How do mothers need to wean their babies when they are mixed feeding?

Mixed feeding is when your baby is given formula at the same time as breastfeeding. Babies who are fed this way are more likely to wean than babies who are directly breastfed because they have some exposure to other foods and have some adaptability. Despite this, we still have to be more careful about the weaning period, which is a very important turning point for the baby, and if it is not handled well, it will not only cause damage to his body, but also have a certain impact on his mind.

First of all, parents who have made up their minds to wean must be firm in their will and not give up their efforts because of the baby's crying. It is important to understand that weaning is a gradual process and that your child's adaptation to other foods also takes a stage. And weaning should also be done slowly, slowly reduce the number of breastfeeding, if you suddenly do not breastfeed the baby, the child will feel abandoned, insecure, more crying, and will refuse other food, for his development is very bad.

When we choose milk powder, we try to choose a formula that is closer to the taste of Neng, and the milk gradually uses these milk powders instead of breast milk. While taking into account nutrition and taste, let children reduce the psychology of rejection and make weaning easier. In addition, you can slowly increase complementary foods, try more foods, and find complementary foods that your baby likes to eat, which can reduce his attachment to breast milk, and can also timely supplement nutrition and vitamins and so on.

Many babies will have the habit of drinking milk before bedtime, and we need to gradually reduce the number of times we feed our babies before bedtime. If the baby sees the mother, it is inevitable that he will cry and ask for milk, and he can try to let the father hold him to sleep before going to bed. If you are worried that he will be hungry, just give him milk powder or other complementary foods.

In addition, we should pay special attention to the baby's psychology, when the attachment between mother and child is broken, we should hold the baby more, let him know that he is not abandoned, increase his sense of security!

The best way to wean like ours is to isolate from the baby for a period of time, so that the baby is familiar with and accustomed to the weaning life.

In fact, it is relatively easy to wean a mixed-fed baby, as long as the baby is hungry, you can feed the formula, and then slowly wean the milk powder and feed some complementary food.

Resist not feeding the baby, and when the child cries, you can feed some milk powder appropriately. Both the baby and the mother should be comforted in time, otherwise it will cause harm to the mother and baby.

When mixed feeding, weaning the baby at the age of one year is very healthy, because at this time the baby's nutrition intake of complementary food is more balanced, and his teeth have better chewing ability, can better eat complementary food, at this time the weaning acceptance will be very good.

If the baby is to be weaned, he can be weaned at about one year old, especially if he is more suitable for complementary food or milk powder, weaning should be more convenient.

Children can be weaned when they are just over two years old, and feeding them some easily digestible foods at this time can help their bodies grow.

It is best after the age of 2, because the nutritional content of breast milk has declined after 6 months, and the nutrients required for the baby's physical development cannot be met, resulting in the child's body emaciation and malnutrition. In the process of weaning the baby, the intake of complementary food is the key, in the choice of food, we must choose easy to digest, preferably processed into pureed food, so that the baby will eat more easily digested, and also have a good auxiliary effect on the stomach.
