What should I do if my 10-month-old baby refuses to eat milk powder?

It is difficult to take care of a baby who is born this month. Many problems may occur, which are very difficult for new parents to control. Especially when your 10-month-old baby does not like to eat milk powder, you will be very panicked, because this means that your baby may have developmental problems. So try to improve your baby's appetite, otherwise it is likely that your baby will suffer from anorexia, which will make the situation more serious.

(1) Various types of supplementary foods have been reasonably added some time before weaning.

(2) As the gastrointestinal digestive function of infants is poor after weaning, their diet cannot be the same as that of adults. It is necessary to gradually add new varieties of complementary foods to the original complementary foods that infants are accustomed to eating, so that infants have a process of adaptation.

(3) When infants are weaned, their original milk-based diet should be gradually changed to one based on grains, meat, vegetables, etc.

(4) Be sure to choose foods that are soft, easy to digest, economical, and nutritious.

(5) The cooking method mainly involves chopping and cooking, and the most common methods used are boiling, simmering, stewing, roasting and steaming.

(6) Do not feed babies only rice with soup. The soup only adds flavor but lacks nutrition. It is also easy for babies to swallow it whole, which affects digestion.

(7) Meals can be eaten five times a day, including breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with an additional snack at 9 a.m. and after a nap. As the baby grows older, you can switch to 4 meals.

(8) Breakfast should be larger than each meal. Because babies have the best appetite after waking up in the morning and can eat more, lunch should be the largest amount of the day, and dinner should be light to facilitate sleep.

However, because breast milk is one of the sources of the baby's resistance, after weaning, you should pay attention to enhancing the baby's resistance. You can give the baby colostrum, such as Life Sunshine Colostrum. In addition to being rich in high-quality protein, vitamins, minerals and other nutrients, it is also rich in active immunoglobulins, which can inhibit the reproduction of bacteria.

Therefore, you need to adjust according to your baby's condition. You can change their milk powder, or choose milk powder with a flavor they like more. This will improve their appetite. And when the baby does not want to eat milk powder, you can't force it too much, otherwise it will cause them to have a rebellious mentality. You can let them eat smaller meals more often.
