What should I do if my two-month-old baby has a poor appetite?

A two-month-old baby is still drinking milk. If the baby cannot continue to drink milk or has a poor appetite, it means that the baby has some indigestion. At this time, some methods need to be taken to promote the baby's digestion. But how should we do it so that the baby can continue to drink milk? The editor introduces several methods to everyone.

1. No coercion

Many parents worry that their babies will not grow up if they drink too little, so they force them to drink. However, this approach will make the baby afraid of eating. During this period, parents should think about how to help their baby accept semi-liquid complementary foods instead of forcing him to drink milk.

2. Change the feeding method

When the baby shows signs of aversion to milk, parents can start by improving the feeding method and taking a more casual approach without having to follow a schedule. The principle is to feed small meals frequently and wait for your baby to eat when he wants to. You can consume your baby's physical energy through games, such as massage, physical activities, etc. When he is exhausted and feels hungry, his eating conditions will also improve.

3. Create a dining environment

The eating environment should be as gentle and quiet as possible. Because babies at this stage begin to be curious about the outside world, if someone teases him while he is eating, or there are many toys and sounds that can attract his attention, the baby will think that these things are more interesting than eating, and naturally he will not want to eat.

4. Don’t change milk powder frequently

If you see that your baby doesn't like to drink milk, parents can change to other milk powder, but the change should not be too frequent. After entering the milk aversion period, the effect of changing milk powder brand is limited. If there is no improvement after trying once or twice, you can give up using this method.

The above content is some methods that everyone has compiled for the editor about what to do when the baby has a poor appetite. I also hope that mothers will pay more attention to taking good care of the baby in normal times, because the baby's poor appetite will greatly affect the baby's normal growth and development. The editor sincerely hopes that your baby will become healthier and healthier.
