One year old is an important watershed for children's growth and development, children before the age of one is mainly drinking milk, his growth and development is also very fast, in just one year, the child's height increased by 25 cm, and the weight increased by 14 pounds!
From the age of 4 to before puberty, the child's height also increases by about 5 centimeters per year, and the weight increases by about 3 to 4 pounds.
This is equivalent to the growth rate of children before the age of one, 4-5 times that after the age of 4!
Although the growth rate of children has dropped after the age of one, the development of large movements, the development of brains, and the speed of learning are also growing rapidly, and children are slowly moving closer to adults, so children's feeding is also very important.
The feeding of the child after the age of one determines how tall the child can grow in the future, which affects the child's brain development.
After the age of one, as long as the child is fed, as long as the parents can answer these three questions, they cannot be wrong
Question 1: Drink more milk or eat more after the age of one
After the child reaches the age of one, the teeth can grow 6 or even 8, at this time the child's chewing ability is already relatively strong, so it is necessary to give the child more food.
After the child is one year old, the proportion of meal energy supply reaches 50% to 70%, so the child eats more.
Children drink about 500 to 600 ml of milk a day and eat at least three meals a day.
Therefore, mothers must find ways to make a variety of nutritious foods for their children, so that their children can eat well in order to grow tall.
Question 2: Does your child drink milk or milk powder?
In fact, if the mother has the time to breastfeed exclusively, it is recommended that the child continue to drink breast milk after the age of one.
The World Health Organization recommends that children be exclusively breastfed until they are two or even two and a half years old, before being naturally weaned.
In real life, many mothers have to go to work or for other reasons, there is no way to breastfeed their children for so long, and most one-year-olds have been weaned.
At this time, the most troublesome point for mothers is: give their children pure milk or milk powder?
If the child's complementary food is added very well, eating three meals a day can be full, and only drinking about 500 ml of milk per day, then you can give the child milk to drink milk at this time, and you can also give the child milk powder.
To consider the cost performance and the exercise of the child's gastrointestinal tract, you can consider giving the child milk.
Question Three: Which milk is better to drink
There are also three options for drinking milk:
The first is to choose low-temperature pasteurized milk for children, which is relatively fresh after 5 to 7 days of low temperature storage, and is generally supplied by nearby dairy farms.
The second to choose high temperature instantaneous disinfection of the child room temperature milk, the shelf life is half a year to a year, you can drink imported, you can also drink domestic, the selectivity will be stronger, and the storage is more convenient.
The third choice for the child is kefir, and the kefir can be considered fermenting with pure milk plus lactic acid bacteria, and there is no additive in a small amount of sugar.
If you want to choose yogurt sold in the supermarket for your child, choose as little sugar as possible and less additives.
How to choose your child's milk? Do 3 o'clock and you can choose good milk
★ Milk powder chooses "three noes"
The national standard for three-stage milk powder is to allow the addition of flavor and white sugar, so some milk powder is delicious and sweet to drink, and children love to drink, but there are not many benefits for children's teeth and physical health.
It is recommended to look at the ingredient list for your child's milk powder, preferably without these three ingredients:
The first type is refined sugar
For example, white sugar, or corn solid syrup, maltose.
The second type of edible flavor
An edible flavor may be called an edible flavor, or more likely it will be called vanillin, ethyl vanillin, or an edible spice.
The 3rd palm oil
Vegetable oil will be added to the milk powder to adjust the fat content in the milk powder, but it is recommended not to choose a calcium soap containing palm oil, which is easy to form with the calcium of the milk powder, which is not conducive to the digestion and absorption of the child.
★ When choosing milk, be sure to choose the ingredient list with only three words
When choosing pure milk, be sure to choose the ingredient list only "raw milk" these three words, it is best not to choose containing water, or a variety of additives, such milk purity is low, is not conducive to the growth and development of children.
★ Choose kefir to choose low sugar with few additives
Choosing kefir for your child can help regulate the gastrointestinal tract, but be sure to pay attention to choosing as little sugar as possible, that is, a slightly lower carbohydrate content, and as few additives as possible in the ingredient list.
Children eat more after the age of one, but they can not be weaned, learn to choose good milk in order to let children eat well, grow taller and smarter.
