The only way for babies to receive nutrients is through diet. If parents have a comprehensive understanding of diet, babies can avoid many problems during their growth and development. At different age stages, babies require different nutrients, and parents should make appropriate adjustments to avoid developmental disorders in babies. So, let me introduce the food intake standards for babies.
1. Babies from 0 to 6 months old. Before the age of six months, if there is sufficient breast milk, there is no need to add any other complementary foods to the baby. Before the age of three, babies are usually fed according to their needs. By five or six months, the daily feeding amount for babies is about 1000 milliliters, with approximately 150 milliliters per feeding.
2. Six months to one week. At this stage of the baby's life, it is necessary to add some simple complementary foods to the baby. The addition of complementary foods should be mainly in small amounts, starting from one or two bites, to half a bowl less. Try to adhere to feeding as the main method, and feed the baby at least four times a day with about 200 milliliters of milk each time. Give the baby's digestive system an adaptive process.
3. After one year old. After the baby reaches one year old, add complementary foods once, with an approximate amount of about 200 grams, which can be added during the interval between two feedings, no more than three times a day, controlled at around 500 grams, with a feeding volume of about 250 milliliters per feeding, and no less than three times a day.
