Protect from the sun: Babies and young children are especially sensitive to the sun, so it is important to protect their skin from sun exposure. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30, and apply it to exposed skin every two hours or after swimming or sweating. Also, dress babies and children in lightweight, loose-fitting clothes and a hat to help protect their skin.
Rice cereal is a common first food for infants, and it is often recommended by healthcare professionals as a good source of iron for babies who are not breastfeeding. Rice cereal is also easy to digest and is less allergenic than some other grains, making it a good choice for babies who may be at risk of developing allergies.
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the World Health Organization (WHO) recommend exclusively breastfeeding infants for the first 6 months of life. After this point, breastfeeding can continue while solid foods are gradually introduced. The AAP recommends introducing solid foods to infants when they are developmentally ready, which is typically around 6 months of age.
