1. What kind of milk powder can the baby drink to grow meat?
Often, My mother asks, my child does not grow meat, is it necessary to change the milk powder?
This question, first of all, must be clear about what is not long meat. Each baby has its own unique developmental patterns, and there is no need to compare with others.
You can refer to the "Growth Curve Standard Chart" issued by the World Health Organization to determine whether the baby's height and weight are abnormal. As long as it is within the standard curve range, it is healthy.
Milk powder provides the baby with the energy to grow, and in the case of the same amount of milk, the energy value of different milk powders is similar. But there are a few ingredients that can be noted for "gaining weight":
(1) the amount of lactose and other sugars added;
(2) OPO, natural milk fat, MCT and other ingredients that affect digestion and absorption. The better it is absorbed, the more it can "grow meat".
The baby is not old, and it may also be related to the disease, it is recommended to go to the hospital for special examination.
- What milk powder is more suitable for Chinese babies?
You may often hear an advertising slogan saying that so-and-so milk powder is "more suitable for the physique of Chinese babies", or designed for Chinese babies and the like.
But this kind of advertising advice is good to listen to, don't take it seriously. Why?
First, as mentioned above, milk powder is born by imitating breast milk, which is more suitable for Chinese babies and implies a meaning closer to Chinese breast milk.
But "Chinese breast milk" is not a standardized thing, and breast milk may be different for different races, regions and times. Moreover, the research and database construction of breast milk in China is not currently advanced.
- More suitable for Chinese babies, the implication is that foreign brands or foreign milk powder is not suitable for Chinese babies.
However, through data analysis, we can find that the Guobin version, that is, the original can of foreign brands imported from customs to China's milk powder, follows the Chinese national standard, and the formula ingredients are similar, which can also be said to be suitable for Chinese babies.
The overseas version of milk powder, from the data comparison, does have some nutritional requirements that are different from those in China, but this differentiation is not large enough to affect health or intelligence.
3. Which milk powders can reduce your baby's constipation?
Many mothers ask, the baby is constipated, which milk powder to change?
First of all, we must clarify two problems: First, we must clarify whether the baby is really constipated. Second, whether constipation is caused by milk powder.
Many mothers treat their baby's occasional difficulty in pulling the stool, or not pulling the stool for several days, as constipation. But in fact, it may be that "stomach saving" and flatulence are regarded as constipation.
The criterion for judging constipation is: difficulty pulling stool + dry stool knots, like sheep, and the baby's spirit is not good.
There are many reasons for constipation: the baby eats too little, the milk powder is too thick, the picky eater does not eat fruits and vegetables after eating complementary foods, and the calcium and iron agents given to the baby may lead to constipation, in addition, disease and tension, anxiety can also lead to constipation.
If it comes down to the cause of milk powder, you need to pay attention to the "palm oil" component that exists in some milk powders, palm oil is easy to saponify with calcium, which may increase the chance of constipation in your baby.
However, if the milk powder uses OPO structural fat, or natural milk fat as the main source of fatty acids, the risk of constipation will be reduced.
4. When the baby pulls the green poop, which milk powder should I drink?
Babies pull green poop, many mothers will think that it is a problem of milk powder, want to change milk powder. But in fact, this is not the case.
There are several main reasons why babies pull green stools:
1. For physiological reasons, bilirubin in the bile becomes bilirubin in the acidic environment of the intestine, and the stool discharged will be light green, which is a normal physiological phenomenon.
2, the baby is hungry, hunger makes the baby's intestinal peristalsis faster, there may be a thinner green stool.
3, milk powder or complementary food contains iron, the baby's digestion and absorption of iron is not sufficient, divalent iron oxidation will lead to green stools.
4, eat more green vegetables or fruit puree in the complementary food, sometimes the stool is green.
5. Cold and cold. Colds can speed up intestinal peristalsis and may also cause green stools.
In general, green stools have little to do with milk powder.
If the baby does not suddenly have a significant increase in the number of green stools, and at the same time the stool has mucus and foam, there is a fishy smell, and the baby's mental state is not good, no special intervention is required.
