How often should a 5-month-old baby eat rice porridge?

Question

My baby is a boy and will turn 6 months old in 6 days. How frequently should I feed him rice porridge at this age?

Answer 1

Try not giving it too often as its high in arsenic. Arsenic is a chemical, rice is healthy but try not to focus just on it. Maybe once a week or so. That's what I read and follow, if you're not sure ask your pediatrician <3

Answer 2

Not yet. We are in France at the Luxembourg border, here the recommendation was to give just fruits and veggies at 4-6 months, then at 6-8 months fish and meat was also ok, everything else could come only after 8 months. Now he will be 1 year old on the 18th and now he eats rice like 2 times a day at least, but he is almost a toddler now
