Solid Introduction Classes
Adequate nutrition along with how to introduce solids to your 4+ months old is crucial for the overall health, growth, and development of both the mother and child.
Both maternal and child nutrition have a significant impact on long-term health outcomes. Poor maternal nutrition can lead to complications during pregnancy and birth, while inadequate child nutrition can lead to stunted growth, developmental delays and increased susceptibility to diseases. Introducing Solids to your baby can be very exciting but you’ll probably have lots of questions. Introduction of solids to a child is an important milestone in their development, marking the transition from a diet primarily consisting of breast milk or formula to a more diverse range of foods.
Why this class?
Our classes give information to all the mothers, couples or individuals about what and how they can introduce solids to their child. As babies grow, they are gradually introduced to solid foods, typically starting around six months of age. These foods should be appropriate in texture and nutrient content. With all the unfiltered knowledge outside and different methods of introducing solids, it’s essential to consider your child’s developmental readiness to start with solids. With the Prior information about Complementary feeding, the new mother can avoid risks and start the first food for her baby at the right time with confidence. Our Solid Introduction class also helps to overcome the mother’s concern on maintaining the infant nutrition through her milk supply and complementary foods.
