In the last article, Malaysia talked about some routines about milk powder. After all, milk powder is a product in great demand. However, if the maternal and child store wants to make more profits, it is impossible to just stare at milk powder. They will also use "alarmist" remarks to let Bao Ma make other consumption.
Bao Ma knows a little about these things. Seeing the face of the clerk, coupled with the trust of the mothers in the maternal and child store, it is easy to "believe it" and then take out the wallet.
However, behind this trust, there may be a pit baby and a pit mother.
3 15 "Counterfeiting" in the maternal and infant store: These products pushed and touted by the clerk are cheating on the baby as well as the mother.
First, about rice noodles: don't be greedy, a certain month is no longer suitable.
When the baby is 6 months old, he can start to add complementary food. At this time, rice flour is a must. Moreover, rice noodles can't be made by parents, so you need to buy high-iron rice noodles, because after 6 months, the iron in breast milk can't meet the baby's demand for iron.
At this time, Ma Bao should be careful about the two routines of the maternal and child store.
1, you can buy more cans of rice noodles, wrong.
Rice flour is only a short-term complementary food, so the supply will not be great and the profit will be relatively reduced. So how to increase profits? Sure, let Ma Bao buy more.
Many maternal and child stores like to "engage in activities" and buy a few cans for people. If Ma Bao thinks it's too much, the clerk will say that the baby can eat more.
In fact, generally speaking, the baby only needs to eat 1 and 2 months of rice flour, and by about 8 months, the baby can eat rotten rice porridge.
Although rice flour is high in iron, it is impossible for older babies to exercise their chewing ability. Therefore, it is not suitable to eat rice noodles all the time after 8 months. If you are worried about iron deficiency, it is enough to supplement your child with complementary foods such as red meat and internal organs.
2, fruits and vegetables and other "upgraded rice noodles" are more suitable, wrong.
Rice noodles, in fact, as long as the original basic high-speed rice noodles are enough.
Those vegetable-flavored cereal rice noodles seem to be customized for big babies, but in fact, there are additives for fruits and vegetables, and even sugar. For the baby who just started to add complementary food, this is very bad, and it is easy for the baby to prefer flavored food in the future.
Second, nutritional supplement: the clerk is not a doctor and can't supplement nutrition indiscriminately.
Baby's head is bald: calcium deficiency;
Baby sleeping night sweats: calcium deficiency;
Baby is not hairy: zinc deficiency;
Baby is a little constipated and has loose bowels: eat probiotics. ...
These are all pistachio mothers' own experiences, and they are still in different maternal and child stores. Pistachio nuts were a little constipated at that time, and even a clerk asked her mother to buy probiotics for her baby for a long time. Moreover, the clerk also said that his children have also eaten this product since childhood. Later, Ma Guo found that this product had only been on the market for 3 or 4 years, and her child was 10 years old.
In short, as long as the baby is a little abnormal, it will become a "problem" for the baby in the mouth of some shop assistants and need various supplements. As soon as my parents heard this, they thought it was only good and not bad to make up these, so they bought them in buy buy.
However, for the vast majority of babies, there is no special lack of some kind of nutrition. The "abnormality" in the eyes of these parents may actually be just some common phenomena of babies, which have no effect on their development. Excessive supplementation will be harmful to babies.
For the baby, only vitamin AD needs to be supplemented, and other nutritional supplements and suggestions are supplemented at the doctor's suggestion.
Remember: a shop assistant, not a doctor.
Third, baby snacks: those not marked "baby" are suitable for babies.
When the baby is older, there are still many snacks to eat, such as grinding biscuits, puffs, dissolving beans, rice cakes and so on.
Ma Guo remembers once asking a shop assistant, "Can this rice cake be eaten by a baby of 10 months?"
The clerk's reply is: "The words baby are written on it, and they are all edible."
At that moment, Malaysia was also shocked. Because there are various additives in the ingredient list of this rice cake, I don't know anything else, but at least there is sugar.
Ma Bao must remember that not everything labeled "baby food" is suitable for babies. Be sure to look at the ingredient list under the food package, and then parents will find that there are very few suitable for the baby.
Maybe some parents think that babies don't eat much.
But the fact is, every kind of snack is piled up, and there are still many. The sweetness of these snacks is also easy for babies to be picky about food.
Four, baby cream care products: choose the evaluated products and brands.
A cream makes a healthy and lovely baby "unrecognizable": obesity, thick hair and so on. There are not a few such babies. Behind this is the sadness and helplessness of many parents.
According to the user, this cream is the best seller in the local maternal and child store, and it is also pushed by the clerk.
Indeed, the effect is good and the profit is high. Only by pushing can we be worthy of our own commission and the profit of the maternal and child store. As for Bao Ma and the babies, they are "unworthy".
There are too many baby creams and various toiletries on the market. In many maternal and infant stores, there are several special ones. But these brands may not have heard of it, and the quality inspection report is even more invisible.
Here, Malaysia advises parents to see some professional evaluations, such as dad's evaluation, and then choose some toiletries according to their test reports.
Finally, if the baby has eczema and other abnormalities, don't look for the clerk in the maternal and child store, but go to the doctor. Sometimes, a little calamine can solve it.
Five, maternal supplies: moonlight water, corset, etc.
In order to let the parturient sit on the moon, in addition to personnel, accessories should also be in place. At this time, the maternal and child store also launched novel and unique products.
1, Moon Water
When I first heard about "Moon Water", Malaysia found it really great.
From the clerk's description, Yuezi water can nourish blood, maintain beauty, lose weight after delivery and promote lactation. With so many benefits, treasure moms are naturally excited.
But the truth is, it's because it contains a little alcohol. If the mother comes to a bottle every day, won't the baby be a "Dionysus"?
The moon water that is praised to the sky may not be as good as a cup of boiled water. Really cheated the baby and cheated the mother.
2. Body-shaping clothes
During pregnancy, pregnancy is a kind of beauty during pregnancy.
But after giving birth to a child, it is still full of fat and greasy.
Corsets and bandages have become the choice of many parturients. Moreover, some corsets also have the functions of burning fat, shaping, anti-aging and detoxification. With these functions, the price is naturally not cheap.
But the fact is that the vast majority of corsets are not only useless for the recovery of maternal figure, but also harmful to maternal because of improper use.
Ma suggested that if pregnant women must use corsets and want to lose weight as soon as possible, they must also use them under the guidance of a doctor. After all, health is much more important than figure.
Message from pistachio mother
It is not excluded that some maternal and child stores are still very conscientious, protecting the interests of consumers to the greatest extent while making money.
However, as a treasure mother, we should also take precautions. If you fall into the "pit" of the maternal and infant store, it may be Ma Bao and the children who are injured. Therefore, before shopping, you must do your homework and buy without knowing it, instead of "letting it go".
