growth, then breast milk in the nutrients are not enough to maintain the baby’s body to continue to develop. But you can’t stop breastfeeding too soon, it’s best to implement a semi-weaning state, that is, you need to continue breastfeeding while increasing the amount of complementary foods. The same is true for babies fed with cow’s milk. What kind of complementary foods can a nine-month-old baby eat? How many times a day do they need to eat? I believe this is a question that many parents want to know. Nine-month-old babies can eat complementary foods, mainly including minced vegetables, eggs, porridge, noodles, fish, minced meat and so on. These complementary foods are best to tender, semi-solid for good, because the baby’s gastrointestinal digestion is not perfect now, is not to eat too hard food, but you can feed some soft rice. Vegetables must try to let the child eat more, especially spinach, radish, scallions and other foods containing more fiber, which can also reduce the baby constipation. Fruits should not be missing during this period, and it is best if they can be cut into slices for the baby to hold and eat by himself. Nine-month-old babies, eat five meals a day is better. If you have time, you can feed your child on time according to about seven in the morning, eleven at noon, three in the afternoon, six in the evening, and nine thirty at night. If time does not allow, you can consume the normal three meals a day with adults, but you also need to find time to increase the baby’s secondary complementary food, otherwise it is not able to meet the needs of the baby’s physical development.
