The latest advice on introducing solids is to take it slowly - one thing at a time.
You can still stick to the guidelines for babies without eczema - but instead of introducing a food at say 5 months - wait another month - and this goes for all solids.
This delay is quite important because these babies with eczema seem to have a slightly less mature digestion system which eventually catches up to being ‘normal’ when they older. However, introducing food more slowly gives their immature digestions a chance to cope more effectively while they are babies.Report this post
