Breastfeeding the baby means weaning the baby. Weaning requires the mother to pay close attention to it, otherwise it will affect the baby's physical and mental health. Weaning not only changes the feeding method, but also the baby's physical and mental health. So what should I pay attention to when breastfeeding my baby?
1. When weaning, mothers must choose the right season, such as spring and autumn when the temperature is neither too hot nor too cold. This way, babies will not experience overheating due to the influence of climate, and severe overheating can also lead to other diseases.
2. Weaning takes some time for the baby to adapt, and parents need to have patience to accompany the baby to adapt. When weaning the baby, they can add some other complementary foods appropriately, which will make the baby feel full and reduce the frequency of drinking milk. After a week, the baby may start to adapt, and after two weeks, the baby will gradually lose interest in breast milk.
3. When a baby is sick, they cannot be weaned. Weaning involves switching from one food to another. If the baby is sick, the unsuitable switch can worsen the baby's condition, especially for some digestive diseases.
4. At the beginning of weaning a baby, it is important to reduce the frequency of feeding. For example, if the baby usually feeds three times, it can be changed to two times. The difference should not be too much, otherwise the baby will not adapt. It is possible to attract babies by adding milk powder multiple times, as babies may gradually forget about breast milk if they feel it is fresh.
