Every mother is great, and they give almost everything for their children, youth, beauty and even dignity. After giving birth to the baby, every mother will encounter a lot of embarrassing things in life, although it has brought a lot of trouble to the mothers, but all the complaints about seeing the cute baby will disappear.
The nutrients that babies are most likely to lack are not calcium or zinc, but iron. When the 4-year-old boy was in the previous physical examination, the doctor said that it was a little iron deficiency anemia, and the parents did not pay attention to it, thinking that it would be good for the children to eat more pig liver and duck blood. Until the discovery of the child, the response is a little sluggish, the kindergarten teacher said that the child's interaction is almost not moving, only to realize that the lack of iron has affected the child's development. Some children may experience iron deficiency, especially toddlers or adolescents.
Baby anemia, where is the cause?
First, the intake and reserves are insufficient. Whether it is breast milk or milk powder, each 100 ml contains 0 points 5-1 point 5 mg of iron, after six months to add complementary food or patch, the baby needs to increase the intake of iron for each kilogram of weight, 32 weeks before the birth of premature infants iron reserves are far from enough.
Second, excessive loss or malabsorption disorders. Diarrhea and gastrointestinal bleeding due to allergies, infections and other reasons, so that the excretion of iron is too much, even more than the intake of iron in food, chronic diarrhea affects the absorption of iron, repeated infections increase iron consumption. If it is premature, frequent diarrhea, bloody stools should be paid special attention to.
Third, the demand has increased. Infant growth and development is faster, 3-5 months of age weight can increase to 2-3 times the birth weight, premature infant weight increase faster, with weight increase blood volume also increased faster, such as do not add iron-rich food, infants and young children, especially premature babies are prone to iron deficiency, the faster the growth and development, the more vitamin B12 is needed, the less intake is easy to lack.
How to care for pediatric anemia?
1. Pumpkin porridge. The pumpkin is washed, peeled, cut into pieces, steamed, and the steamed pumpkin is pureed with a blender, the whole process does not need to put sugar, the pumpkin has its own sweetness.
2. Chicken spinach porridge. Method: Wash the chicken thighs, remove the bones, boil the water in the pot, blanch the chicken thighs with blanched blood foam, pour off the dirty water, clean the diced chicken thighs, wash the fungus foam, chop, shred the spinach leaves by hand, stew the chicken and the fungus and rice together into porridge, sprinkle with spinach.
Third, the doctor said that it is not enough to eat iron supplements, because the iron in the food is trivalent iron, which is difficult for the human body to absorb, so iron supplements are needed, and every time you eat complementary foods, crush half a tablet and stir the food to eat.
