9-month-old baby's complementary food
9-month-old baby can add complementary food, such as porridge, rotten noodles, biscuits, bread, tofu, custard, minced meat, minced vegetables and fruit slices. The mother should give the baby balanced nutrition with reasonable thickness. You can eat liver paste, floss, minced meat, potatoes, sweet potatoes, tofu, bean paste, fresh broken vegetables and broken fruits. When adding, the dosage can be gradually increased from 3 to 5 grams to 5 to 1 grams twice a day. You can eat 2 small bowls of thick porridge or rotten noodles every day. Food can be diversified, and various complementary foods are added in turn. The amount of complementary food can be increased from 5 to 1 grams per meal to 15 to 3 grams, and it can reach 5 to 1 grams per day. However, the cooking should be cooked to facilitate the digestion and absorption of babies, and the meat processing should not be fried.
For infants who are not exclusively breastfed, fresh vegetable water and diluted fruit juice can be added at 2 months. Start with 1 tablespoon at a time and increase it to 5 tablespoons at the age of 5 months to supplement vitamins. The addition of vegetable water and fruit juice should be between two feedings, so as not to affect the baby's sucking milk. When operating, you can add vegetable water first, and then add fruit juice, which is beneficial to cultivate the baby's eating habits.
If you have long teeth, you can drink milk with a nipple with a larger hole to reduce the pain caused by sucking. Or mix milk powder with cereal, rice flour and other foods to make a milk paste and feed it with a spoon. When breastfeeding at ordinary times, it is best not to have noisy sounds, things, etc. that make the baby easily distracted in the surrounding environment, so as to concentrate on eating.
Milk consumption standard for 9-month-old babies
9-month-old babies mainly rely on milk, supplemented by complementary food. The total milk consumption of 9-month-old babies is about 8-1 ml per day, and it is enough to add complementary food 2-3 times a day.
The baby itself is small and can't control its food intake, which requires mothers to pay attention to controlling the baby's milk intake when feeding the baby, not only to be careful that the baby is hungry, but also to be careful not to overdo it.
If you rely solely on breast-feeding, the number of times a baby urinates in 24 hours will reach more than 6 times, which is a manifestation of sufficient milk and satiated baby. If you urinate less than five times a day in 24 hours, it means that there is not enough milk and the baby is not full.
The shape of the baby's stool fed by breast milk is soft stool with butter and oil, and the stool is 2-4 times a day, which indicates that there is enough milk and the baby is full. If the breast-fed baby has a small amount of stool and a green foam stool, it means that the mother's milk is insufficient and the baby is not full.
The change of baby's weight can often indicate whether the baby is full or hungry. Babies within 6 months gain an average of 6 grams per month or at least 125 grams per week. Babies older than 6 months gain an average of 5 grams per month. These can show that there is enough breast milk and the baby is full. If the baby's weight gain can't reach the above standard, and there is a big difference, after the disease is ruled out, it means that the milk quantity is insufficient and the baby is not full. At this time, the milk quantity can be added appropriately.
