The first solid foods as an important step in the lives of parents and children, sometimes adults are experiencing more stress than babies. In this case, commits a gross error, trying to make things right. So, the first solid foods - and a situation often faced by mothers.
Error One: Panic
"When you enter the lure? After all, we already 6 months and 3 days, and the neighbor is already in full feed his six-month-daughter zucchini. We lag behind! "- breaking into hysterics, screaming into the phone, my sister, my mother became very properly after birth.
And only when it could result in a calm state, I learned that the neighbor and the truth "ahead" of them, but simply because the kid sister is not ready for the introduction of complementary foods. And the conclusion was made on such grounds:
• Only the child was vaccinated (and as we know, nothing new, including in food, in this time, the child should not appear). Typically lure advised to be administered 1-2 weeks following vaccination;
• the baby coughs. And the first rule of feeding states: only a healthy child should accustom to adult rides. Only when the baby will recover, it is possible to treat the first puree, for example, vegetable;
• parents' desire to introduce solid foods in a minute - it's great, but first it is necessary to calm down and still in the normal state of mind, a good mood and without fanaticism to start solid foods. And even if the baby refuses the first day to try your "snacks", do not be upset tomorrow or the day after he would show curiosity!
Error two: the lure of "do not go"
After weaning the baby zucchini my friend tummy ache: the baby was crying all the time, and his mother immediately said - no more lures!
In this case, my mother had the same calm and persuade. A week later, make another attempt to lure, but this time with a different product - instead of broccoli zucchini. And it's okay if the first acquaintance with an adult meal did not go smoothly - it does not matter.
Error Three: The wrong choice of products
On what products are best to choose for the first feeding, written plenty of articles. And we talked about that, too. A mother is still listening to the older generation and begin to stuff the kids a variety of products that ventricle baby can not digest. For example, apple juice in the months of age, bagels - in three-month, semolina on whole milk - in five months... And well, if the baby will react to them only disgruntled cry, as if there is no problems with digestion? Therefore, it is worth to go the more traditional route, starting solid foods with the most neutral products: vegetables, cereals, fruit.
And the last advice mothers to think about complementary feeding: grandmothers recommendations, mothers, neighbors listen and solutions that will benefit your child, take yourself. And then your baby will be healthy!
