Parents should provide suitable nutrition for each child's critical growth period, especially if the baby in infancy does not get rich nutrition, it will have a great impact on the subsequent physical development.
Appropriate addition of complementary food is very important, which can not only provide nutrition, but also exercise chewing ability. Generally speaking, the baby can eat some digestible food when he is four months old, such as iron-containing rice paste and vegetable juice, and can eat some semi-solid food when he is half a year old, such as fruit paste and vegetable paste. After seven to nine months, you can eat soft and chewy ingredients, such as noodles and porridge. When the baby is one year old, it can be based on solid complementary food.
When adding complementary food, pay attention to liquid food, then soft food, and finally solid food. In terms of quantity, it will gradually increase from less to more. Let the baby try it first, and when it's not allergic, you can get used to adding other kinds of ingredients slowly. The increase of complementary food can not only supplement the baby's nutrition, but also play a good role in the baby's chewing ability, which is very beneficial to the growth of teeth.
The added food should be diversified in order to provide adequate nutrition. The food your baby eats should be diversified and not too single, otherwise it will easily lead to the bad habit of picky eaters. So in infancy, babies can try different ingredients, which can not only supplement rich nutrition, but also prevent the problem of partial eclipse. The order of adding food should start with starch food, then vegetables, fruits and finally meat food.
It is best for cereal ingredients to contain iron, such as nutritious rice flour containing iron, then gradually add some fruit juice and mud made of vegetables, then fruit juice and mud, and finally give the baby some meat sauce, custard, fish and other foods. The order of adding meat should be to eat egg soup first, then add minced fish mud, then you can eat the whole egg, and finally you can add meat foam. It should be noted that foods containing protein can only be eaten after the baby is one year old to avoid allergic reactions.
The addition of complementary food is also skillful. Parents should pay attention to the fact that the complementary foods added by babies of different months are also different, so they must pay attention to the health of their babies. Babies from four months to half a year old should start with liquid food and then gradually add semi-liquid food. Egg yolk must be eaten after half a year old, while protein can only feed it after one year old.
At seven to nine months, the baby is already very familiar with the taste of food. At this time, food can change from small to soft, and semi-liquid ingredients can become solid food. For example, yolk mud can be turned into custard, and broken food can also be made into small pieces of food.
Babies from ten months to one year old should not only supplement nutrition, but also exercise chewing function, so that the muscles of teeth, jaws and face can be well exercised, which can also play a good role in gastrointestinal and digestive functions. At this time, you can change the food from porridge to soft rice, and change the cooked noodles into steamed buns and jiaozi. At this time, you can also eat some minced meat and other foods.
Babies in infancy need to provide nutritious and comprehensive ingredients in order to lay a good foundation for later growth and development. Only diversified foods can play an important role in the development of height. Different foods not only have different tastes, but also can exercise the baby's chewing function, help the baby digest better and promote the development of gastrointestinal tract. Don't miss the best period of your baby's physical development, and regret it.
