Reduced demand for milk
Under normal circumstances, an eight-month-old baby has begun to grow teeth, and complementary food can not be ignored at this time. Adding complementary food, the demand for milk will be relatively less, so that they can keep healthy and have good habits, which is very helpful for their healthy growth.
Supplementary food additives
While adding complementary food, the daily milk quantity should be kept between 500-600ml. If it is breastfeeding, it can be appropriately halved at this time, so that the baby can adapt to complementary food and help weaning.
Unwilling to drink milk
At this stage, many babies don't want to drink milk. At this time, mothers should pay attention to the following points: At this time, it is necessary to understand the reasons why the baby does not drink milk. Maybe they didn't want to drink milk when they first started teething. At this time, you can choose a nipple with a larger hole to help them drink milk, which can effectively reduce the pain caused by sucking. You can also make supplementary food such as milk powder or cereal into paste, and it will be better to choose a spoon to feed it.
The environment should be quiet
In addition, during daily feeding, the environment should not be noisy and should not distract the baby, which can help them eat more professionally and avoid being attracted by milk.
