First, how old is the best weaning for the baby, and provide the most suitable diet for the baby at the right time. Many mothers wean their children around half a year old for work reasons. In fact, this time period is not suitable for weaning children, because breast milk can provide physical nutrition for children, and at the same time, breast milk can also increase children's immunity and provide the most needed protection for their health.
So how old is the best weaning for children? According to relevant research, children can be weaned at the age of 8- 10 month, but the stage of complete weaning is from 10 month to one year old, because the growth and development of infants at this age can not meet the growth and development requirements only by relying on breast milk and milk powder.
Generally speaking, the baby will gradually increase the complementary food in the child's diet after half a year old. After the child is weaned at about one year old, the number and types of complementary foods need to be appropriately increased.
Second, you must be weaned at the "weaning age", because breast milk can't meet the physiological needs, which is not conducive to the baby's physical development. Babies from ten months to one year old can be weaned because their body needs more nutrients and energy. The nutrition in breast milk cannot meet the baby's growth and development needs. Some babies have begun to grow deciduous teeth, and the digestive enzymes in their stomachs are gradually increasing, so this age group is very suitable for weaning.
It is worth noting that when weaning your child, you must be prepared in advance. Weaning is the breakup between the baby and the mother, which will make the baby have great emotions. Therefore, we should pay attention to certain methods when weaning, and we should not forcibly cause great emotional harm to children. In the process of weaning, mothers give their children more care and love, so that the baby can be weaned in a caring and happy state.
Third, premature or late weaning is not good for the baby's physical development, so it is necessary to wean scientifically. Baby weaning at the right age is beneficial to psychological development. If the weaning is late, the Oedipus mood will become very serious, which will make it more difficult for the baby to drink only breast milk and not eat other foods except breast milk.
At the same time, not weaning the baby at the prescribed age will lead to serious nutritional imbalance. Therefore, weaning must be carried out scientifically, and the child's physical development cannot be damaged because of temporary weakness. You can choose the appropriate complementary food according to your baby's favorite taste. The increase of complementary food can be from less to more, from liquid to solid, and gradually reduce the number of breastfeeding until you are completely weaned.
To sum up, the weaning situation of each baby is different, so the weaning time is different. Some babies can quit breast milk in about three or four days, especially those who can't see their mothers for a while.
Some children may be very resistant to weaning, and mothers can't bear it because of their crying. Sometimes it takes months to wean successfully. In either case, let the baby do it with love and gentleness, so that the baby's psychological and physical growth is healthier.
