After the baby is born, if the mother has breast milk, it is best to breastfeed because the nutrients contained in breast milk cannot be compared to formula milk. But if the mother does not have breast milk or cannot breastfeed due to work, she can still be fed with formula milk. So do babies with formula milk have a period of aversion to milk? Next, let's share together.
Do babies with formula milk have a period of aversion to milk
During the period of physiological aversion to milk, not everyone will have it, this is only a phenomenon that some children may experience. Not only babies who eat formula may have it, but babies who breastfeed may also have it. After four months, if the baby has a aversion to milk, they can add some complementary foods appropriately to change their taste, and perhaps the baby will like them.
How to deal with baby's aversion to milk
1. Change feeding method
The previous feeding method may have been punctual and quantitative, but now it's different. If the baby doesn't want to drink milk, then parents shouldn't force the baby to drink it. From now on, parents can adopt a flexible feeding method and feed their babies when they need it.
2. Don't change formula too frequently
Babies of different ages require different types of formula, but it is best to drink the same type of formula at the same age. Baby's aversion to milk is not due to their dislike for this formula. If parents replace formula too frequently, it will only make it difficult for the baby to get used to and the food will become even harder to pick up.
3. Creating a comfortable drinking environment for milk
A large part of the factors that make babies dislike milk are due to the uncomfortable process of drinking milk, including the appropriate temperature and humidity of the external environment, whether the environment is noisy, whether the diapers are cleaned, and so on.
The above shared whether all baby formula babies have a period of aversion to milk. Baby aversion to milk varies from person to person, and it is not only found in babies who drink formula. Generally, aversion to milk only occurs at a certain stage. If the baby is already 4 months old, they can be given some complementary foods such as vegetable puree, fruit puree, etc., with different flavors, which can also alleviate the baby's aversion to milk.
