What to do if children often have indigestion

Many parents do not know enough about the symptoms of indigestion, which leads to the inability to diagnose and treat the symptoms. This will seriously affect the physical and mental health and quality of life of infant patients. The main reason for frequent indigestion in children is that food is not easy to digest and food is not matched properly, or because the amount of food consumed is too large. So what should children do if they often have indigestion?

First, what should we do if children often suffer from indigestion? Correcting eating behavior is the fundamental thing. Eating is an eating behavior. Parents need to demonstrate and guide their children correctly during the eating process so that their children can develop correct eating habits and behaviors from an early age.

Second, eat at regular times and in regular amounts, and eat less snacks. It is very important to cultivate the habit of eating at regular times and in regular amounts in children. If you give children too many snacks, such as candy and biscuits, and their stomachs are not empty, they will not feel hungry at normal meal times. Parents can make their children aware that it is time to eat by using fixed times, fixed places, specific tableware and words. This is to give children a sense of eating through conditioned reflex. When the steaming hot food is placed on the table, they will realize that it is time to eat." Secondly, don't let children develop the bad habit of eating snacks.

Third, concentrate on eating and cultivate children's interest in eating. Eating requires concentration, and parents must help their children develop the habit of concentrating on eating. If a child does not like to eat, parents should cultivate the child's interest in eating. When eating, you can let the children participate by themselves, holding the rice bowl, taking the small spoon, and choosing the food they like. This way, the children not only learn how to eat, but also develop an interest in eating. Create a pleasant atmosphere for dining. When some children cannot eat or do not want to eat, their parents will fight with them or even insult and criticize them, causing the children to cry every time they eat. In this way, the child will subconsciously hate and be afraid of eating. Eating became an unhappy thing.

What should you do if your child often suffers from indigestion? Experts suggest that parents should, on the one hand, create a pleasant dining atmosphere so that children can eat happily, and try not to scold children at the dinner table, which will affect their mood for dining; on the other hand, if the child is unwilling to eat or doesn't want to eat, don't force him, just let him hungry, which is not a bad thing.
