Some parents are puzzled. Should children drink milk or eat first after getting up, which is better for the stomach? For children of different ages, do you drink milk or eat first after getting up? The order is really different, but if children reach the age of eating mainly and drinking milk as a supplement, it is best to eat first, or eat something first and then drink milk, which is better for the stomach.

You will be hungry after getting up in the morning, and many people will drink a glass of milk in the morning to get rid of their hunger more quickly. But you should know that drinking milk on an empty stomach after getting up in the morning is actually an unhealthy behavior. Because the stomach is hungry in the morning, it needs a lot of food to supplement energy, and drinking milk will stimulate the stomach, causing nutrient loss, which is not conducive to health and nutrient absorption. Of course, this is only for people who mainly eat, but for children of different ages, should they drink milk or eat first? The order is also different.

Most children before 6 months mainly drink milk, so at this time, there is no question of whether to drink milk or eat first. Babies aged 6-9 months need to drink milk before eating. Generally, a 6-month-old baby is in the initial stage of adding complementary food, and the baby still mainly drinks milk, and some complementary food can be added accordingly. But it is certainly unrealistic to let children eat complementary food as soon as they get up. After the child drinks milk, let the child try complementary food slowly, let the child go from drinking milk to eating complementary food slowly, and give the child an acceptance process.

9-12 months old babies can eat before drinking milk. Babies aged 9-12 months grow to a certain extent, and their ability to eat complementary food is getting better and better. There will be two or three complementary foods a day, and they can eat first and then drink milk in the morning. Doing so can not only make children adapt to eating as soon as possible, but also avoid the damage to the stomach caused by drinking milk on an empty stomach.

For children over one year old, it is better to get up every morning. It is better to eat or eat something else before drinking milk. Drinking milk can be drunk between meals, and the overall diet can be balanced every day.
