What if a 3-month-old eats yogurt?

Yogurt is not recommended for a 3-month-old to eat. WHO and general pediatric guidelines recommend exclusive breast milk or formula feeding for the first 6 months. A 3-month-old's digestive system is not yet ready to process cow's milk protein and yogurt.
Possible consequences:
- Gastrointestinal discomfort (gas, bloating, diarrhea, vomiting)
- Allergic reaction risk (rash, fussiness, rarely more serious symptoms)
- Kidneys may not be able to handle the unprocessed milk protein load
If the baby ate a small amount of yogurt, don't panic, but watch for abnormal signs (severe vomiting, diarrhea, skin redness, breathing difficulty) and go to a health facility immediately if you see them. In general, to feed the baby age-appropriately, use only breast milk or the formula your doctor recommended.
