Iron supplementation may cause the black stools. Some adjustment time is required.
Start 1 meal a day from 6-7 months age, 2 from 7-8, 3 from 8-9 etc.
Continue with on demand milk (breast or formula, whichever regularly consuming).
Avoid packaged foods.
For any queries, book an online consultation with me.
I am a lactation consultant, IYCF (Infant and Young Child Feeding) nutrition expert with an interest in Childhood Infections and Vaccinations.
