What Are The Harmful Effects Of Feeding A Baby With Cake?
I was resently at a friends house and someone there had a seventh month old baby and they were feeding the baby spoonfulls of frosting off a cake. It even appeared the child was choking on it, but the mom said no it was just getting a sugar rush. How harmful can this be for a baby. What can I tell the mother to discourage this?

Hi,
A seven month old baby can be offered a bit of cake once in a while, provided it is carefully given without chocking or aspiration.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
