Due to work reasons, many working mothers have no choice but to entrust the task of taking care of their babies to the elderly at home, so that they can work with peace of mind. But when elderly people take care of their babies, there are many things that can be frustrating for mothers, such as feeding their babies blind milk. Can the baby eat blind milk?
If the elderly at home are taking care of the baby, the mother must prevent them from feeding the baby blind milk. Because the elderly's breasts have been weaned for many years, there will be many bacteria on the nipples. If a baby is given blind milk, these bacteria will enter the baby's mouth. And the baby's oral immunity is very weak, these bacteria can pose a threat to the baby's oral health, and in severe cases, may even threaten the baby's physical health.
Long term feeding of blind milk to babies not only threatens their physical health, but also poses a threat to their psychological well-being. Because there is no milk in the elderly's breasts, even if the baby repeatedly suckles, they will not be able to extract milk, which will make them feel insecure and more prone to crying. It is not recommended to give babies blind milk, whether for the sake of their physical health or psychological well-being.
During the process of elderly people taking care of their babies, in order to avoid crying, a pacifier can be prepared for the baby. If the baby is already full and continues to cry, it means that their sucking needs have not been met. At this point, a pacifier can be helpful.
