The addition of complementary foods is very important for babies, laying a healthy foundation for their future growth and development. Breast milk is the best food for babies, but when the baby reaches 6 months old, the nutrients in breast milk are not enough to supplement the baby's needs. Mothers should start adding complementary foods to their baby. So, how to make baby food puree into a paste like texture?
Wash the meat that will be given to the baby, and if family conditions permit, buy a meat grinder for the baby to facilitate the mother in making various meat dishes for the baby. If there are no conditions, the mother will chop the baby into minced meat by herself.
The complementary foods added to babies must be suitable for their age group. At the beginning, the complementary foods added to babies should be small and thin, not too much or too thick. From one type to multiple types, from fine to coarse, from liquid to muddy to blocky. Start to give your baby some boiled Congee and noodles, add high-speed Rice noodles, various vegetable foams, fish, lean meat foams and bean products.
When a baby refuses to eat, the mother should give the baby some time to adapt and should not force the baby to eat. After one or two days, try feeding the baby again so that the baby will gradually accept it. Some mothers stop feeding their babies after they stop eating, which is not acceptable. They should keep trying to feed their babies until they feel like eating. Otherwise, it will cause malnutrition in the baby.
