How to match breast milk with complementary food in baby diet

When the baby grows to 4-6 months, you can gradually add complementary foods, and you should follow the principles of starting from little to many, from thin to thick, and from light to strong, and using breast milk and complementary foods to match the nutritional needs of your baby.

1. Start by adding diluted milk (milk or milk powder) at the beginning. Add half a bottle in the morning or in the afternoon, or add half a bottle of milk before going to sleep at night, and breastfeed for the rest of the day. If half a bottle can not eat, can be reduced appropriately.

After 2 or 6 months, you can also feed a small bowl of diluted rice noodles before going to sleep at night, or mix half an egg yolk with rice flour paste, so that the baby will not wake up after a whole night of hunger, urine will also be reduced appropriately. Help mother and child rest and sleep. However, when feeding rice noodle paste, it is necessary to observe whether the baby does not think of breast milk for a long period of time. If so, reduce the amount or consistency of rice noodle paste, and do not let it affect the intake of breast milk.

After 3 or 8 months, add a little vegetable juice and an egg yolk in the rice flour paste, or feed some apple puree (scrap it out with a spoon), watermelon juice, a small amount of bananas, etc. in the middle of feeding. When the baby has a dry stool after eating milk, watermelon juice, banana, apple puree and vegetable juice will have the effect of softening the stool, but also can add fresh vitamins.

4, 10 months after the increase can be a rice flour paste feeding, and in the rice flour paste, add some minced meat, fish, meat, carrot mud, etc., can also be fed a small bowl of noodles properly. Milk can be fed in one bottle each morning in the afternoon. At this time, the nutrition of breast milk has gradually become insufficient. Breastfeeding can be appropriately reduced several times (such as every morning and afternoon), and the number of times of breast-feeding is gradually decreased with the increase of the age of the child. After transitioning to the age of the year, you can completely eat natural foods.
