How to teach a child to ferment hard food

It is no secret that parents sometimes do not fully understand the correct and healthy baby foods. The good news is that after reading this article you will get no more than 10 simple and clear tips.

Parental control. 

Who goes to the store and buys groceries? Do yourself then all the guilt for wrong child nutrition can be put yourself. No child will be hungry. Children eat everything found in lockers and in the refrigerator. So if there is little food in the kitchen then you need to review your standard shopping list.

Let the child choose. 

On the one hand, it may seem too unusual and even wrong to ask the child about what and how much he wants. But if you fill your daily routine with a fixed amount of time for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks, cook tasty and varied, then the child will choose from what is. There is no packaging or two wholemeal pasta in the kitchen and, say, rice. It is recommended to choose these two options and in any case, it will be useful.

Avoid eating. 

Let the child decide for himself whether he has caught himself or not. Only in this way can a person learn to understand himself and avoid overeating.

Start developing a habit for proper nutrition in a child since birth. 

Food addictions are identified at an early age, literally from the moment. So do not stand for "such a useful cauliflower" if you do not want your child to look at it until the end of life. If the baby does not want today, do not push the feed. Offer it in a week or two and maybe your child will try it.

Diversify the children's menu. In fact, children love not only biscuits and pasta with sausage. Offer them something brand new at home or let yourself choose a cafe. You'll be amazed at how many kids love to experiment.

Count the liquid calories. Carbonated sugar drinks contain a huge amount of calorie-free calories. Gradually replace the fine with water, milk and. So you not only satisfy the child's thirst but also provide the necessary vitamins and minerals.

Do not overestimate dessert. If every meal ends with a "delicious, delicious dessert I spent half a day" then the child begins to perceive the third course as something special. And it is incredibly desirous of wanting more and more, and of ordinary food, especially vegetables - less and less. Do not pay attention to any food, and then the child will no longer ask for sweets.

Don't try to express your love for a baby with food. It is much better to say how much you love him. If you are taking food (such as some special foods) as advertising or a reason to please the child, it is possible that he created the habit of arresting age stress and celebrating the celebrations of what events.

Set an example. 

Children, especially small ones, repeat everything after adults. It's hard to teach your child to eat broccoli and brown rice if you choose cakes and sandwiches yourself. Change your entire family meal by gradually replacing harmful or unhealthy foods with delicious and nutritious foods. Use kitchen appliances such as a multiple-conviction oven and a double-chamber. They allow you to eat without addition or with a minimal amount of oil, during processing very few vitamins are lost, and the dishes are very delicious. If the whole family eats the right and delicious food, the child will be.

Limit the time spent behind your TV and computer. With this method, you will be able to reduce the number and amount of snacks that are often not always helpful. And it is better not only to prohibit the child from watching cartoons but to go with him to walk or play outdoor games. Children love this much more.

Prerequisites for food for a child appear very early on, with the onset of complementary foods. It depends on the parents whether the child will enjoy the pleasure of eating and how varied his taste range will be. Thanks to adults, children can learn that tasty is not just sweet.

Therefore, nutritionists recommend starting with food supplements. Perhaps the child will refuse carrots and zucchini by checking the sweet fruit purée. So it is easier to offer fruit and berry mash after 5-6 items of vegetables. If a child has given up on a vegetable, after a few days, try to give it back again, possibly with a negative attitude towards that time.

It should be remembered that each person needs a different amount of food. The need for food also depends on the intensity of growth, depending on human genetics. Another appetite is associated with seasonal changes. In winter, children grow slower than in the summer, so they eat less. And, of course, the more energy a child spends, the more he eats. If a healthy child has bad appetite, it is worth increasing his physical effort and spending more time outdoors.

Give the little consumer a choice. 

Ask your child what he wants to eat from the full range of products on offer. If possible, specify in advance what the child wants to see on the table. Usually, children eat when they feel hunger and unintentionally choose the products they need for the body.

Do not worry about a periodic refusal to eat if the child is taking the weight well. With a bad lunch, he will do everything for dinner. It is also worth eliminating frequent snacks during the day, pushing out the feeling of hunger, but not giving the body full energy.

You do not need to feed a child with a child - this can increase the negative attitude towards nutrition. Parental misbehavior at the table can create a psychological barrier to food. It is better to allow the child to leave the table rather than to dare to torture anyone.

Taste regulates the brain. 

That is, over time the child experiences negative or positive feelings about different products. If the child felt bad during the tasting of the new product, the negative attitude towards him may remain for a long time. It is therefore advisable to introduce new products if the bulbs are healthy and in good mood.

The child has an important situation in the kitchen. He should have his own dining room, bright and fun dishes. The food itself must also be beautiful and not only healthy. Do not connect the child in front of the TV, which will distract from the food processor. Be yourself an example of a child - to act calmly and politely at the table, to eat with pleasure. All of this will increase the chances of a baby with a great appetite.

It is surprising how many times the changes, understanding and people, even a few 20-30 years ago, doctors and even the mothers themselves said that the child should become solid food only closer to the year or at all. And today, on the contrary, the same doctors recommend not delaying it, and some children already get their first hard meal from four in the month. Children grow up fast, just as a young mother has used breastfeeding because it is necessary to slowly teach the child to provide hard food so that the baby will have the news so that the mother has a new training phase.

