Pre-packed Baby Food
When introducing pre-packaged baby food, be careful to read the labels. Consult your child’s pediatrician regarding the ingredients and formulations to make sure to prevent allergic reactions.
Follow the instructions on the baby food packaging and restrict your water usage to the amount as directed. This is the amount of water that is required by your baby’s body and the amount that they can digest. Make sure that you do not use more water than directed as it may lead to water intoxication.
