What are the misunderstandings about what complementary food to eat for ten-month-old babies?

When the baby is young, he can rely completely on breast milk and formula. However, if the baby is ten months old and still relies on breast milk and does not eat complementary food, it will have a certain impact on the baby's body. Normally, you can add complementary food to the baby after six months. There are also skills to add complementary food to the baby. Don't give it randomly. Below we will introduce some misunderstandings about what complementary food to eat for ten-month-old babies.

Myth 1: What parents eat, what babies eat

When adding complementary foods to babies, urban mothers often cook the food very thin and thin so that the babies can digest and absorb it easily; while rural parents tend to be "extravagant", letting the children drink some noodle soup and eat a few bites of vegetables while the adults are eating, and that is considered adding complementary foods. In fact, neither approach is good. Many mothers insist on exclusive breastfeeding from the birth of their baby to 6 months.

2. After adding complementary foods, wean off breast milk

After 6 months, many mothers see that their babies can eat vegetable puree, rice noodles and other foods, and they have to go to work, so they simply stop breastfeeding and let their babies eat rice noodles and vegetable puree instead. However, when I later took my baby to the hospital to check his physical development, he was found to be worse than other children of the same age. The doctor advised her to continue breastfeeding mainly and add complementary foods as a supplement.

3. Complementary food is noodle soup leaves and rice noodles. Babies cannot eat meat before 1 year old.

Cereals and starchy foods are easy to digest and absorb, and not easy to cause allergies. Many parents choose rice noodles, porridge, soup noodles and other cereals and starchy foods when adding complementary foods to their babies.

It is good that it is easy to digest and absorb, but it should be noted that the amylase activity in the baby's body is not fully mature within 3 months, and cereals and starchy foods should not be added too early, otherwise it will easily cause indigestion, affect the baby's absorption of breast milk, and may lead to protein deficiency and affect physical development.

The above content is an introduction to what complementary foods a ten-month-old baby should eat. I hope mothers will remember when feeding their children that no matter what they add, they must pay attention to feeding their babies complementary foods step by step. Never do it all at once. We have to wait until the baby has adapted to everything before we can feed the baby complementary foods for a long time.