Every child is an individual, grows and develops in a variety of ways, so every child is ready to use solid food at the same time, not when the calendar is 4 or 6 months old. This is the main mistake for some young mothers. Sometimes girlfriends or neighbors sing songs that have been almost "walnuts" for half a year, and a naive mother should try to feed her hard food. It is very important not to trust the experience of other mothers, even a smartbook will not help you. 

There are two criteria that will help you understand the truth. First, you need to look at your child's body, qualities, and strengths, and secondly, consult your pediatrician. And why is it rush at all? If the baby eats the mouse for several months, nothing happens, but it will be worse if you spoil the digestive tract from birth. After all, all the children will finally start eating normal food, which means your son will not fit.

When is the time to start eating hard food?

Let's start with the fact that up to 4 months of hard food is definitely not necessary, the baby has everything you need from either artificial nutrition or breast milk. It is not possible to offer an unusual product during this period, so don't even think about it. In addition, many children listen to their reflexes carefully for up to 4-6 months or even later, and the defense reflex suggests to him that the tongue from the mouth is pushed out of anything that does not look like a breast or nipple. It's natural that you don't forget.

In addition, between 4 and 6 months, depending on your child and his condition, you can start feeding hard food a little. To be unsuccessful, but the main thing is that he begins to wash something else with his mouth and tongue, that he should not only intervene but should move.

It is highly recommended to introduce a little bit of potato mashed potatoes, loose pieces or pieces, 6 months later. You should not too literally understand the word hard food, not only coax the mouth, but also the stomach and intestines on other types of food. Another plus period of 6 months - during this time, teeth are severely cut, and children instinctively want to press the gums, and then they have time to invest more heavily in food.

Particularly active children show their readiness for behavior, usually, children look carefully at how the mother eats, looks at this food, tries to put a spoon in the mouth and at other notable moments, you can start to eat without words.

There is a valid test to help you understand if your baby is ready to eat, just answer a few questions about yourself:

Does the child sit with support?

does he hold his head firmly by turning his head off the nipple?

can he move tongue food from gums to heaven to receive it?

If the answers are positive, your baby is ready to eat an adult and if the child is really ready to take food, no mother worries about it.

How to start feeding?

Perhaps, if you turn to literature and even doctors, you have even realized that many people have so many opinions, and that is why you are invited to choose from acceptable foods. You can try to start with a delicious apple or you can try the mess, try both, look at the child's appetite. Although you should not rely heavily on your baby's taste, they are almost all fruit-oriented, but it is worth remembering that some children may be allergic. Therefore, it is probably worth alternating with grains, but more than that below.

Fruit diet

You can start making apple for about six months, buy mashed potatoes or rub yourself - it's not decisive. After a couple of weeks, you can change the apple intake of fruit and tart peach, pear or apricot mash if you make mashed potatoes yourself, then try to buy sweet apples and don't add sugar.

Fruit Diet

Cereal feeding

The child begins to eat porridge at the same time as the fruit puree. It is possible and necessary to start with a variety, buy a variety of cereal varieties, rice, buckwheat, semolina, and you do not need to rush to the conclusion that you will like it or not. For cereals, children understand them for a long time, so try several times. To start, give one teaspoon of tea and increase to 3 tablespoons. This is because children simply refuse to be their members, which means that they do not allow them to prevent the child from displeasing him or her.

Eat vegetables

If the child began to eat fruit purées constantly, his body gets them completely and digested, and the child feels good, you can give your babies vegetables 3 weeks after the fruit begins. Everything here depends on vegetables, some can be crushed and crushed, get soup puree. Vegetable dishes need a little salt. The best start is carrots, potatoes, and zucchini, very soon, you will eat the child's food preferences, he will only eat with pleasure, completely renounce others. Also did not give strength, better try later to give this vegetable, probably meat will change.

Meat dish

Despite the fact that meat dishes are very useful amino acids and are needed, but can not be given earlier than after 8 months. But you can start with this age with beef, boil well and then skip the meat grinder a few times, the higher the child's age, the less meat you need to scroll. It is also worth giving the liver the same method of preparation.

What do teeth do?

Teeth start to grow for up to seven months, probably during this time the baby can usually hold a hand light meal.  you can safely give small biscuits or crackers, sometimes even useful crust bread. He will have a real exercise, he will immerse such a long time, gum him knowing at it. Most importantly, some of this hard food gets into your mouth and already there, finally reaching wet, will begin to go further in your child's stomach.

Two months later

Time passes fast, so the child eats hard food for two months, eats something, refuses something, several cubes have already been cut. Now switch to a new kind of solid food instead of barbecue using a fork kneading food. If we talk about fruits, then cut into thin slices, the most important thing is that from now on, until the year, the child learns to eat the slices of food. Although, of course, he is not ideal for chewing, there will be a lot of swallowing. But the most important thing is that his stomach learns to accept and digest it, so the task is at least finished.

Abandonment of solid food

There are a number of reasons why a child of this age renounces solid food. It is possible that the mother hurried at the same time to feed, and this caused the child displeasure against solid food. It may also be that the pieces are too big for the baby. 

In this case, do not put in the bait at the time so that the child does not lose interest in food. It is worth paying attention to the size of the food or the thickness and grain of the potato. As usual, problems are in a hurry or in the wrong approach to the baby in terms of feed. However, you may have the medical side of the question if, after some time and attempts, the child does not eat, then you should consult a neurologist or a gastroenterologist.

But such cases are an exception to the law, a disease that makes the child unwilling to use hard food, rarity, mostly a bit of patience and access to the child. You may be exaggerating somewhere with the suggestion, but somehow the child will soon start eating.
