How to solve the problem of baby suddenly not liking to eat milk powder

In fact, if such a situation occurs in daily life, we still have to find out the specific reason why the baby does not like to eat milk powder, so that we can directly find a solution. So let us learn about the solution to the problem that the baby suddenly does not like to eat milk powder, and how we should regulate the child.

Solution:

1. Choose the right pacifier

Although no matter how good the pacifier is, the feeling will still be different from drinking mother’s milk, you can choose a pacifier that is closer. I have given Ding Dang pacifiers from Anlene, Pigeon, and NUK, which have all received good reviews online. I feel that the yellow latex nipple of NUK is softer, and Ding Dang seems to like it a little more. In addition, Pigeon has a simulated pacifier, which is said to feel similar to drinking mother’s milk. We haven’t tried it and it is quite expensive. We are afraid of buying it and wasting it. If conditions permit, you can try it. Another suggestion is to boil the nipple for a while to soften it, and the baby may be more accepting of it.

2. See if the baby doesn't like the pacifier or the taste of milk powder

Try expressing breast milk and feeding it to your baby in a bottle. If he accepts it, he may not like the taste of formula. You can try a brand that tastes closer to breast milk. Dingdang is the type of baby who can use a pacifier to drink calcium-rich juice and other things, but does not like to use a pacifier to drink milk powder. She can clearly distinguish which one can be fed with a pacifier and which one should be fed from her mother. We tried changing several brands, but she was not very receptive to any of them. Of course don't change too much.

You can also try making the milk powder a little lighter or colder or hotter.

3. Add complementary food in time

At 2 months, they can drink fruit juice. At 4 months, they can eat complementary foods, such as rice noodles, egg yolks, liver meal, fish meal, and fruit puree, and then to vegetable and meat porridge, soft noodles, etc. After they can eat complementary foods, things will be much better, at least they can absorb nutrition from other aspects. Ding Dang has always been eating complementary food well. In fact, she eats everything except milk powder. A recent parenting magazine said that as long as the baby can absorb enough protein and other nutrients from other sources, there is no need to force him to drink a certain amount of milk a day. I felt relieved after reading this. However, eating too much complementary food will affect the amount of milk, so you should pay attention to this.

4. Give breast milk more confidence

If the baby is too young to eat complementary food, he should eat more breast milk. I believe that many mothers feel the same as I do, thinking that they have very little breast milk. In fact, you may have more breast milk than you think. When the baby is unwilling to eat formula, breast milk should be used more effectively.

The above article gives you a detailed introduction to the solution when your baby suddenly doesn’t like to eat milk powder. I believe you already have a preliminary understanding, so in daily life, if such a problem occurs, you must find the correct solution.
