In the folk, many places have the custom of opening meat for small babies, that is, when the baby grows to 100 days, the family needs to prepare some exquisite dishes for adults to eat, and then hold a small celebration ceremony to wish the baby a smooth and healthy growth in the future days.
Because the meaning is very good, but also very ceremonial, so the marriage ceremony is valued by many parents, it is worth mentioning that in order to enliven the atmosphere, the family will also continue to say some blessings to the baby during the meat opening ceremony.
For example: eat garlic, can say will count, eat crab, brave forward...
Online, a mother posted a wedding ceremony prepared by her family when her daughter was 6 months old.
The ceremony was held very solemnly, the baby sat happily on his small sofa, surrounded by rice and flour grains and oils and vegetables and melons prepared by the family, and there were 4 big words on the wall: Meat Opening Ceremony.
At the ceremony site, each food has its own unique meaning: green onions represent wisdom, apples represent peace, rice noodle oil represents a lifetime of eating and drinking without worry, and Wangzai milk has the meaning of smooth life and prosperity all the way...
Although the venue is simple, the atmosphere is warm, and the children are surrounded by the blessings of the parents and are very happy.
The same is for the baby to hold a meat opening ceremony, the following father also made a very good preparation.
Only to see him carefully put a large green onion in the child's mouth for a moment, and then said: Eat the onion, smart and clever.
The chicken feet were pasted to the child's mouth again, and this time the blessing was: Eat a chicken claw and grab a lot of money.
This meat opening ceremony amused many netizens, and some people said that there should be such a sense of ceremony in life, so that parents and families can experience the joy of children's growth.
Some netizens also joked that this meat opening ceremony is completely prepared for adults, the baby is too young to digest these things, and can only look at the eyes.
Indeed, because the baby's stomach is relatively fragile, these adult foods are usually not fed into the mouth, and everyone's routine is to put the food into the baby's mouth, make a short stay, and then take it one after another.
But in Changsha, Hunan Province, a baby was sent to the hospital on the spot because he actually ate something from the meat opening ceremony, which caused his body to have allergies.
It is understood that this is a baby boy who has just turned 100 days old, because the elderly in the family insist on holding a meat opening ceremony for their grandchildren, so the child drank the first crucian carp soup in his life.
But what people did not expect was that not long after drinking this bowl of crucian carp soup, the baby had skin rashes and white foam in the mouth.
The family rushed the child to the hospital, and finally found that the fish soup caused the child's allergy, and the child's allergy is not a trivial matter, if it is not treated in time, it is likely to cause a series of adverse reactions, which threaten the child's life and health.
Is it necessary for the family to hold a "meat opening ceremony" for the baby?
The opening ceremony is a folk custom, and its existence is more of a spiritual blessing from the elders to the younger generations.
In the meat opening ceremony, the family can pass on the love and blessing of the child through the interaction with the child, and can also promote family affection through this move, so emotionally speaking, this sense of ceremony is very necessary.
However, from a healthy point of view, parents should add complementary foods for their children after the baby reaches 6 months old, and the process of adding complementary foods should also be gradual, and meat is best made into surimi, avoiding seafood, river fresh and other foods.
If parents add meat to the baby around three months old, it is likely to cause indigestion in the baby, and this sense of ritual has become a pit baby operation.
In addition, on the issue of parenting, parents must adhere to scientific feeding, although many elderly people's original intention is for the good of children, but the practices and customs are lack of scientific basis, blind obedience to the elders will only make children bear too many health risks.
In this regard, for the sake of the baby's health, young parents must learn to reject it rationally.
