Weaning is a very important experience for both mothers and children. Many children have a strong dependence on their mothers, so weaning is not easy. Mothers are worried about their children getting angry and want to choose a more reasonable method to breastfeed them. Let's take a look at how to breastfeed their children together?
1. Psychological preparation: In order to facilitate a smoother weaning process for the baby, the mother needs to have a firm attitude and not repeatedly weaning the baby due to temporary discomfort. This will cause unnecessary physical and emotional trauma to the child. At the same time, it is also important to reduce the frequency of breastfeeding. The best way to use it is to gradually reduce it, such as feeding 4 times a day to 3 times a day. After the child adapts, reduce it again to extend the lactation interval.
2. Reasonable weaning: During the day, it can better shift the child's attention and weaning is relatively easy. After successfully weaning during the day, the frequency of breastfeeding for the child is gradually reduced at night, allowing the child to have a process of gradual acceptance.
3. Soothe the child's emotions: When the child is upset due to weaning, the mother should calm the child's emotions and not distance herself from them, which can exacerbate the child's anxiety. At the same time, family members should also provide support on the side, which will make weaning smoother.
4. Prepare complementary foods: Before weaning, parents should make preparations, understand the principles and sequence of supplementing complementary foods in advance, and not rush for their children's complementary foods during weaning. By helping children better accept new foods and reducing their breast milk intake step by step, they can achieve better weaning.
