Child double weight in its first year three times, if the weight at birth (3 - 3.5 kg) become (approximately 9 - 10 kg) and increasingly - 25 cm long, or what representing 50% of the length of birth, as well as the area around the head, and that reflects growth brain which is approximately 12 cm or 30% size of the measured count childbirth.

This tremendous growth in this phase needs to balanced food and higher calories which if disrupted or decreased somewhat they also affect the growth of the child physical and mental negatively.

There are three stages of feeding in this age and successive stages are interrelated, but at the same time.

- Infancy: the phase of milk.

- Transition: shift from milk to solid food.

- Solid phase: where food is more coherent than previously, and it is the stage that precedes the regular eating.

Infancy phase:

It is start from birth to age 4 - 6 months, where milk (breast milk or cow milk) consider to be the only primary source of nutrition and is sufficient at this stage, taking into account some important things:

- The baby milk in the market similar in terms of structure and its rules organized by the global, and therefore there is no better, except for medical known but rare.

- Avoid giving the child the adult milk so-called full - fat milk for the non-uniformity with breast milk in terms of structure and therefore its adverse effect on the kidneys and digestive organs and from then on the child's development.

- The iron-subsidized milk is the best alternative to breast milk if could not breastfeeding.

- The number and the time of each infant determined by the stomach digestion of the child (2 - 4 hours) and is vary from child to another.

- The refusal of the child for breast can be a first sign of disease, especially if combined with other evidences.

- It must be wary of giving the child other things - honey for example - which can lead to serious health damage in the first year of age.

Transition phase:

It is extending from age 4 - 6 months, until almost the tenth month, during this stage, the milk is a complement to other foods and is also the beginning of weaning, that mean progressive replacement of milk to solid food… taking into account the following matters:

- Failure to start weaning stage early makes it difficult to achieve in the future as the child remains in infancy and therefore find it comfortable.

- It must begin by material does not raise the sensitivity of the Child, the best start is the rice powder (prepared specially for children and Gluten-free.)

- Give the food to the Child in dish, as well as the juice in cup and not in the feeder.

- It should not force the child to complete the dish at this stage because this is the experience stage and because this leads to the refusal of eating or vomiting and therefore failed of the experiment at the beginning.

Solid phase:

In this phase the dynamic nervous system of the mouth is efficiency and Digestive system and kidneys are both eligible to make child eat similar to the rest of the family. , with some minor differences, thereby decreasing the need for milk to approximately 35% of the daily need.
