The addition of complementary foods is a necessary stage for babies to transition from drinking milk to eating.
The addition of complementary food not only provides some necessary nutrients for the baby at this stage, but also promotes the development of the baby's sense of taste and smell, exercises the baby's swallowing function and chewing function, and chewing food will stimulate the baby's tooth eruption and oral muscle exercise, involving the baby's future language development.
In short, complementary food is very important, so if you want your baby to grow well, the following 4 misunderstandings of adding complementary food must be avoided.
The 6-month-old baby has just added complementary food, and he feels "at no point", so these four misunderstandings should be avoided as soon as possible
1. Eating more is healthier.
Forced feeding is the most important thing, and it is also a common problem for many parents, in order to let the baby eat more, they will let them eat after they are full. Such feeding may cause the baby to be overfed, indigestion, and food accumulation.
It will also lead to a decrease in their ability to perceive food, and they will habitually eat too much, which will lead to physical happiness and other diseases after a long time.
2. The time to add complementary food is too early.
The newborn baby's digestive system is not fully developed, and the digestive ability is lacking at this time.
Some mothers mistakenly believe that adding complementary foods to their baby when he is less than 6 months old can help him grow faster and better, but this is not true.
Adding complementary food to your baby too early will increase your baby's gastrointestinal burden, and symptoms such as bloating and diarrhea may occur. Because the baby's stomach and intestines are not yet able to fully digest the highly nutritious complementary food, adding complementary food at this time will only increase the burden on the baby's body.
3. If you don't add complementary food to your baby in time, you will delay it again and again.
I have such a friend around me, the baby is seven or eight months old, but has not eaten a bite of complementary food, asked the reason, parents said that the mother's breast milk is good, or the baby loves **, as long as the meal is full and does not eat complementary food, it is fine, and some mothers feel that it is convenient to feed, and it is troublesome to do complementary food and feed complementary food, so it will be delayed again and again, and the baby will not be added in time.
This is not the right approach. Because the nutrition of breast milk or milk powder is not enough to meet the baby's physical development needs, then eating breast milk or milk powder alone is not only not nutritious, but also easy to starve, which is not conducive to the growth of the baby. After the addition of complementary food, the nutrition is relatively comprehensive, and the baby can slowly adapt to things other than milk, and can transition to meals faster and better in the future.
Therefore, after six months, you should also eat complementary food.
4. Supplementary food is too "hard, coarse and raw".
Some parents just don't consider the characteristics of the baby's development and completely "follow their own temperament".
As a result, after not eating for two days, the baby accumulated food and had indigestion.
In fact, this is a misunderstanding, raising a baby is still scientific!
The baby's digestive machine ability has not yet developed, and the complementary food is rough and stiff, so it cannot be digested and absorbed well. Moreover, the ability to swallow and chew also needs to be exercised step by step.
Therefore, to give the baby complementary food, should be based on the principle of complementary food addition, combined with the baby's age, from the thin, soft, fine, cooked mud paste to eat, and gradually increase the texture of the complementary food, in order to exercise the baby's chewing ability.
Children's supplementary food production is very particular, what kind of materials to choose is very important, how to make it is even more critical. Many mothers don't know how to make complementary food, so they follow the adult's recipe to make it for their children, resulting in children not digesting it, but it will hurt the child's spleen and stomach and cause food accumulation.
Therefore, it is recommended that mothers learn to make complementary foods in raising their children. Here is a highly recommended complementary food book "What to Eat Weekly Complementary Food" that is sought after by thousands of mothers.
This book starts with the addition of complementary foods for babies at six months and ends with recipes for children at the age of three, and details the recipes for each day of each week.
