Introduction: How old can the baby eat dry rice? Many parents have made a mistake. Be careful not to help the baby's development
After the baby is born, he must drink milk first. He cannot eat food other than milk. When he grows about six months old, he needs to add complementary food and slowly transition to adult meals. In this process, most families will make the food very fine for the baby to have a good baby, and often make paste for the baby to eat. When it needs to be bitten, they will cut it into small diced foods for the baby to eat.
I wonder if you did this? In fact, taking care of the baby in this way is not only hard for parents, but it is not good for the baby. Don’t think that doing this is good for the baby.
When the baby adapts to the paste complementary food, he or she should gradually transition to dry rice. This is beneficial to the baby. So how old is the baby able to eat dry food? Many parents make mistakes, beware that they will not help their baby's development.
I have a friend whose name is Xiaoxiao. After giving birth, he stopped working. He focused on his child at home and almost never let his grandmother interfere. When it comes to the stage of adding complementary foods, Xiaoxiao always makes various paste complementary foods for the baby, and the complementary foods are matched differently every day.
persisted until the baby was one year old. Xiaoxiao planned to change the complementary food for the baby and made blocky food for the baby to eat, but after trying it several times, the baby didn't eat well and it was difficult to chew the food.
Since then, Xiaoxiao still accommodates the baby and often makes complementary foods very finely. When the child is in the tooth change period, , the , the baby teeth will not fall off for a long time, but the permanent teeth grow, which makes Xiaoxiao feel very distressed.
From the above situation, it can be seen that the failure to give the baby a dry meal in time has brought many bad effects.
First of all, it is affected by the development of teeth. Double rows of teeth are prone to appear during the tooth change period. Only by using baby teeth more often to let the permanent teeth fall before they grow out can you free up space for the permanent teeth. If you grow double rows of teeth, you need to take your child to the hospital to remove the baby teeth. The child suffers a lot. Moreover, after the baby teeth are extracted, the teeth may also be unsightly in the future, which will affect the child's appearance.
Secondly, it affects chewing ability and swallowing ability. If you do not eat dry food in time, children will get used to eating foods that do not require excessive chewing. When adding harder food, it will be difficult for children to accept because chewing ability and swallowing ability are very poor.
Finally, it affects the child's height development. If the child is used to eating too soft or too fine food, he will gradually become very picky and prone to picky food. If he doesn't eat well, he can't keep up with the nutrition, which will affect the child's height development.
To sum up, it is very bad to give your baby a dry meal too late. So how old can the baby eat soft rice?
Under normal circumstances, after the baby is 7 months old, he can chew the food with his gums and crush the food with his tongue. So when the baby is 7 months old, parents can change their complementary foods and stop giving the baby mushy foods.
First make the food into pieces and let the baby chew it with the gums, or soft noodles, hard biscuits, cooked carrot sticks, etc. can be given to the baby.
may not eat well when you first get used to it, but you have to persist more, and the baby will eat better and better. If you look at the baby’s poor food and immediately turn around and make paste-like complementary foods, that’s wrong.
About when to give your baby a dry meal? Have you figured it out? For the baby's growth, don't do any mistakes in every step, parents should work hard together.
