What issues should pay attention to infant feeding

<

The correct connection between the baby's mouth and nipple is the key to ensuring milk inhalation. The baby should be kept in the majority of the areola, and the breast tissue under the areola, including the milk sinus area where milk is stored, also contains the entrance cavity.

After the baby holds the breast tissue, it stretches in the mouth and forms a “long nipple”, while the nipple only accounts for 1/3 of the “long nipple”. At this time, the baby's tongue protrudes forward to cover the gums and is hooked around the part of the breast sinus. In this way, it is the mother's partial breasts and not just the nipples that can be called proper nipple convergence.

If the baby sucks the nipple and does not contain the areola, the infant's tongue is not squeezed into the milk sinus area where the milk is stored, and the milk is not eaten, so that crying often occurs. In fact, the baby's mouth is not well connected with the nipple. Therefore, from an appearance point of view, the correct connection of the baby's mouth has the following phenomenon: the lower jaw is in contact with the breast, the mouth is large, the lower lip is valgus, and the areola above the baby's mouth is more than under the mouth. The phenomenon of poor connection is as follows: The squamo doesn't touch the breast, the mouth is wide and forward, the lip does not turn outwards, and the areola above the mouth is just as much as the bottom of the mouth. Proper connection can ensure effective sucking; on the contrary, bad connection can cause ineffective sucking, milk can not be drained smoothly, breasts swell, eventually milk decreases, but also can easily cause rupture of the nipple skin, causing secondary bacterial infection.

After the baby is born 4 months later, simple breastfeeding can not meet the needs of the baby's growth and development. At this time, parents need to add other foods other than dairy products to the baby. These gradually added foods are called supplementary foods. The most common added foods are cereals, egg yolks, orange juice, fruit purees, meat purees, and vegetable puree.

1. From one to many

Do not add several complementary foods to your baby at one time, which can easily cause adverse reactions. Start adding only the same, if the baby does not have adverse reactions within 3 to 5 days, the defecation is normal, let the baby try another.

2. From liquid to solid

Complementary foods are added in the order of liquid foods - semi-liquid foods - solid foods. If you start by adding solid or semi-solid foods to your baby, the baby's stomach is unaffordable, hard to digest, and can cause diarrhea.

3. The amount from less to more

You can only feed your baby one or two spoonfuls at the beginning, then four or five spoons, and then a small bowl. When you start adding food supplements, feed them once a day. If your baby does not respond with resistance, increase the number of times slowly.

4. Should not eat liquid food for a long time

If you eat liquid or muddy food for a long time, your baby will miss the crucial period of development of chewing ability. The sensitive period of chewing is generally around 6 months. From then on, opportunities should be provided for the baby to learn to chew.

5. Supplementary food can not replace milk

Some mothers think that since the baby can already eat complementary foods, it is wrong to reduce the baby's intake of breastmilk or other milk from 6 months. At this time, the baby should still use breast milk or milk as a staple food. The supplementary food can only be used as a supplementary food, otherwise it will affect his healthy growth.

6. Stop if you are unwell

When you add complementary foods to your baby, if your baby has allergies, diarrhea, or mucus in your bowel movements, stop feeding the baby immediately and wait until it returns to normal (allergic foods cannot be added).

7. Do not add additives

Supplement food as little as possible or without salt and sugar, so as not to develop bad habits of the baby halophilic or sugar. It is even more inappropriate to add monosodium glutamate and artificial colors to avoid increasing the burden on your baby's kidneys and impairing kidney function.

8. Maintain a pleasant eating atmosphere

Choose to feed food supplements when your baby is happy and awake. When the baby says he doesn’t want to eat, don’t use coercion. Adding complementary foods to your baby is not only to supplement nutrition, but also to cultivate the baby's healthy eating habits and etiquette, and promote the baby's normal taste development. If the baby is frustrated when receiving food supplements, it will bring him many negative effects.

Low birth weight infants should pay attention to changes in body temperature care, preferably breastfeeding, can be added to the appropriate amount of liquid vitamins, pay attention to whether the child has anemia. Pay attention to cord care to prevent infection. If the care is meticulous, children's physiological indicators will gradually catch up with children of the same age. When feeding, pay attention to:

1. Breastfeed as much as possible. To enable low birth weight infants to catch up with normal infants as soon as possible, mothers should use breastfeeding as much as possible, but also find ways to increase their milk volume, and they cannot consider using milk instead.

2. If the mother's nipple is depressed and the child has difficulty in sucking, use a breast pump to suck the milk out. The breast milk can be squeezed out and placed in a boiled and sterilized cup. The pacifier must have a soft texture to help the baby's sucking. After feeding, raise the upper body with a small pillow and take the right lateral position to avoid suffocation caused by overflowing milk.

3. The number of times of human breast feeding can be flexibly controlled. The emphasis is not on time, as long as the baby cries for food and can feed. Poor sucking can properly shorten the interval between feedings, once every two hours, small and multiple feeding.

4. Artificial feeding should use diluted milk, milk and water ratio of 3:1, and then according to the proportion of 100 ml of diluted milk plus 8 to 9 grams of sugar deployment. Milk prepared in this way has less fat, more sugar, and is suitable for babies' needs. In artificial feeding, the total amount of feeding per day is generally one-fifth of the baby's weight. For example, a 2,000-gram baby should be fed about 400 milliliters a day. The number of daily feedings can be determined based on the weight of birth.

5. Development support nursing care for low birth weight infants: to create a quiet, comfortable, and conducive to the growth and development of children with a good environment, to minimize the stimulation of sound, light, invasive operation, reasonably placed comfortable position, twice daily oil Bath and touch to promote early recovery of children.
