What should I do if a one year old baby doesn't drink formula after weaning

  After the birth of a child, doctors will instruct mothers to breastfeed their babies because breast milk is of good quality, fresh and hygienic, easy to digest, and economically convenient. At the age of one, mothers often plan to weaning their children and feed them with formula milk. However, mothers also face a problem: what if their one year old baby does not drink formula milk after weaning?

  

What should I do if a one year old baby doesn't drink formula after weaning1

  1. The attitude towards weaning should be firm

  Children are breastfed from birth and have long been accustomed to the taste of their mother's breast milk, which gives them a sense of security. When mothers breastfeed their children, they would resist with crying and fussing. At this point, mothers are prone to compromise, and once they compromise, their previous efforts will be in vain. Therefore, once mothers want to breastfeed their children, they must have a firm attitude.

  2. Replace breast milk with milk powder that has a similar taste to breast milk

  There are really a lot of milk powder on the market, and mothers don't know how to choose milk powder. In fact, when choosing milk powder, one should not have a herd mentality. Instead, one should choose the milk powder that is suitable for their baby. So, how should mothers choose the right milk powder for their baby? Mothers should consult more experienced salespeople in mother and baby stores to learn about the milk powder that is closest to the taste of breast milk. After comprehensive consideration, they can make a purchase.

  3. Feeding formula should adopt a gradual approach

  Children cannot immediately accept formula milk because they have been breastfed for so long and have already become familiar with its taste. If children become stubborn, it is really difficult to make them obediently drink formula milk. Therefore, mothers should let children gradually become familiar with the taste of formula milk. Over time, children will gradually accept formula milk.
