How much fibre does baby need?

Be careful about how much fibre you give your baby, as it can upset their tummy. Also too much fibre can prevent your baby from absorbing important minerals such as calcium, zinc, and iron so do be careful. After six months, give them a mixture of white and wholegrain breads and cereals, carefully increasing their intake as they get bigger. If your baby is eating a lot of pulses and lentils try to balance their diet with white bread, rice and pasta.
