Although breast milk is the best food for babies, they need to be weaned at a certain stage of growth. Because babies reach a certain stage of growth, milk cannot meet their nutritional needs, and mothers also need to devote themselves to busy work and do not have time to breastfeed their babies. This requires scientific weaning, so how to do it scientifically?
1. Choose a good time for weaning. Autumn is a good time for weaning, as it is neither too hot nor too cold, and the fruits, vegetables, and fruits are very abundant. When babies are weaned, they can eat a lot of fresh food, so it is a good time for weaning.
2. Slowly reduce the frequency of breastfeeding. If the baby is determined to be weaned, it is necessary to reduce the frequency of breastfeeding to gradually adapt, so that the baby will not experience strong discomfort when not fed.
3. Add complementary foods that taste similar to breast milk. Baby weaning can start with adding some complementary foods that taste similar to breast milk, such as formula milk.
4. Reduce mother's companionship. When a baby is weaned, it is necessary to reduce the mother's company and let the baby play with others, so that the baby cannot see the mother and will not remember to breastfeed, which is beneficial for weaning.
5. Play some games that the baby is interested in. When a baby is weaned, it is advisable to encourage them to play more interesting games, which can reduce their dependence on breast milk and prevent them from remembering to breastfeed. This can effectively help with weaning.
6. Pay more attention to the baby. During weaning, the baby's dependence is relatively strong, and at this time, the baby's heart is also relatively fragile, easily lacking a sense of security. Therefore, parents should pay more attention to their baby to avoid psychological problems.
