The newborn baby has a very small stomach capacity, so it advocates feeding on demand. As a result, many babies have the habit of eating night milk. However, after adding food supplements in 4 to 6 months, the baby needs to gradually quit the night milk, because a good night's sleep is more conducive to growth and development than the middle of the night.
No night milk can also be fat
"The grass is not fat, no horse." Many mothers think that the baby is good at night feeding. Not eating night milk will affect the growth and development. Is that really the case?
The negative effects of eating night milk
Increase the burden on the stomach
The human gastrointestinal tract works at night into the trough, and the digestion of food gradually slows down. Eating at night will increase the burden on the digestive system and cause gastrointestinal disorders. The baby will often cry because of abdominal discomfort.
High impact
Physiological studies on sleep have confirmed that oxygen and calorie consumption are the least during sleep, and that the growth hormone released by the baby during nighttime sleep is higher than during the day, which is more conducive to long-term growth.
Induced tooth decay
Night milk will affect the health of teeth, especially babies who eat milk powder, and are more likely to develop dental caries.
Easy to obesity
There is less activity at night, and eating too much milk is easily converted into fat in the body, making the baby grow fat and affecting health.

For babies who are eager for night milk, the amount and type of food they eat during the three meals during the day will be reduced, often resulting in inadequate nutrient intake and affecting growth and development.

After adding a complementary food, step by step or night milk

Conditions for weaning at night
For the baby from April to June, the calories provided by food supplements account for about 10% of the calories provided by all foods; for babies aged 8 to 9 months, the calories provided by complementary foods account for about half of the total food calories. One or two hours before the baby goes to bed, you can feed some rice noodles, porridge, or milk cake to avoid being hungry at night and not need nursing at night.
6 Nightmare
Adjust sleep time
Children who do not eat milk for 4 to 6 months at night can sleep more than 6 hours, so do not disturb the sleeping baby at night. Wake up 3 or 4 times a night, woke up or cry for the baby, need to reduce his sleep time during the day, and do more outdoor activities, delay the time to fall asleep.
Add food supplements in a timely manner
The age of months for adding complementary foods to babies varies from person to person, but the earliest is no earlier than 4 months and the latest is no later than 8 months, usually 4 to 6 months. Supplementary foods should be added in a timely manner, and their type and quantity will increase as the baby's age increases.
Don't worry or worry
Eating night milk is a habit. It is also the result of adult accommodation. Once the baby is asleep at night, whether it is finished or not, you should immediately unplug the bottle or nipple from the baby's mouth to prevent the baby from crying at night. If you quit night milk, your mother can't hurry, nor can she be soft-hearted, and gradually stick to it little by little, it will make the baby develop the habit of sleeping together.
Adjust the feeding time

At the same time, control the amount of milk, step by step to reduce the amount of milk, use various things instead of milk to meet the baby, until let him sleep all night.
Divert attention
The baby crying at night may not be hungry, but may also want to get a sucking sensation. At this time, you can give the baby a pacifier to suck and breathe, play a little comfort instead of using it, or use other methods to divert attention. The baby may cry for a while, tired and then fall asleep.
Daytime eating patterns, enough dinner
During the day, the diet should be regular, and the sleeping baby should be delayed until about 10:00 pm to allow the baby to eat. If the baby is still awake at 3 to 4 o'clock in the night, he/she may try to squat first, try not to nurse it, and extend the baby's continuous sleep time.
TIPS: What if the baby wakes up crying in the middle of the night?
There are many reasons why a baby wakes up crying in the middle of the night, such as urine, too cold or too hot, too tight clothes, too hungry or thirsty, uncomfortable, lack of calcium, and so on. The mother should carefully observe and distinguish between them.
The baby who has already added supplementary foods, has a height and weight standard, and meets the condition of weaning at night, if he woke up 3 or 4 times a night and woke up or had to have a baby to cry, it was a bad habit and should be corrected.
Remedy
Reduce your baby's daytime sleep and postpone falling asleep. For babies who will not give a baby a crying, let him cry for 1 to 2 minutes before comforting; if they still cry, wait for 1 to 2 minutes before comforting, wait for a longer time to comfort them, try not to give as much as possible, or Feeding lighter milk powder, and slowly changing to boiled water instead of milk. On the next day, the waiting time is extended again at night and is repeated, ranging from 2 to 3 days and as much as 7 days. The baby can quit the habit of feeding at night and sleep longer without crying.
It should be noted that when the baby is ill or the amount of supplementary food is insufficient, it is not necessary to hurry to quit night milk.
