Many families believe that babies are already over one year old and start weaning and eating adult food. Whether or not to drink milk powder, there are many nutrients in food that can meet the needs of baby development. But the baby's digestive system is still weak, so it is necessary to continue drinking milk powder. So let's learn together whether it's better to eat milk powder or food after the age of one?
When a baby is over one year old, it is important to drink milk powder while eating. Both are equally important. When mothers can feed their babies again, such as giving them formula in the morning and evening, the rest of the time is mainly focused on complementary foods. The nutrition in milk is still very rich, and complementary foods can make babies feel full. However, babies cannot eat too much complementary foods, and the nutrition is not comprehensive enough. The nutrition in formula milk is relatively comprehensive, and they are all essential foods that babies cannot lack.
After the baby is over one year old, if they drink too much milk every day, it will affect the intake of other foods, leading to a decrease in the demand for other foods. Over time, there will be a phenomenon of partial eating and lack of appetite. In addition, it may also lead to excess heat in the body, causing obesity, and so on. So when a baby is over one year old, the amount of formula should be controlled, and the amount of complementary foods should also be fed according to their needs. At this stage, babies have particularly strong learning and imitation abilities, and can already eat on their own. Mothers can prepare special utensils for babies to cultivate their ability to eat independently.
For baby feeding, mothers should feed their babies in a reasonable way. In addition to drinking formula, they should also prepare various types of food for their babies to eat. Improving a baby's interest in eating can achieve comprehensive nutrition. Once the baby's nutrition is absorbed well, their body will naturally develop healthily.
