Before the baby turns one year old, most of their daily development needs are obtained through breast milk or formula milk. However, by the age of one, simply eating these foods is no longer sufficient to meet the baby's daily nutritional needs. At this point, it is necessary to add complementary foods, and how to reasonably add complementary foods to the baby is also a gradual process.
1. Before this, the baby has already become accustomed to the taste of breast milk or formula. When the baby first comes into contact with things other than these foods, it is inevitable that they may not like them. At this time, parents should not rush to force the baby to eat, so as to avoid the baby's rejection of other complementary foods in the future; Of course, it's not that we won't add complementary foods in the future. We need to master the time and methods to add complementary foods.
2. When adding complementary foods, it is advisable to choose before drinking milk, so that the baby will not stop eating due to being full. Alternatively, after drinking milk, it is best to try feeding two or three bites one hour after drinking milk. It is best to choose a new type of food in the early stages, so that you can better know which flavor of food your baby likes to eat.
3. When feeding complementary foods to babies, they should be added gradually, and the concentration of the food should follow the principle of increasing from thin to thick. As the baby ages, it gradually turns into a mud like substance, and finally becomes a soft solid food. The process of adding complementary foods to babies should not be rushed.
