By the time babies reach four months, breast milk will gradually fail to meet their nutritional needs.
Therefore, at this time, the mother usually has to start adding complementary foods to the baby.
However, in the process of adding complementary foods to the baby, many mothers will always complain: "Why don't you eat much in your own baby, and there is always a situation of accumulated food?" ”
In fact, there is a reason for the accumulation of food, which has little to do with the child eating more and eating less, and has a close relationship with the food eaten. "The supplementary food is not selected well, the accumulated food cannot run", the parents do not give the child to eat the right thing, then the child's stomach will be uncomfortable, resulting in the situation of accumulated food.
★ "Mother-in-law broth dispute", add complementary food to children, in the end do you want to give children to drink broth?
Recently, Xiaoli and her mother-in-law have been in the middle of the Cold War, the problem is in the "how to add complementary food to the child", it turns out that when the family eats at night, the mother-in-law chops the meat directly in the rice soup, ready to feed the child complementary food.
Xiao Li saw this scene and stopped her mother-in-law on the spot:
"The child is still young, feed him to drink broth, not only can not absorb, but also easy to cause the child to accumulate food."
After hearing this, the mother-in-law retorted on the spot: "I chopped it so badly, how can I not absorb it?" Who said it's easy to accumulate food, do you know or do I? My three children grew up without pulling like this! ”
Hearing this, Xiao Li stopped doing it on the spot, and said that her mother-in-law's concept was too old to be scientific parenting at all. The two quarreled directly at the dinner table, and the husband was also embarrassed to be sandwiched in the middle.
So, who is more reasonable, Xiaoli and her mother-in-law?
Add complementary foods to children, can you let children drink broth directly?
From a scientific point of view, Xiaoli's point of view is right, for children from half a year old to one year old, the spleen and stomach function development is not yet sound, not only can not absorb the nutrients in the broth, and once too much intake, the fat in the broth will also increase the burden on the child's spleen and stomach and liver, and may even cause the child to accumulate food and difficult to digest.
Moreover, not only can not drink except for the broth, children before the age of three, these kinds of complementary soups also try not to touch.
▲The first soup: fish soup
Many parents believe that fish soup is rich in nutrients and rich in calcium substances, and giving children fish soup will definitely make children grow tall and strong and develop better.
But in fact, fish is a high-protein food, for children who have just entered the stage of complementary food, the nutrients in it can not be absorbed at all. Once ingested, it may not only cause indigestion, but also cause allergies, and I hope that parents should be vigilant.
▲The second kind of soup: rice soup
I often hear older generations say:
"My children grew up feeding rice soup! Isn't it still healthy and strong? ”
In fact, the experience of the older generation like this cannot be fully believed. Because even if the child drinks rice soup as soon as he is born, there may be some developmental problems, and the elderly may have some memories of the past, but the memories are not completely coherent, and some conclusions are not true.
In white rice soup, in addition to carbohydrates, other nutrients are basically equal to zero. Children grew up drinking only rice soup, and in the appearance of fatness, most of them still hide malnutrition.
Of course, the rice soup here only refers to "rice soup", it is still okay for children to drink "millet soup", although it is a word difference, but the nutritional value of food can be far worse, parents should pay attention to Oh.
▲The third kind of soup: salty soup
Many parents always want to feed their children to eat some "salt", fragrant and more delicious, so they make a variety of complementary foods into salty, and even put some salt in the egg soup to let the children drink salty soup.
Although I want to be good for my child, eating salt too early is very detrimental to the child's kidney development. Therefore, do not add extra salt to the child's complementary food, otherwise, it is easy to hurt the baby's body, and parents should not take chances.
In the process of adding complementary foods to their children, parents must try to avoid the above kinds of "complementary food soups", which not only cannot supplement the child's nutrition, but also are likely to cause negative harm to the child's body.
As for how to add complementary foods to the baby correctly, it is enough for the mother to remember these points.
First of all, adhere to the principle of step-by-step
Add complementary foods to your child from less to more;
Add complementary foods to children from one to more;
From thin to coarse, from soft to hard, add complementary foods to children;
Adhering to these principles can never be wrong.
●Second, pay attention to retaining the natural taste of food
Add complementary foods to children, we must adhere to the principle of "pure natural", conservative additions should be remembered, parents must not try arbitrarily, such as giving children a bite of seafood? Give your child some salt? These are dangerous practices.
Although there may not be any problems once in a while, it will cause some damage to the child's physical health over time.
Spicy Mom Quotes:

You can consult other experienced mothers or ask the advice of parenting experts, and then combine your own child's situation and analyze specific problems, otherwise, it is likely to harm the child without knowing it.
