Eating & drinking

Depending on the individual state of development of your baby, milk or formula will no longer be sufficient from 4 months to the 6th month because at this age your baby grows very fast. Nutritional experts now recommend extending the menu by adding vegetable, potato and meat dishes. As soon as a baby is receiving more meals as solid food, a drink in addition to breast milk or milk formula is important.
