3.5-month-old baby solid foods?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Solid foods are absolutely not recommended for a 3.5-month-old baby. The World Health Organization (WHO) and Turkish Ministry of Health recommend that babies be fed exclusively on breast milk (or formula if no breast milk) for the first 6 months.

At this age, your baby's digestive system isn't yet ready to process solid foods. Starting solids too early can lead to:

  • Digestive problems (gas, constipation, diarrhea)
  • Increased allergy risk
  • Choking risk

When your baby is around 6 months old, you can consult your pediatrician about transitioning to solids. For now, continuing with breast milk or formula is the healthiest choice.
