Every baby will have a long or short period of anorexia, some for one to two weeks, some up to half a year, parents should carefully observe and understand the needs of the baby, learn skills, and accompany the child through the anorexia period.
Avoid other stimuli in the environment that divert your baby's attention
Hong Zhiping pointed out that the primary reason for general physiological anorexia is that the baby's growth rate slows down, about four months, the weight should be twice that of birth, and when it reaches the age of one, the baby's weight is three times; moreover, the baby is easy to be distracted, curious about external things, if there is sound and light stimulation in the environment, such as TELEVISION, mobile phone sound, it may not be easy to focus on drinking milk.
In addition, the baby likes to bite things when teething, and does not like to suck the bottle, etc., at this time, no matter how the parents are appeased, the baby is not willing to drink, and even the milk amount is only 1/3 or 1/4 of the original, which represents entering the anorexia stage.
When nursing their babies, new parents should maintain a fixed time, and the environment is simple, reduce external stimuli such as sound and light music, avoid watching TV, or slide the mobile phone while feeding.
In addition, when breastfeeding, the most taboo to tease the baby, if the baby is drinking milk intently, once the transfer force is transferred, it may no longer want to drink milk.
The amount of milk you drink can be adjusted according to your baby's habits
If the child suddenly does not drink milk, it is recommended to interact with the baby more during the day, read together, or help the baby massage, so as to consume the child's physical strength and increase the appetite. Do not force your baby to drink milk, so as not to make your baby have the shadow of drinking milk, and it is easy to choke.
Some parents strictly abide by the parenting bible and the treasure book, believing that it is necessary to strictly control how much milk the child drinks each time, in fact, "do not be so strict", as long as the baby is willing, drink more, do not deliberately limit the amount of milk.
Sometimes it doesn't matter if the baby drinks more in half asleep and half awake, if the baby is willing to take a small number of meals, it is also feasible, the principle is not to force the baby.
It is worth noting that after the baby turns 6 months old, parents begin to feed non-staple foods to supplement nutrition, be sure to choose natural ingredients that are easy to digest and absorb and fresh, and avoid feeding processed foods and condiments.
In addition, feeding your baby's side foods should also pay attention to multiple attempts to arouse your baby's interest in food. In addition, through spoon feeding, the baby's ability to chew and swallow is trained, and he is curious about eating.
How do I know if my baby's growth curve is in the appropriate age? You can refer to the simple evaluation method, whether the baby has more than 80 to 100cc of milk per kilogram per day, for example, if the baby is four kilograms, he will drink at least 320cc of milk per day. In addition, urinating in diapers every day, if the six tablets have weight in their hands, are within the range, and new parents don't have to worry too much.
