1. Breastfeeding: Breast milk is one of the best foods for babies. It provides rich nutrition and antibodies, which helps to strengthen the immune system and promote intestinal health. It is recommended that mothers exclusively breastfeed their babies in the first six months after birth.
2. Introduce complementary food: When the baby reaches the right age (usually about 6 months), you can gradually introduce complementary food. You can choose a single food at first, such as rice flour, rice paste or fruit paste, and then gradually introduce other foods, such as vegetables, fruits and meat. Ensure the quality and freshness of food, and avoid adding salt, sugar or seasoning.
3. Avoid allergic foods: Some foods may cause allergic reactions, such as eggs, peanuts, milk and fish. You'd better consult a pediatrician before introducing these foods. If there is a history of allergies in the family, pay special attention.
4. Balanced diet: Ensure that babies get all kinds of nutrients, including protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins and minerals. Diversified food choices help to meet their nutritional needs.
5. Pay attention to drinking water: Babies need enough water to keep the body's water balance. At an appropriate time, you can give the right amount of water or dilute the juice. Avoid giving babies caffeinated drinks.
6. Avoid overfeeding: Infants and young children have limited stomach capacity, and overfeeding may lead to indigestion or other health problems. Control your food intake according to your baby's needs and hunger signals.
7. Establish a regular eating time: Establishing a regular eating schedule can help babies establish good eating habits. Try to avoid letting babies eat snacks or drink too much liquid before meals.
8. Pay attention to food safety: ensure that all food is safe and avoid giving expired or unclean food to babies. At the same time, avoid exposing the baby to harmful substances, such as detergents or drugs. Every baby's situation is unique, and it is best to make a diet plan suitable for the baby under the guidance of a pediatrician.
