We all know that children’s spleen and stomach functions are relatively weak, and their digestion ability is not as good as we imagine. If you don’t pay attention to it, Taking good care of the child's spleen and stomach will have a great impact on the child's physical health. Therefore, in daily life, parents should carefully take care of the baby's spleen and stomach function.

Children do not know how to control and have no moderation when eating. Some babies cannot express themselves yet. They eat as much as adults give them. They will not say when they are hungry or full.

This is the most troublesome, because you may accidentally feed your baby too much. If you eat too much, it will not only increase the burden on the baby's gastrointestinal tract, but also lead to the possibility of food accumulation in the baby. , parents don’t care.

When my Dabao was young, it was true that I did not know some feeding knowledge at the beginning, which led to gastrointestinal problems later on.

In the past, I was always worried that my children would not have enough nutrition, so I would often prepare delicious food for them. I remember that at that time, I might have to feed them several times a day.

Later I found that my child was very restless when sleeping at night, always tossing and turning, always sleeping on his stomach, and occasionally grinding his teeth. I was a little worried, so I took my child to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said there was nothing wrong, just a bit of food accumulation.

Only then did I realize that I usually fed my child too much, which caused the child to become like this. After listening to the doctor's advice, I never dared to feed my child so much again. , it would be better for the child to be a little hungry.

1) Don’t know how to eat in moderation

Children don’t eat like adults. When they are full, they know not to eat anymore. As long as they think something is delicious, they will stop eating. If you know how to control it, you should be able to hold on even when you are full.

In addition, some parents will let their children watch cartoons while feeding them because their children are not good at eating. The baby's attention is on the cartoons, so just eat as long as you can watch them. , so it’s easy to eat too much if you’re not careful.

If this happens for a long time, the burden on the child's spleen and stomach will become heavier and heavier, and the child's digestive ability will become worse, and the child will be more likely to accumulate food.

2) Unreasonable diet

Some children may eat less, but why do they still have food accumulation? After investigation, we found that it may be related to the food the children eat.

Some children nowadays are pampered by their parents and can be satisfied with whatever they want. Fried food, puffed food, and food with strong taste are all loved by children, and parents love their children. , how can parents refuse if their children want to eat? Just act coquettish and cute, then give in and buy it for your children to eat.

However, this type of food is not suitable for children to eat. Eating too much will not only increase the burden on the child's gastrointestinal tract, but also increase the burden on the child's kidneys, which is not good for the child's health.

3) Not considering the time when the child eats

Some new mothers never consider the time when the child eats when taking care of their children. As long as they are free, they will add some complementary food to the child. Sometimes, less than half an hour later, the baby is fed again, or else the baby is put to sleep right after he finishes eating.

This invisibly increases the burden on the child's spleen and stomach, because the food from the previous meal has not been digested yet, and he continues to eat, and the child's spleen and stomach have no time to rest.

Moreover, if you go to bed as soon as you finish eating, the food will not be digested and will accumulate in the child's stomach for a long time. Later, the child's spleen and stomach function will become worse and worse, and various problems such as food accumulation and indigestion will occur. Small problems will come to your doorstep.

After parents know the causes of food accumulation, I believe everyone also understands that the reason why children are so prone to food accumulation is inseparable from the child's eating habits. Therefore, in order to avoid letting children develop food accumulation possible, parents should pay more attention to it in their daily lives.

If we find that our child has symptoms of food accumulation, we can help the child adjust through diet, which has no side effects and is helpful to the child's health.

① Pay attention to daily eating habits

For new parents, most of them have little experience in taking care of children, so they may not ignore many aspects.

Children’s eating habits have a great impact on their children’s health. Therefore, parents must pay attention to their children’s eating habits and try not to overfeed their children.

In addition, the food should be diversified as much as possible. Make some food for the child that is suitable for the child's age. For example, some food that is difficult to digest should be eaten less or preferably not eaten, so that it can be eaten within a certain period of time. To a certain extent, the possibility of food accumulation in children is avoided.

② Exercise appropriately after meals and do not go to bed immediately

Children have the habit of taking a nap at noon, and most children are sleepy after eating, so the mother will let the children go to sleep. , in fact, this is wrong, because it will easily increase the burden on the child's gastrointestinal tract.

Therefore, if the child has the habit of taking a nap, the mother can feed the child half an hour or an hour earlier, then play with the child for a while, and then take the child to bed. This will be slightly better. .

③Massage the child’s belly

When the child has symptoms of indigestion or food accumulation, the mother can massage the child’s abdomen, which will help promote the child’s gastrointestinal digestion.

Method: Now that it is winter, it is best for mothers to keep their hands warm, and then massage the baby's abdomen in a clockwise direction for about 5 minutes. This can be done multiple times a day. It is also effective in relieving the baby's food accumulation. Some help.

④ Recommended dietary supplements

Recommend a dietary supplement for mothers - pumpkin porridge. This bowl of porridge is simple to make, the ingredients are also very common, and it is easy to buy. The key is This complementary food can be eaten by babies as young as 8 months old. It is especially helpful for young babies. In the past, when my children had overeating, I would give them this bowl of porridge every now and then. All the overeating and constipation were eliminated.

Method: Prepare the ingredients pumpkin and rice. First wash the pumpkin and cut it into small pieces. Wash the rice and put them into the pot together to make porridge. After taking it out of the pot, let it cool down and pour it into the food supplement machine. Break it into pieces and give it to your baby.
