Breast milk is the best food for children, but as the child grows day after day, the mother must return to work. At this time, it is necessary to weaning the baby, which is also the first step towards independent living. Many babies cry and cry during weaning, which not only affects the baby's emotions but also constantly affects the mother's heart. So, how can a one and a half year old baby be weaned smoothly?
1. It is best to prepare for weaning before weaning. Weaning is most suitable in spring or autumn when the climate is not cold or hot. It is best for family members to choose a vacation to have time and energy to deal with the baby's crying. Communicate with family members in advance and work together to help the baby weaned.
2. Before weaning, parents should try to reduce the frequency of feeding their babies. In principle, if he does not take the initiative to breastfeed, parents should not take the initiative to breastfeed. When a child has a need to breastfeed, the mother cannot refuse. Without weaning, if the baby wants to breastfeed and the mother refuses, it will greatly hurt the baby's feelings, and she will feel that the mother does not love me anymore.
3. You can start weaning in two ways, each with its own advantages and disadvantages: if the mother leaves for a period of time and lets the family take care of the baby, she will definitely cry for a few nights. But you should communicate with your baby in advance and tell his mother that she is only going on a business trip and will be back in a few days.
4. If the mother is weaned next to the baby, tell the baby the reason why she cannot breastfeed him, such as when the mother is sick or rubbing soy sauce on the nipple. Some babies may stop eating, try more methods, and gradually the baby will make the decision to weaned.
