my lo is on bm and solids and she is 10 months old. i understand the content of iron in bm is low/insufficient for her age. she recently started rejecting cereal (of any kind, prepared various ways). i know i can include high-iron foods like spinach and meats for her but is it sufficient? cause i read that 1 egg only has 0.6mg of iron. and babies this age needs 11mg peer day!

I think a well balanced diet is necessary. Include a food that is high in iron everyday like spinach. Sometimes can supplement with iron fortified cereal or pasta. If you don't plan to give formula at all then exposing baby To a variety of food especially meats and spinach will be necessary
