During the baby's growth process, the mother will pay special attention to everything about the baby, especially weight and height. When going to the hospital for regular physical examinations, the doctor will also check the baby's height and weight. If there is a phenomenon of exceeding or not meeting the standard, the doctor will give some guidance based on the specific situation. There are different standards for height and weight at different ages. Standard height of 6-year-old boy The normal height of a 6-year-old child should be 115cm. In addition, the child's growth must ensure adequate sleep and nutrition. Why is the baby's height and weight not up to standard? Exclusive breastfeeding After one year old, the nutrition of breast milk can no longer meet the baby's physical development needs, and breast milk alone will affect the baby's health. Therefore, it is necessary to make a reasonable ratio of breast milk, complementary food and other foods. Increased mobility The baby will gradually learn to walk, and his mobility will continue to increase. He will need more food to replenish his energy, and sometimes he may not get enough nutrition due to neglect by his parents. So plan to add enough calories to your food. Eating at irregular times Babies need to be fed regularly. If they wait until they are hungry to feed them, their appetite will be damaged. Sometimes, if the feeding time is delayed too long, the baby's appetite will be lost. So depending on the actual situation, try to eat at the same time every day. Poor food choices If your baby's food does not have enough nutrients and energy, it will not help him develop normally. For example, foods that are too low in fat; low in calorie foods (such as artificial desserts); low in nutrition foods (such as junk food and overly processed foods). To this end, we must pay attention to the balanced combination of food calories and nutrition. In addition, it is recommended to cook food using water as the medium, such as boiling, steaming, and stewing. Time is too short Some babies are not yet ready to eat by themselves, and it is a challenge for them to master eating skills while satisfying their appetite. Therefore, parents should try to arrange enough time for their babies to eat. If you keep urging your baby, he will not think about himself and will leave the table even if he is still hungry. Lots of pre-meal snacks Snacks before meals will make your baby's small appetite lose the mood to taste delicious food. Adjust the time of adding snacks: between breakfast and lunch, between lunch and dinner, and before going to bed. High water intake Some babies drink too much liquids (milk, juice, water), and there is no room in their stomachs for more solid food. They cannot get enough nutrition, so there is naturally a difference in weight. Suppress bad emotions Before or after a meal, if something unpleasant happens, such as the baby is unhappy playing games, or is scolded by his parents, or the dining environment is not pleasant (the stool is uncomfortable, the spoon is difficult to hold), it will affect his appetite. Bad habits Some babies are used to eating while watching TV or playing, and their parents always need to chase them to feed them. This not only makes them eat less, but also is not conducive to digestion and absorption. Therefore, the dining environment must be quiet, and external disturbances should be avoided as much as possible to allow the baby to eat with peace of mind. |
