What is the reason why the baby does not eat the nipple?

If the baby does not eat the nipple, it will be detrimental to the absorption of nutrients. Therefore, when facing this problem in the process of taking care of the baby, mothers are also worried, but they don’t know how to solve it effectively. Therefore, facing this situation, the most important thing is to understand the reason. In this way, we can correctly help the baby solve the problem of not eating the nipple and supplement their nutrition.

First of all, the baby doesn’t refuse to eat, but is unwilling to eat. Even though the baby is only a few days old, he already knows how to compete with adults in wits. Once he finds that his persistence will lead to adults' compromise, he will become more persistent. This is why you can't spoil your baby.

If a baby gets used to a pacifier, he will dislike the nipple, just like a baby who gets used to a nipple will dislike the pacifier.

In comparison, once a child starts sucking on the nipple, he or she will no longer be willing to suck on the pacifier.

Relax and play with your baby more. Avoid force-feeding. Instead, try to give him the nipple when he is happy. Once he refuses, give up and try again after a while.

You can feed your baby the nipple when he is not too hungry instead of waiting until he is extremely hungry.

Don't continue to give him the bottle, or he'll likely refuse to nurse directly.

If he just won't eat from the nipple, stretch him. Don't worry about the baby being hungry; he will eat naturally when he needs it.

Many mothers will encounter this phenomenon, but they don’t know what solution to take, so naturally, it will affect the baby’s health. However, I hope that after introducing the above content, everyone can pay attention to it, ensure the healthy growth of the baby, and avoid malnutrition.
