Some parents have found that their 9-month-old baby doesn't like to eat, which makes them very worried and afraid of affecting their child's normal development. However, they don't know what the reason is and suspect that there is a disease. So, what should they do if their 9-month-old baby doesn't like to eat?
When a 9-month-old baby does not eat, it is usually caused by improper ways of adding complementary foods. Adding complementary foods should be done slowly and can be tried multiple times. Do not change complementary foods frequently just because you do not eat once. It is necessary to let the baby gradually adapt. Generally, the method of gradually adding complementary foods is adopted, and the baby will adapt. It is also possible that babies lack some trace elements, especially zinc, which can lead to poor appetite and lack of interest in complementary foods. Zinc supplementation can be carried out according to the actual situation. The commonly used zinc gluconate can restore the baby's appetite after supplementation.
In addition, a baby's poor spleen and stomach can also lead to a lack of appetite for food, which can easily result in gastrointestinal indigestion. After adding complementary foods, there may be symptoms such as bloating and excessive flatulence. At this time, the spleen and stomach can be regulated, and digestive drugs that help the spleen and stomach can also be used. Treatment can include oral administration of Baby Jianpi Powder and Healthy Stomach Digestive Oral Liquid, as well as acupoint massage and massage. After adjusting the baby's gastrointestinal function, the child's diet will return to normal.
In short, a 9-month-old baby's lack of appetite for food is caused by various factors, and can be treated accordingly after examination. Generally, it can be relieved.
