Using Infant Vitamin Drops When Baby Won't Drink Formula

Infants refusing babies foods can be so disappointing to the mothers but what can we do? Forcing them is definitely not the solutions. Do you know it could be a disappointment turned blessing? How do I mean? Just continue reading, you'll surely thank me later.

Some infants prefer eating home made foods; that is foods prepared at home to taking some cereals and other formula specially manufactured and supplemeted for them, that is just how they are, it shouldn't hurt you so much, just be a good mum and play along.

Feeding infants with foods that other family members eat could be so difficult and demanding because you would need to be careful selecting foods for them, because their immunities are not so built yet, consuming what any other adults  consumes might be detrimental to their healths. There are some tips on how to carefully select their meals alongside other family members meals without much stress.

• Firstly; before selecting a meal to cook for the whole family, look for meals that would contain vegetables, green leafy vegetables are easily digestible and contains vitamins and minerals which is good for the baby and everyone too. Examples of such foods are yam and vegetables, in this case, cook the yam to be soft, this will aid in meshing it for your baby.

• Cook meals that would contain palm oil and easily mesh able, palm oil contains vitamin A in high quantity, this will help in building the baby's immunity and also for maintaining proper vision. Foods like this could be pottage beans, add enough palm oil and animal protein; Crayfish could substitute fish. Wash the crayfish thoroughly before adding and pound it thoroughly too to avoid having their skeletons piercing into the baby's oesophagus while eating, that could be dangerous for a baby. If you're using fish, try as much as possible to de-bone, then mesh a little before adding to the food.

• Avoid too many spices while preparing  meals that the baby will partake in, moderation is the key,  be moderate when adding salts and other spices.

• Use the safest cooking method to prepare your infant's food, the other family members might be having the same foods but would be prepared differently; For instance, if you're to have fried plantain and beans for dinner, bring out some plantain and cook them for the baby, do not give him fried plantain yet, it is not easily digestible. Cook one will be preferable.

• As the child progresses in age, you can introduce some home made finger foods too; finger foods in this context are some snacks like chin-chin, pea nuts, donut, cakes and so on, while doing these, try reducing the quantity of sugar added in the them, you could even substitute sugars with other natural sweeteners example; Dates.

• In all of these, do not forget to give them water as much as possible, their bodies need them.

• Finally, I talked about a disappointment being a blessing at the beginning of this write up. Let me explain why; Some infant formulas are not what they are portrayed to be, some nutrition information on some of these formulas are formulated, some contains supplements that are not necessarily needed, some may be harmful to the infants, again, that beautiful infant might be trying to save Mummy and Daddy some money, they probably don't like wastages and that's their perfect ways of saying that. Now you know, can you bring that adorable baby closer and give him or her a Peck for me? Go on and make his meals, he surely enjoys them.
