We are with you as your little lamb grows up, with our delicious recipes! What are the delicious foods special for 0-1 year old baby nutrition, what you need to know about baby nutrition and what are the additional foods you should give to your little one during this period? We told it all!

What are the Nutrition Patterns at 0-1 Years Old?
1. Breastfeeding alone
The most valuable group. In this type of feeding, the baby receives only breast milk. Nothing is provided as an extra, including water. Only necessary vitamin supplements are given.
2. Predominant breastfeeding
Breast milk is used as the main food source, but water, watery drinks and herbal teas are also given. Experts do not recommend this diet. The fact that the baby receives only breast milk in the first months gives him many advantages in his future life.
3. Mixed feeding
In mixed feeding, additional formula is given because breast milk is not enough for the baby. The formulas closest to the composition of breast milk are selected.
4. The period of starting complementary foods
In babies with sufficient breast milk, supplementary foods are started to be added with milk after the 6th month to meet the needs of the child. When choosing these formulas, try to choose those with prebiotic content, which is also in breast milk.
You can switch to solid food with your baby’s 6th month!
- We said that breast milk basically covers everything in infant feeding. At 6 months, you need to switch to a nutrition program that is no longer in breast milk and will meet your little one’s need for vitamins and fiber found in foods in nature.
- Since the meals you will offer your baby will be in small quantities at first, you can supplement her nutrition with breast milk or formula.
- Introduce breast milk or formula after solids. Thus, it will give more positive results if you try solid food with a spoon when your baby is hungry and interested.
- Continue to feed your little one at intervals of 2.5-3 hours at 5 and 6 months, and at intervals of 3-4 hours at 7 months and thereafter. Formula-fed babies get hungry later.
