When can my baby add complementary foods?
Some old people will say: What time is there for this? Babies can drink rice soup in a few months, and that's how you all grew up.
It is precisely because of this understanding that they cannot understand the reality that young people are nervous and follow the developmental nodes to add complementary foods to their children.
Some will even think that young people deliberately make it difficult for the elderly, which will lead to family conflicts.
On the 7th floor of a building, the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law have no direct contradictions, but they are uncomfortable in their hearts.
The main contradiction between the two people is concentrated in the aspect of "how to raise children", the mother-in-law has the main backbone, the daughter-in-law has principles, and the two do not give in to each other.
The daughter-in-law is also difficult to do, she said: "I and my mother-in-law never quarrel, I am patient with her every time, I hope she can adhere to scientific principles, but it is useless, when I communicate with her, she does not say a word, after I leave, she still should do what to do, there is no improvement at all." Take the matter of adding complementary food to the child, I have stressed many times that you can't feed the baby rice soup, she still carries me to feed, the child is only four months! ”
The mother-in-law said another way, the aunt would be kind and cheerful, using an extremely gentle tone to say to us: "People don't look up to me, I'm too old to keep up with the trend." It's not right to do anything..."
Because the two people are not on the same channel, although it seems that the family is peaceful, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have no contradictions, but in fact, the contradictions between the two sides are already very deep, and they have a sense of disgust with each other.
There are too many details to talk about about the different concepts of parenting, and today we will only talk about the time to feed the baby's first bite of complementary food.
Why is it that the best time for your baby to add complementary foods is after 6 months?
After the baby is born, it is usually breastfed or formula-fed.
Of course, according to the concept of parents, without drinking breast milk or without milk powder, children cannot eat rice soup?
Of course, yes, it's just malnutrition, which is not conducive to the baby's development.
Just like after qiqi was born in "Qiao Family's Children", under the advice of Qiao Zuwang, Qiqi ate sugary rice soup, first of all, rice soup is no longer suitable, and sugar is added.
What are the implications? It is nothing more than the child's poor physique and weak body.
Before the baby was 6 months old, the gastrointestinal system was not perfect, the digestive function was very weak, and basically no other food except milk powder could be digested.
In addition, the pancreatic amylase in the baby's body within 6 months is not enough, so it is difficult to digest food.
Adding complementary foods to children too early can only increase the burden on the child's stomach and intestines, and will not bring much nutrition to the baby.
The time for the baby to add complementary food is best after 6 months, because at this time the pancreatic amylase in the baby's body is relatively sufficient, and the child's gastrointestinal digestive system is more mature, and some puree foods can complete digestion and provide nutrients for their own physical development.
Usually if the baby is anemic, during the physical examination, the doctor will tell you that you can add complementary foods half a month in advance, and the added complementary food is preferably iron-containing rice flour, rather than rice porridge.
If the mothers are careful enough, they can also find a phenomenon, if the baby is drinking breast milk, before 6 months, the baby's tongue is against any food put in their mouth, one of the most common actions they do is to use the small tongue to push the food out.
When your baby reacts this way, it's sending a message to parents: Don't feed food, I can't eat it right now.
For babies before 6 months, the best food is breast milk or formula, and breast milk and formula can fully provide the nutritional requirements of the baby's physical development.
The first complementary food added by the baby is exquisite
The supplementary food that the old people in the south like to add to their children is "rice porridge", and in the eyes of the elderly, the best nutrition is rice porridge.
When my baby was born, my mother-in-law also highly recommended feeding rice soup to the child, she said: "The doctor said that rice soup is the best nutrition, give the child to drink rice soup, the child can be healthy." ”
I asked my husband which doctor she was talking about, and the doctor laughed and said that when he was born, the doctor at the county hospital had told her what she had said.
More than 30 years ago, rice soup was indeed a good choice for a baby, because at that time, there was a lack of materials and there was no other choice.
I don't know if my husband's stomach disease is related to snack rice porridge and rice, he has very healthy eating habits and living habits, but the stomach has not been very healthy, he said that this is genetic, I think this is related to the eating habits of childhood.
The old lady in the north believes more in the "steamed bread dipping vegetable soup", and my mother often hangs on the lips: "Steamed bun dipping vegetable soup, it is all eaten like this, how healthy the child is!" ”
The best time for a child to add table salt is after the age of 1, adding table salt to a baby before the age of 1 is harmful to the baby's body, and has certain harm to the stomach and kidneys.
Speaking of "health", I don't think so, people in their hometown generally have three highs, usually after the age of 40, they will appear, basically have to take drugs for more than ten years, decades.
I don't know if this has something to do with eating habits.
The first kind of complementary food added to children is best high-iron rice noodles, which is neither rice porridge nor steamed bun dipping vegetable soup, which is the scientific way to eat.
The main ingredient of rice noodles is rice, but it is processed, easier to digest, and it adds a lot of nutrients, which can meet the nutritional needs of children's physical development.
After that, as the baby grows up, you can add green vegetable puree to rice flour, and after 7 months, you can add a quarter of the egg yolk to rice flour (note that you can't add protein, the time to add protein should be delayed until after 1 year old, because protein is a macromolecular protein, which is easy to cause allergic reactions. ）
As the baby grows up, there are more foods that can be eaten, such as meat puree and fruit puree.
When the baby's small teeth begin to emerge, the puree food can be appropriately turned into small pieces of food, in order to exercise the baby's chewing ability and promote the healthy development of the teeth.
When adding complementary foods to the baby, it must be every time you try a new food, you can not add several at once, the purpose is that when the baby has an allergic reaction, you can understand the allergen for the first time.
The baby's diet is healthy, parents should pay more attention, because this not only affects the baby's physical development, but more importantly, it affects the baby's physical health, and it is always beneficial to adhere to scientific principles.
