Iron should always be paired with vitamin C — it helps the body absorb iron better, especially from vegetarian foods. 🌿 Full-term babies usually have enough iron stores till 6 months. If your baby is vegetarian, focus on iron-rich complementary foods from 6 months onward. Supplements are only needed if advised by your pediatrician. Include ragi, moong dal, masoor, chana, rajma, spinach, sesame seed powder, dates paste and iron-fortified cereals. Always add a vitamin C source like lemon, orange, amla, guava or tomato in the same meal to improve uptake. Avoid giving iron with cow’s milk, excess calcium or unsoaked grains as they reduce absorption. Soaking, sprouting and fermenting foods improves iron availability naturally. Healthy iron today supports healthy brain growth tomorrow. #ironrichfoods #babyweaning #vegetarianbaby #momifytips #babyhealth
