Certified Midwife Exam Prep

Category - Midwifery

The midwife is teaching a group of breastfeeding mothers about introducing solid foods. Solid foods are correctly introduced at which sequence:

  1. Cereals, fruits, vegetables, egg yolks, meat
  2. Cereals, vegetables, fruits, egg yolks, meat
  3. Cereals, vegetables, fruits, meat, egg yolks
  4. Vegetables, fruits, cereals, meat, egg yolks
Explanation

Answer: C - The correct sequence when introducing solid foods is cereals, vegetables, fruits, meat, and egg yolks. Cereals are introduced first. They can be mixed with enough fluid to make the mixture reasonably liquid. Vegetables are given before fruits, as they contain more iron. Meat is offered for around nine months and egg yolks are given for around ten months. Individual pediatricians may give varying guidance.
