Many mothers have always had the habit of feeding their babies, and always feel that feeding their babies is more trouble-free and good for their babies, but in fact feeding their babies is not a good thing.

Especially the 4 misunderstandings that hurt the baby when feeding the baby, if the mother is doing this or thinks so, it is recommended to correct it as soon as possible!

4 misunderstandings about feeding your baby

Myth 1: Thinking that feeding is the right choice

Many mothers, especially the elderly at home, will be very anxious every time they see the baby eating by themselves, anxious that the baby will eat slowly, and anxious that the baby will get food everywhere.

In order to let the baby eat quickly and reduce the cleaning work, they will choose to feed the baby and think that feeding the baby is the right choice.

But in fact, this perception is wrong, feeding the baby is not the right choice, especially after the baby is 8 months old, the mother should reduce the feeding of the baby.

When most babies reach 7 or 8 months old, they will have the willingness to eat independently, and they will frequently grab spoons and food.

Moreover, the baby practices eating by himself or providing finger food to the baby, which can not only exercise the coordination of the baby's arms, fingers and eyes, but also mobilize the baby's enthusiasm for eating.

Myth 2: Chasing, coaxing to feed the baby

Some children have "difficult" to eat, and you don't coax them to eat at all, in fact, this is a bad habit that has been cultivated since childhood.

Many parents will use toys and cartoons to coax their babies to eat in order to eat well or cooperate with feeding. The baby has been coaxed to feed for a long time, and slowly develops the bad habit of not eating without toys and not eating without watching cartoons.

In addition, if you are coaxed and chased to feed for a long time, the baby will resist eating, and think that this adult thing will slowly become uninterested in eating, and being coaxed to chase and feed will also prolong the eating time, and it is easy to develop wrong eating habits.

Myth 3: Feeding with a mouthful of water and a mouthful of rice

Many babies have a bad habit of eating, that is, they can't eat without water, and they often drink water while eating. Many mothers don't care, and some parents even feed their babies with a sip of water and a mouthful of food, and they also think that eating and drinking water is not choking and easy to digest.

Eating and drinking water is a wrong eating habit, eating and drinking water will not only affect the amount of food the baby eats, resulting in the baby eating less and less, but also affect the baby's spleen and stomach health.

Because of the participation of water, it is difficult for the baby to chew the food fully, and the food that is swallowed without saliva is not involved, and it will be difficult to digest only by gastric juice, which will naturally affect the health of the spleen and stomach for a long time.

Myth 4: Feed your baby an extra bite of food and grow faster

There is one thing about the baby's diet that many mothers ignore, that is, "overfeeding", overfed babies, the body will have many adverse reactions, such as obesity, food accumulation, gastrointestinal discomfort, poor spleen and stomach, etc. The most common cause of overfeeding your baby is to feed your baby too much food.

Many parents believe that if they feed their babies one more bite of food, the baby will grow faster, especially the elderly at home will use forced feeding in order to let the baby eat an extra mouthful of food.

But the more you forcibly feed the baby, the easier it is for the baby to have rebellious emotions about eating, and feeding more easily leads to "overfeeding", which is really worth the loss, so parents must not force the baby to feed more, everything should be determined according to the amount of food the baby.

When the baby is small, it is normal for mothers to feed their babies, after all, babies can not eat independently, and need the help of mothers, but when the baby has the will to eat independently, it is recommended that mothers let go and try to let the baby eat by themselves, and give the baby more opportunities to exercise.
