The stomach capacity of babies is much smaller than that of adults, and they are prone to flatulence when drinking breast milk or milk powder, so parents need to make specific choices and arrangements according to their baby's digestion.

When you first start feeding your baby complementary food, you should feed it twice a day, and you can feed it like this for about a week. During this time, it is necessary to carefully observe the baby's situation to see if there is any abnormal reaction, if the baby accepts, you can continue to change to the next food, so that slowly from less to more, if the child cries more than and is accompanied by vomiting, diarrhea, allergies and other adverse reactions, at this time to immediately stop this food, and record it.

Gradually adjust the consistency of complementary foods according to your baby's development and acceptance.

The baby's complementary food should follow from simple to complex, from one to a variety of slowly added. Many parents like to give their children a variety of juice at the beginning, such as fruit juice, vegetable juice, etc., in fact, the main ingredients in the juice are sugar and water, the main nutrition is still in the slag, the result is thrown, the baby will drink sugar water will affect the spleen and stomach, this is also parenting common sense!
