1. Improve the eating environment

As the baby grows, the greater the breakthrough in hearing and vision, the stronger the curiosity about the surroundings, so the baby is very susceptible to the influence of the surrounding environment (especially the baby after 3 months old), so the family should drink milk for the baby You should try your best to create a quiet and soft environment. It can eliminate all surrounding noise sources such as TV, mobile phone, radio, etc., which is conducive to the baby’s concentration and concentration on breastfeeding.

2. Adjust the feeding method

Mothers can choose a pacifier suitable for the baby according to the baby’s own situation, and pay special attention to the design of the pacifier and the size of the hole.

It is worth noting that the feeding bottle should be turned upside down before feeding to see if the milk drips evenly, so that the baby can breastfeed smoothly. Parents can also play games with the baby to increase the amount of exercise of the baby, so that the baby will naturally feel hungry and want to eat after exercising.

3. Standardize feeding time

Adjust the baby’s feeding time in time, adopt a small amount of feeding and multiple meals, and make the feeding time more regular. Many mothers do not specifically determine the time of breastfeeding, and often adopt the method of “feeding as soon as the baby cries”, which is unscientific and not conducive to the baby’s own growth. What mothers need to pay attention to is to avoid feeding or drinking too much water for the baby at least one hour before breastfeeding, and to ensure that the baby’s food must be easy to digest.

4. Appropriately used as complementary food

Because babies eat the same thing every day, it is easy for them to lose interest in the original food and even develop resistance. In fact, babies who are four to six months old can try to feed complementary foods, which also increases the baby’s nutritional sources and increases the intake of strong nutrients, so mothers can feed more new foods.

5. Friendly and gentle attitude

Many mothers are too impatient when faced with the situation that their babies will not breastfeed, and some even use some abnormal means to force their babies to breastfeed, which will have the opposite effect and make the babies even more unwilling to eat. On the contrary, the mother should accompany the baby to breastfeed in a gentle and happy mood. This mood can also drive the baby’s eating mood, making the baby feel at ease and more conducive to eating.

6. Appropriate use of drugs

Parents can choose whether to seek medical treatment according to the severity of the baby’s refusal to breastfeed. If the baby’s refusal to breastfeed is too serious, mothers can take the baby to seek help from a doctor. The doctor will prescribe some appetizers in due course to help the baby increase his appetite and increase food intake.

7. Smooth transition

Babies need a gentle milk transfer process, and don’t change the baby’s formula suddenly too hastily. At the beginning of milk transfer, the original milk powder and the current milk powder need to be mixed together for the baby to eat. At the beginning, you can mix 30% of the new milk powder into the original milk powder. After that, if the baby has no adverse reactions, you can increase the amount of new milk powder every few days. You can try to mix half of the old and new milk powder first, and then try to add 60% of the new milk powder to the original milk powder. After the baby is fully adapted, the current milk powder can be used to replace the original milk powder. In addition, mothers need to keep in mind that during the period when the baby is turning milk, it is not allowed to feed the baby complementary food. Do not switch milk when children are sick, such as colds, fever, diarrhea, etc., and during vaccinations.

8. Pay attention to the baby’s health

Family members need to pay attention to the baby’s physical condition in a timely manner. If the baby does not breastfeed due to pathological reasons, they can take the baby to see a doctor and follow the doctor’s advice for timely treatment. During the baby’s teething period, a hard nipple with a small hole is likely to cause pain and discomfort to the baby, so the baby needs to use a softer nipple with a slightly larger hole. In addition, mothers can also mix food such as rice noodles and oatmeal into the milk, which can not only increase the baby’s appetite, but also provide a lot of nutrition.

9. Take your baby to exercise more

Doing more exercise is of great benefit to regulating the baby’s gastrointestinal motility and improving appetite, so parents can spend more time for their baby to exercise every day. For example, you can use the fitness rack to do some gymnastics for your child, pull your legs and arms, pinch chiropractic, etc., and you can also play in the swimming pool with him, which is beneficial to your child’s health.

10. Take good care of your baby

The baby’s refusal to breastfeed may also be related to the weather being too cold or too hot, which changes indefinitely. Therefore, during the climate transition period, all work must be done to ensure that the temperature and humidity of the baby’s environment are appropriate, so as to prevent the baby from having poor appetite.
