0-6 months
When the baby is just born, the mother should be extra careful.
1. The mother stopped breastfeeding after at least six months.
2, the baby usually starts to add complementary food in 4-6 months.
3. If it is time for the baby to eat complementary food, he will show dissatisfaction with dairy products. If he had slept until dawn, he would often wake up hungry now.
4. If the mother adds complementary food to the baby at 6 months or later, some babies will have difficulty in chewing and swallowing food.
5. The best complementary food can be children's rice noodles, mashed potatoes, mashed carrots, mashed pears, mashed apples and banana puree.
6. If the complementary food is too dry and hard, you can add cold boiled water or dilute the dairy products that children usually eat.
7, 6 months ago, don't give him anything containing gluten, such as barley, wheat, oats, etc.
8. Don't add salt to the baby's food before he 12 months old, because salt will burden the kidneys and may also lead to dehydration.
Between 9.6- 12 months, the baby should drink 500ml-600ml of breast milk or formula milk every day.
10. If you feed with a bottle, you should always clean and disinfect the bottle at high temperature, because breast milk or milk is a hotbed of bacteria.
1 1. If you cook food and put it in the refrigerator for later use, remember to mark the date of making it and don't store it for too long.
12. If you take out the things in the refrigerator and thaw them for your baby, don't put the leftovers back to eat next time.
13. If you give your baby thawed food, you must cook it again or heat it in a microwave oven, and then give it to your baby when it is cold.
14. Before feeding the baby, be sure to try the temperature of the food yourself.
15. Try to talk to the baby, encourage him to swallow food, ensure that he feels comfortable and relaxed when eating, and let him eat at his own pace.
16, be patient, don't worry too much if the baby refuses solid food at first. You can continue to try tomorrow.
17, the baby should learn how to push food to the back of the mouth with his tongue. So if he makes a mess at dinner, don't worry, everything will be fine.
18, try to feed the baby at the same time every day, so that the baby will gradually form a habit.
19, let the baby have his own spoon, so that he will try to eat by himself. Of course, you need to help him with the spoon during the whole process.
20. At six or seven months, the baby will grow his first tooth. As the teeth grow, you can let him try coarse fiber food.
2 1. When the baby can support his head and sit up straight, you can choose a suitable baby chair for him, and be careful not to let the chair * be close to the wall, otherwise the baby's head may hit the wall.
22. Don't leave the baby alone when he is eating.
23. Move his chair to the table and let him have dinner with the whole family.
Your baby begins to like to eat by himself, so let him use the spoon freely without worrying about leaving the table all over the floor.
Your baby has learned to crawl, so he needs more nutritious food to provide physical strength, such as fish, grain and fruit.
25. Don't worry about mixing sweet and salty. Many babies like the taste. Fruit and chicken are many babies' favorite foods.
26. Let the baby try to eat some snacks, which will help him learn to eat by himself faster. If he is teething, he prefers to eat with his hands rather than with a spoon.
27, snacks should be able to let the baby grasp by hand, but also soft enough to facilitate chewing and swallowing.
28. Give the baby a small bowl with a sucker, and let the bowl be fixed on the table without moving.
29. Vegetables or fruits frozen in the refrigerator are very suitable for babies who are teething. You can try freezing peeled cucumbers or bananas.
30. If you feed your baby complementary food every time, he doesn't seem hungry. You can reduce the intake of dairy products and absorb nutrients from solid food.
3 1. If the baby feels thirsty between meals, give him water or the dairy products he usually eats, and leave the diluted juice for him to drink at dinner.
32. Give the baby cold boiled water. Bottled or canned mineral water may contain high content of mineral salts.
33. Try to give your baby freshly squeezed juice and avoid bottled juice, because the sugar and acidic substances contained in those juices will damage your baby's teeth. Dilute all fruit juice, because for children of this age, natural sugar can cause dental caries, and the dilution ratio should be one fruit juice and five waters.
34. When the baby is about one year old, try to get him to give up the bottle and replace it with a cup with two handles or a special training cup.
Don't believe those reports that honey and fructose are "healthy sugar". They will all damage the baby's teeth. After the baby eats these things, you should clean his teeth with a soft toothbrush or a clean cloth.
12- 18 months
At this stage, the baby's growth rate will slow down and his appetite will weaken. If he eats less than before, his mother need not worry at all.
Now, you should cultivate his good eating habits. It is best to eat five meals a day. Fruits and vegetables are essential. Breakfast includes a fruit, and both lunch and dinner should have vegetables.
If the baby doesn't like cooked vegetables, try giving him raw carrots or cucumbers.
When you cook vegetables, you should know that steamed vegetables taste better than boiled vegetables, and at the same time, they retain more nutrients.
39. If there is no way for your baby to accept vegetables, try cutting vegetables into small pieces and mixing them in rice or sauce.
40. If the baby is allowed to eat with his family, remember that he needs more calories and fat than adults.
4 1. Generally, the darker the color of fruits and vegetables, the higher their nutritional value. You can choose according to this principle.
18 months to 2 years old
At this stage, the baby begins to have ideas and decide what he likes or doesn't like to eat, so try to provide him with rich food choices to avoid making eating a baby's problem.
42. If the baby doesn't want to eat, take the food away instead of forcing him to eat.
43. Give your baby healthy snacks and keep him away from chocolate, potato chips and jelly.
44. If you don't want your baby to eat junk food, you must first have healthy eating habits.
45. Only eat sugary things at mealtimes, because eating other foods at the same time can dilute the acidity and reduce the corrosiveness of sugar to teeth.
46. It's time to expose your baby to new foods, which can effectively prevent partial eclipse. If he doesn't eat, mom won't give up. Try a few more times and you will succeed.
47, in order to let the baby eat new food, try to use the form of games. Blindfold the baby, give him something to eat, and then let him guess what he is eating. The baby may like this method.
48. Excessive food can easily make the baby lose appetite, so try to make the food into small portions and give another one after eating.
If he doesn't want to eat a certain food, don't force him to eat it right away and eat it later.
50. Make the baby's recipes rich and varied, and avoid him refusing to eat because he is bored.
5 1, try to give him full-fat food, and the baby can't drink low-fat milk until at least 2 years old.
2-3 years old
At this stage, your baby will be happy to work in the kitchen with you.
Let the baby cook with you, which can improve his interest in eating.
If he tells you that he is hungry, you'd better let him eat at once, because the baby is likely to be attracted by other things while waiting and lose interest in eating.
You can start giving him some high-fiber carbohydrates, such as potatoes and black rice, but not too much. A baby's stomach fills easily.
55. Avoid frying and baking food. It is best to cook or process food in a microwave oven.
56. If the baby likes cream, just spread a thin layer on the bread and don't give him too much.
57. Restrict the baby from eating sweets, so that the baby is much less likely to get dental caries.
58. When making food, satisfy children's preferences to the maximum extent. For example, you can try to make vegetables colorful, and children will naturally have an appetite.
59. When buying fruits or vegetables, let the baby choose by himself, and the baby will definitely be more willing to eat what he chooses.
The situation of my cousin's baby is similar. It's six and a half months now, thinner than a baby his age. When I went to the hospital, the doctor prescribed some medicine for strengthening the spleen and stomach. Much better now. I found that when the baby doesn't want to eat, I can't force him to feed, so it's easy to feel sick and vomit. Eat less and eat more meals every day, and massage your baby to promote digestion. It's hot now, so we should feed more boiled water every day. If the baby doesn't like boiled water, you can add some honeysuckle dew.
