Question

A client and her 6-month old child come in for a well-baby visit. The client asks the nurse for advice on introducing solid foods. Which is the most appropriate suggestion to the mother?

Question 99 options:

a) 

Introduce vegetables first, one at a time, then fruits, so the child doesn’t reject the less sweet vegetables   


b) 

Introduce multi-grain iron enriched cereal first and stick with that until the baby is old enough to be introduced to meats at 9 months of age


c) 

Introduce iron-rich foods first, including meat and meat alternatives, one at a time, since the baby’s iron stores will be getting low


d) 

Introduce iron-fortified cereals, one at a time, sweetened with a little honey to make them more easily accepted
