Useful Tips for Moms About Feeding

Start rationally with juices, vegetables and fruits. Moreover, one type of fruit or vegetable is introduced, gradually adding other components. Vegetable complementary foods can satisfy the growing need for a growing body in carbohydrates and fiber.

That is why most of the young mothers prefer to cook their own complementary foods - as soon as 6 months have passed, you can start cooking potatoes, cabbage and carrots. Everything is cooled, carefully frayed and given to the child. Such a simple "menu" has been tested for centuries ...

After the child learns to eat fruits and vegetables, porridge is gradually introduced. Complementary feeding begins with a small dose - half a teaspoon, after which the child is allowed to get enough of the usual food.

The consequences of too early feeding can be regurgitation, discoordination of swallowing movements, food allergies, constipation, diarrhea, and the risk of developing obesity.

The manifestations of late feeding include stunted growth, constipation, anemia, rejection of solid foods, impaired development of taste sensations, etc.

Timely introduction of complementary foods will allow the baby to avoid all of the above problems and grow healthy for the joy of their parents.
