For babies within 3 months of eating night milk should be less than 3 times, 3-6 months of baby is best in less than 2 times, greater than 6 months but less than 8 months of the number of times the child to eat night milk should be less than 1 time, in the larger children should be able to control not to eat night milk, with the growth of children, eating night milk on the baby itself also has a bad impact, the most obvious point is to affect the child's rest and then affect the child's growth and development, the baby in the peak period of growth and development are carried out in sleep, Feeding night milk will interrupt the child's sleep, so it leads to the child's growth and development; if the baby develops the habit of eating night milk, with age, this habit is difficult to correct; in addition, eating night milk will also have a certain impact on the child's teeth, eating milk at night, for the child who is growing deciduous teeth, there will be some milk left on the baby's teeth, which is not hygienic and causes the child to grow caries.
A little tip about quitting milk
First, feed your child during the day
The baby's attention will focus on other things as they grow older, so when feeding during the day, we will find that the baby is always absent-minded, or half of the food will be attracted to other sounds or things, resulting in not eating much during the day, since the amount of milk eaten during the day will of course be made up at night; so during the day, mothers must breastfeed in a quiet room, in addition, during the day can appropriately increase the time to feed, let the child consume more breast milk, so as to reduce the number of times the child eats milk at night.
Second, add complementary foods to children in time
When the child in 4-6 months can be appropriate to add some complementary food, this time as the child continues to grow up, the appropriate addition of complementary food first can make the child consume more nutrients Second can also make the child more full, reduce the number of night milk at night.
Third, the baby wakes up at night to comfort more
When the baby wakes up at night, the mothers do not directly hug over to feed, some children may not be hungry, is the need for a sense of security, you can be more soothing, if you come up to the child to breastfeed, even if the child is not hungry will develop the habit of eating night milk.
Fourth, Bao Dad's appearance has a miraculous effect
Quickly give the baby night milk at this time needs to be the father to appear, the baby wakes up at night crying, the mother can hide in another room, why say so? Because the mother's body has the smell of milk, the baby smells but can't eat it is also very cruel, and the fathers can coax the baby more at the stage of quitting night milk, so that the baby can gradually quit relying on the mother.
