The prince is not a new born!! I don’t remember exactly what age he is but he’s probably between 5-8months. Babies can already eat solid foods (hence the bread in soup so soft foods) at 6mo and crawling/babbling milestone is around 7-10mos. Novel does state that he is stronger/more athletic than most and he was actually jumping on the chandeliers and stuff, so he’s supposed to be slightly abnormal and more developed too (I believe). Not to say the grapes and stuff he def shouldn’t be eating yet but yeah

Is that why babies in the past before easily died because they don't know how to take care of babies? Feeding a newborn(?) baby bread in soup is the author dumb?
