"Only three months old children drink porridge?"
When the doctor hears the child's mother's words
I am also ignorant
The 6-year-old and 3-month-old boy is Haohao
Because of the family's unhealthy eating habits
Leads to long-term malnutrition
The height is 17 cm behind the average height of the same age
Recently, Shenzhen Children's Hospital welcomed such a "little patient" Haohao, aged 6 years and 3 months, he is only 102 centimeters tall and weighs only 16 kilograms.
The doctor said in the diagnosis that the average height of 6 years and 3 months should be 119 centimeters, while Haohao is only 102 centimeters, and the future height may only be about 150 centimeters. And according to the height prediction of the child's parents, the child should have been about 171.5 centimeters, which was more than 20 centimeters shorter...
"You've reached shortness, and you're shorter than short." The doctor warned in communication with Haohao's mother. Not only that, the doctor also found that Haohao had severe milk caries during further examination, which has a lot to do with the feeding habits of parents.
And in the follow-up communication, the parents' answers really made people raise blood pressure...
The mother was vegetarian during pregnancy
The child drinks porridge for 3 months
In the exchange with the doctor, the mother said that Haohao was born at 37 weeks pregnant and weighed 4 pounds and 8 taels.
"Because when I was pregnant with him, I was more vegetarian."
The doctor was shocked by this: "Don't you think there is a big problem with vegetarianism during pregnancy?" Nutrition definitely can't keep up. ”
But Haohao's mother's follow-up answer is more blood pressure, she said that in the feeding process within one year old, the child will eat rice porridge because of eating breast milk, and when it is only three or four months old, it has begun to feed the child porridge water. In addition, the in-laws' family is also vegetarian, and the child has followed the diet since childhood, "occasionally stealing a little meat food."
After chatting with Haohao's mother, the doctor diagnosed the condition and recommended that the child be injected with growth hormone, so that the child can grow 3 or 4 cm more every year to make up for the growth retardation caused by malnutrition.
"I actually don't want to fight because I always have the impression that hormones are not very good." After hearing the doctor's advice, Haohao's mother, like many parents, "smelled hormone discoloration" and repeatedly hesitated whether to vaccinate her child with growth hormone.
In this regard, the doctor explained that playing growth hormone is the best solution at this time, because the child's height lags too far behind his peers, and he can only rely on playing hormones to promote growth and close the gap. At the same time, he also warned Haohao's mother that if it is decided that it is best to decide within this half a year, the longer it drags on, the longer the course of treatment, the higher the cost, and there will be no regret medicine when the growth and development of the child is almost over at the age of twelve or thirteen.
At the end of the video, Dr. Jiao still advised Haohao's mother to think carefully and not let the children and parents regret their short height.
Netizen comment: Fist tightening when you see it
In the comment area of the video, many netizens commented on Hao Hao's mother's approach, believing that although vegetarianism is a personal choice, it should not be forced to make a vegetarian when the child has no choice, which is irresponsible behavior for the child and parents.
PRND21: This parent, see the fist tight...
Another cup of poplar nectar na: I watched this issue at station B last night, my blood pressure increased, I don't know where the remarks of breast milk on fire and vegetarianism come from, and why breast milk is not nutritious?
Custard shortbread: Ignorant and stubborn, it is really a crime to be a parent without a threshold.
North Lane De Chuqing: Vegetarian by yourself, but also only vegetarian for children?? Don't you know that children need nutrition to grow their bodies? The child is really pathetic.
There are also people who have also suffered from complaining in the comment area that their low height may have something to do with their single diet and vegetarian diet when they were children.
Liang Chensiyu: I guess I was too vegetarian when I was a child, so I wasn't so high.
Self-redemption young woman: It turns out that I am short because I don't eat meat.
Nan Keyao: I have a male classmate from a snack vegetarian, thin and short, who is younger than the other boys.
Coincidentally, in July 2022, the US media "New York Post" reported that a vegan mother fed her baby fruits and vegetables for a long time, causing an 18-month-old baby to starve to death. She was convicted of six counts, including first-degree murder and aggravated child abuse, and faces life in prison. Her husband faces the same charges.
In fact, most adults can indeed get the nutrients they need for life, including protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals, by eating a vegetarian diet.
However, if you don't pay attention to eating a balanced diet, eating only vegetarian food can lead to some health problems. For example, vegetarians may be deficient in certain nutrients such as vitamin B12, calcium, iron, zinc, and omega-3 fatty acids. These nutrients are abundant in meat, eggs, and milk, and if not consumed in enough, they can lead to health problems such as anemia, osteoporosis, and weakened immunity.
In addition, if you only eat vegetarian food, it may also cause digestive problems. Some vegetarian diets may contain high-fiber or hard-to-digest ingredients such as beans, tofu, and nuts, which may cause problems such as gastrointestinal discomfort or flatulence.
