Introduction: Overfeeding is harmful to children, when these signals appear, parents should not force feeding
When raising children, most parents have this mood, always afraid that their children will not have enough to eat, I don't know if you are like this? Loving children can be understood, but it must not be reflected in this aspect, otherwise it is easy to cause overfeeding, which is originally kind, and the result is to hurt the child.
What is overfeeding? It means that the amount of food eaten is greater than the demand, that is, eating too much. So what are the effects of frequent overfeeding on children?
First of all, there will be indigestion, manifested as bad breath, diarrhea, loss of appetite, etc., if long-term indigestion, will let the child endure suffering, not to mention, but also affect the growth and development, the development is easy to lag, very unfavorable to the child.
The second is that the child will become abnormally obese, after this situation occurs, it will not only affect the child's appearance, but also easily cause the probability of some diseases.
Excessive feeding is harmful to children, parents should be careful, when the child is full must not be fed, care about the child does not need to do this, can start from other aspects, such as children can already eat complementary food, you can change the pattern, so that the supplementary food becomes innovative, comprehensive nutrition, children see like to eat, help to grow the body, this is better than letting the child eat harder.
How to judge that the child has eaten enough? When these signals appear, parents should stop feeding! If it is not stopped in time, the child will eat too much and become overfeed.
First, the child is very small can only eat the stage of breastfeeding, you can observe his state after feeding, if the child does not cry after eating, either asleep, or play with adults, which indicates that the baby has eaten enough, do not continue to feed.
When the baby is hungry, he is very serious when he eats, nothing can interfere with him, eat milk wholeheartedly, and when he is full, the speed of the baby's feeding will gradually slow down, and some babies directly do not eat. When the baby is full, he will be very satisfied, gently coax a little coaxed to fall asleep, it is not easy to wake up after falling asleep, or a little teasing to laugh, the mood is very good, see the baby like this, parents do not feed again.
At the same time remember the time of the baby's feeding, generally after eating at one time, at least two hours will not be hungry, if you frequently want to eat milk, it means that the milk is insufficient, the baby did not eat enough before, so that it will not be wrong to judge. In case of insufficient milk, the mother should change her eating habits in time, look at the milk situation, it is really not possible to mix feeding, let the baby eat a full meal, once full, it is not easy to cause overfeeding, otherwise repeated feeding, confused situation, the easiest to let the baby eat more.
Second, the child's bowel law is very normal, and there is no problem with the state of the stool, which shows that the child's digestion is very good, on the contrary, the stool is abnormal, indicating that there is a problem with digestion, so much is overfeed.
When taking care of the child, to observe his bowel movements, can not be too careless, from the defecation situation can intuitively see whether the child's digestion is good or not, if you find that there is a problem with digestion, do not feed and then feed.
Third, the child has clearly told the parents that they do not want to eat, in this case it is recommended not to feed, if forced to eat, it is easy to overfeed.
After the older children are full, he will tell the parents that they are full, but many times the parents do not believe the child's words, and always order the child according to their own will, and the result is easy to eat. In fact, don't be afraid that the child is not full, as long as he says that he does not want to eat, he can take the meal away, even if the judgment is wrong, it does not matter, the child is hungry do not give snacks, wait until the next meal to eat, hungry a meal is nothing. And it's not easy to overfeed.
In reality, some parents often care about chaos, either force feeding, obviously really full, but have to let the child eat some more, or do not adhere to their own bottom line, the child said not to eat, after a while to eat snacks, so it is difficult to judge whether the child has really eaten a meal.
When taking care of children, avoid overfeeding, for babies who only drink milk powder, parents remember the rules of the baby's milk drinking and the state of fullness, for babies who eat complementary foods, parents remember to eat complementary foods and then drink milk, the same observe the state of the baby after eating, he will send out some full signals, for children who eat, parents remember that children say that they are full, don't force it, and also try to let the children eat themselves, do not take the initiative to feed, so that it is not easy to overfeed.
Eating more is not the same as eating well, are you doing it right?
