What should I do if my 4-month-old baby has a poor appetite?

Some babies have problems with poor appetite, which seriously affects the baby's safety. Therefore, the baby needs to pay attention to timely treatment to avoid situations that affect the baby's safety. Especially for 4-month-old babies, the appetite problem is very important. So what should I do if a 4-month-old baby has a poor appetite? Let me introduce it to you below.

The poor appetite of 4-month-old babies is related to a variety of factors such as weak spleen and stomach, lack of trace elements, and eating habits. Strengthening the spleen and stomach has a certain effect

Suggestions: You can take appropriate zinc supplements, which can help restore the sensitivity of taste buds and increase appetite, so you can give your child some zinc gluconate oral solution. At the same time, you can give your baby appropriate Chinese patent medicines that strengthen the spleen and stimulate the appetite, such as Children's Compound Chicken Gizzard Powder, Children's Digestive Tablets, Children's Food Granules, etc. It is easier said than done to cultivate good eating habits for babies. It starts from childhood, with the addition of complementary foods. Babies need to be allowed to slowly get used to and adapt to foods of various flavors. You can cook the food in different ways, make it look good, and so on.

The main symptoms of zinc deficiency in babies include: anorexia, reduced taste function, reduced food intake, and weakened digestive ability. Weak spleen and stomach, sallow complexion, fatigue, thin body, anorexia or refusal to eat, or undigested residue in stool after eating a little more, unformed stool, easy sweating, and frequent colds.

Rehabilitation guidance: Zinc supplementation. If the child is too young, it is recommended to take liquid medicine. Let your baby drink plenty of water and eat more fresh fruit and vegetable juice. Eat three meals at regular times and in regular amounts, and don't overeat. You can give your baby some infant spleen-strengthening powder and lactobacillus tablets.

The above is my opinion on this issue. If your baby is feeling unwell, you should pay attention to timely diagnosis so that you can discover your baby’s condition and then carry out appropriate treatment. This will help avoid dangerous situations for your baby. Finally, I wish your baby a speedy recovery.
