One-year-old baby does not like to drink milk and related situations

It is normal for a one-year-old baby not to like to drink milk. When a child reaches one year old, it is actually time to eat. Many friends may still let their children drink more milk, but we also need to pay attention to some details. So the editor below would like to introduce to you the reasons and related situations about a one-year-old baby not liking to drink milk. If you need to know, let’s take a look!

1. After one year old, babies mainly feed on rice, and milk in moderation. If the baby eats more rice, he will need less milk. When the baby falls asleep at night, there is no need to wake the baby up to feed him. The baby's gastrointestinal function slows down during sleep and the digestion will be complicated. If the baby does not eat much, you can give the baby some appetizers, such as boiled hawthorn water, hawthorn porridge, or yam porridge, which can stimulate the appetite. In addition, you can appropriately supplement the baby with some appetizer powders.

2. In addition to lack of interest in eating, there are some other clinical features of a baby's refusal to eat or drink milk:

(1) Eat less and take longer to eat.

(2) Abdominal distension, hiccups, nausea, and vomiting after meals.

(3) The child is malnourished, with symptoms such as inactivity, anemia, and low immunity.

There are many reasons why babies refuse to eat, and there are roughly 6 reasons:

(1) Parents’ poor feeding behavior.

①The diet is monotonous and does not follow the rules of adding food.

② Force eating, use every possible means, including coaxing and deceiving the baby to eat more; insult, intimidate, threaten, and force the baby to eat more.

③ Eat snacks, sweets, fried foods, and drinks without restraint.

④ Irregular eating patterns, irregular times, irregular amounts, and irregular dining locations, etc.

⑤ Adults pay too much attention to the baby, and their anxiety affects the baby's mood for eating.

(2) The baby’s temperament is difficult to raise. A person's innate temperament type determines that it may be difficult for him to form good life habits, so parents can only be extra patient with such babies.

(3) The baby is allergic to certain foods. When a baby instinctively refuses to eat certain foods, adults must not force him to eat it, because it is very likely that the baby has eaten the food before and feels uncomfortable after eating it due to allergies, so he refuses to eat it.

(4) Certain diseases can cause anorexia. Diseases that may cause anorexia in babies include anemia, rickets, zinc deficiency, gastroenteritis, hepatitis, constipation, malabsorption syndrome, recurrent upper respiratory tract infections, recurrent diarrhea, etc.

(5) Improper use of certain drugs. Excessive vitamin A, excessive vitamin D, excessive or improper selection of antibiotics, excessive iron supplements, etc. can all affect appetite.

(6) Psychological factors Negative emotions will inhibit the brain's feeding center, causing decreased appetite and decreased digestion and absorption ability.

In fact, the reason why one-year-old babies don’t like to drink milk is very obvious, but it is normal for parents to feel that their children’s nutrition will not keep up. So here is the introduction to the reasons and related situations of one-year-old babies not liking to drink milk. I don’t know how much you know. The editor here hopes that your baby is healthy!
