What are the benefits of baby food supplement? The baby at home has been for five months. Many mothers began to add complementary foods to their baby at this time. What food supplements do babies eat for 5 months?
When the baby is between three and a half months to four months old, it is possible to gradually add complementary foods. The general principles are from one to many, from less to more, from light to thick, from liquid to solid, and from thin to thick. When your child is 4 months old, you can give your baby a good digestive egg yolk. At first, let the baby only eat 1/4 of the yolk, and gradually increase the amount later. Slowly increase your child’s intake of mud, meat (eg chicken, pork, and fish) and liver paste. If the child has iron deficiency anemia, you can make the jujube meat into the mud for the baby to eat.
1, milk
The staple food added to the 5-month baby food supplement is still mainly dairy, and milk can eat 200 ml each time.
2, semi-liquid starch food
Such as rice cereal or egg milk, etc., can promote the secretion of baby digestive enzymes, exercise your baby's chewing, swallowing ability.
3, egg yolk
Eggs are the most ideal nutritious foods for baby food supplements. Egg yolks should be added from the first 4 months and they should be fed once a day from 1/8→1-6/6→1/4→1/2→1 One, gradually increase the amount added. In the baby's digestive system is not yet well-developed, the antigenic substances in the eggs into the blood and the eggs in the antigenic substances do not exist in the egg yolk, so do not add protein when the food supplement, only add egg yolk.
4, fruit mud
Fruits such as apples, peaches, strawberries, or bananas can be scraped into the mud with spoons (the market sells fruit purees for infants and young children to eat), feeding them from a teaspoon to a teaspoon.
Why do babies want to add supplementary foods? Let's take a look at the benefits of adding complementary foods.
First, after the baby is full for 4 months, the nutrients obtained from the milk have gradually failed to meet the needs of growth and development. Some foods must be added in time to supplement the deficiency of nutrients in milk and help the baby grow up healthily.
For example, iron, 4 to 6 months old baby, the iron obtained from the mother's body has been basically used up, and neither the breast milk nor the milk iron content is insufficient, so at this stage the baby is prone to iron deficiency anemia, add assistance Food can supplement your baby with iron deficiency.
Second, it is to add supplementary food that can prepare the baby for weaning afterwards. The supplementary food does not refer to the food intake at weaning, but refers to feeding from a single breast milk (or milk) to complete weaning. Food added during the first phase.
Third, it is to train the baby's swallowing ability. Children who are accustomed to eating milk (fluid liquids) must gradually transition to eating solid foods. This requires an adaptive process. This process should take six months or longer. The baby must first eat a paste and soft food. At the beginning, it gradually adapts to solid foods that are close to adults.
Fourth, it is to train the baby's chewing function. As the baby grows up, the gums of the gum gradually become harder, especially after the incisors grow, the baby will use the gums or teeth to chew the food, and then swallow it, so timely addition of complementary food is beneficial to the training of the baby's chewing function, which is beneficial to the jaws Development and eruption of teeth.
