1. Don't wean in summer
Due to the hot weather in summer, the digestive function of gastrointestinal tract is weakened. If you add too much complementary food to your child after weaning, it will easily lead to indigestion and even gastrointestinal diseases such as diarrhea. It is generally best to wean in spring and autumn.
2. Don't wean your child when he is sick.
Because the child has poor disease resistance, poor digestive function and weak body, if weaning at this time, it will inevitably affect the recovery of the body and even aggravate the condition.
Don't wean your child by coercion or intimidation.
It is not advisable to force children to wean by coating their nipples with spicy, bitter or colored things. Complementary food should be delicious and delicious, so that children like to eat it. Over time, children will never want to breastfeed again.
4. Strengthen nursing.
Strengthen nursing during weaning, and pay attention to observe whether the child's stool is normal and whether the weight is reduced. If any abnormal phenomenon is found, it should be handled in time and not let go.
Children have been used to breastfeeding since birth. We shouldn't rush into changing this habit. Be sure to let children gradually form eating habits based on other foods some time before weaning, and add some hard foods such as bread to the food, so that children can grind their teeth and adapt to eating some hard foods. If you want to be in a hurry, take some measures such as putting pepper water, gentian violet and coptis root on your nipples, and you will often "haste makes waste".
After weaning, children are in a rapid period of growth and development and need more nutrition. They must choose foods, fresh vegetables and fruits rich in protein. Children's meals should be made softer, finer and more colorful. Add a new variety every three or four days, start from a small amount and quantify your diet regularly. With rice porridge and pasta as the staple food, adults give their children a full meal when eating, and the feeding amount is basically the same every time. Don't let children eat snacks, you can have milk for breakfast or add meals at 4 pm.
And pay attention to protecting mother's breasts. There may be different degrees of abdominal distension after weaning, and poor protection will make the breast inflamed. You can use a breast pump to suck the milk out or squeeze it out by hand, and you can also use some recipes to return the milk. For example:
① Massa Medicata Fermentata 1, stir-fried wheat teeth 25g, decocted in water for oral administration, raw malt 60g, raw hawthorn 30g, once a day 1 time, decocted in water for 3-4 days.
② Stir-fried malt 100g, decocted in water, once a day 1 time, for 3 days.
