Complementary feeding is the process of introducing solid, semi-solid, and soft foods to an infant while continuing breastfeeding when breast milk alone is no longer sufficient to meet the child's nutritional requirements. According to recommended child health practices, complementary feeding should begin at six months of age because, after this period, the nutritional demands of a growing infant, especially for energy, protein, iron, zinc, and certain vitamins, cannot be fulfilled by breast milk alone. Breastfeeding should continue up to two years of age or beyond along with appropriate complementary foods. The main objectives of complementary feeding are to provide adequate nutrition, support normal growth and development, prevent malnutrition, strengthen immunity, and help the child develop healthy eating habits. Proper complementary feeding also promotes cognitive development and reduces the risk of infections and micronutrient deficiencies. Delayed introduction of complementary foods can result in undernutrition and growth faltering, whereas introducing them too early may increase the risk of infections, allergies, and reduced breast milk intake.
