A mother wants to know why she can't give her 1-month-old child cereal as the child seems hungry all the time. Which of the following is the nurse's best response?
 
  a. Until 4 to 6 months of age, babies have insufficient amounts of the pancreatic enzyme amylase, the enzyme that initially digests carbohydrate.
  b. The baby would not drink enough milk if he filled his stomach up with cereal, and he would not thrive as well.
  c. Infants are allergic to all food substances except milk until they are 6 months of age and develop sufficient antibodies.
  d. Infants get too fat if they are started on cereal before 4 to 5 months of age, and then they have a tendency to remain fat throughout life.
