Your Question?
Hey, i'm not sure if i'm on the right track please have a look thanks!!!
The question is
Marty (5mths) is thriving on bottle formuls. He sleeps well and is an extremely happy and content baby. Marty has been attending the centre four days per week for two months.
Marty's parents are quite young and have no family support. Marty is their first child.
Recently Marty's mother, Kitty, asked the carer if she should start him on solids.
What is your answer so far or What have you done so far as an attempt to solve this question?
a. How would you respond to Kitty’s questions?
THIS ONE I don't know.....
b. What information would you provide Kitty?
I would suggest waiting until Marty is at least 6 months old before starting him on solids. She can also keep feeding Marty bottle formula or breast milk as well as feeding him solids for no less than 12 months.
c. What questions might you ask?
How often are you feeding Marty? Is he wanting more food sooner then he used to.
d. What resources/websites could you access?
