    The baby's diet has always been a headache for parents, when the baby is a little older, many parents will add a certain amount of complementary food to the baby, but in the process of the baby's meal, it is often found that the situation is not chewed and swallowed directly, and then I will introduce to you, what should I do in this situation?

    First of all, we must know that when the baby is about 4 months old, parents can already add a certain amount of complementary food to the child, at this time most of the deputy positions are mainly pasty and muddy, at this time the baby does not have teeth, so it is directly based on swallowing, for the baby is slightly older, about 10 months when the teething begins to teeth, after teething, it is necessary to gradually increase the roughness and hardness of feeding the baby complementary food, so as to be able to train the child's oral chewing ability. Once the baby eats without chewing and swallowing directly, it is necessary to increase the child's chewing ability, increase the roughness of the food, and at the same time in life, parents can also imitate the child's chewing action in front of the child, and at the same time, when adding complementary food to the child, the child will also imitate the parent's behavior, so as to start chewing, so as to help the child alleviate this symptom to a certain extent, and finally do not directly give the baby some soft food in life, This will only aggravate the situation that the baby swallows directly, when the baby ingests a certain hard food, the baby will naturally chew, and he can't swallow it if he doesn't refuse.

    It can be seen that the baby's addition of complementary food is also a more important thing, at the beginning of the baby's age is relatively young, the complementary food should be mainly puree-like, such as some vegetable puree or melon and fruit puree are OK, so that the baby is slightly older can gradually prepare some porridge and noodles for the baby, which can help the baby exercise his chewing ability.

    Finally, it is inevitable that there will be some bad behaviors in the process of the baby's growth and development, and at this time, parents need to stop it in time and help the child correct it, otherwise it will be more difficult to correct it when the child grows up.

    In the process of infant growth and development, reasonable feeding will have a great impact on promoting the baby's physical development, increasing nutrition, increasing resistance, and even language function. If the feeding is not reasonable, it may lead to abnormal swallowing, unclear pronunciation, and even delayed language development in the future. Therefore, in the process of infant feeding, it is very important to add the right food at the right time to promote the child's oral movement.

    Under normal circumstances, you can start to adapt to the complementary food at 4 to 6 months, and start teething at 4 to 10 months, after teething, you need to gradually increase the roughness and hardness of the complementary food, and gradually train the child's oral chewing ability. Training the chewing ability of the oral cavity can not only increase the type of food, increase the amount of food, but also facilitate the movement of the oral cavity, and is conducive to the development of the coordination of the movement of the mouth, tongue and lips to promote the development of language development in the future. After the occurrence of the child's habitual non-chewing, and these swallowing situations are mainly due to the child's lack of chewing experience, or even lack of chewing ability.

    In such a situation, it is necessary to increase the child's ability to chew, increase the roughness of the food, and even let the child imitate the parent's chewing performance first. Gradually increase the child's chewing experience, try to avoid using some soft food, or do not use food that can be swallowed directly, increase the volume of food, try to let the child have a certain amount of chewing before swallowing, after the child's chewing function is gradually enhanced, you can gradually increase the hardness or roughness of the food, through this way you can gradually train the movement ability of the oral cavity, increase the chewing function.

    In the process of infant feeding, it is necessary to increase complementary food in time to increase the volume and roughness of food. Try not to give liquid food for long periods of time, as this will reduce your child's chance of chewing with oral movements.
