单选题 The nurse is teaching the mother of a neonate. The nurse should instruct the mother to introduce her infant to solid foods at what age?
A. 2 months.
B. 4 months.
C. 6 months.
D. 8 months.

【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】Solid foods are typically introduced around age 6 months. They aren't recommended at an earlier age because of the protrusion and sucking reflexes and the immaturity of the infant's GI tract and immune system. By age 8 months, the infant usually has been introduced to iron-fortified infant cereal and vegetables and will begin to try fruits.
