Even in June, the body of the newborn is relatively weak. It is very important to do a good job in the care and maintenance of the newborn. We should do a good job of nursing, so as to avoid the problem of the child getting sick. As a newborn, we should pay attention to the feeding problem of the child, and instructions on dietary care of the newborn. Newborn diet care As the saying goes, disease comes from the mouth, because the resistance and other functions of the newborn are still relatively weak, so mothers must pay attention to the baby's diet care. So what exactly are there? Let's take a look at it together with me.

Dietary Care for Newborns
1. Feeding Bottle and other utensils should be sterilized
Since newborns are particularly weak against bacteria, tableware should be thoroughly sterilized. The easiest way to sanitize at home is to boil it. To sterilize by boiling, wash the bottle and teaspoon with detergent and water, and place them in a pot. The water in the pot should submerge the tableware. After the water boils, keep it boiling for 10 minutes. Because the nipple is easily damaged, it can be put in 3 minutes before the ceasefire. Finally, remove the utensils and place them in a clean place covered with a layer of sterilized gauze to prevent contamination.
2. The size of the nipple hole
A newborn's stomach can initially hold less than 30ml of liquid food. After two weeks, it can be gradually increased to 60 ml. After breast milk enters the stomach, it takes about 3 hours to empty, so the amount of each feeding should be moderate. Mixed breastfeeding should not be less than 3 times a day. If it is reduced to 1-2 times, it may cause a rapid decrease in breast milk secretion. When artificial feeding, the size of the nipple hole on the bottle should be appropriate. If it is too small, the child will get bored or fall asleep before eating; if it is too large, it is easy to choke. What is the right size for the nipple opening? You can turn the bottle upside down, the first 1-2 seconds is a small splash, and then it becomes a ticking, which is more appropriate.
3. It is not necessary to strictly regulate the feeding time
In general, newborns weighing 3-4 kg should be fed every 3-4 hours on average, about 6-7 times a day. However, if your baby is really hungry, you can even feed him an hour before feeding time. Or if he's already hungry two hours before feeding time because mom doesn't have enough milk, then it should be fed too. Second, when your baby has eaten for 3-4 hours, there is no need to insist on waking him up from sleep to feed. As your baby grows, he will gradually extend the interval between feedings and develop a regular hunger habit.
4. Pay attention to how much your baby eats
At this time, the mother can try feeding the baby with a fake pacifier or warm water to see if he can fall asleep again, or delay the feeding time of the night a little to slowly change the habit of feeding at night. Starting 24 hours after birth, the amount of each feeding is 30ml, depending on how your baby is feeding.

To take good care of the newborn, we must take good care of the child's health and do preventive work to avoid the child's disease problems. Pay attention to the method of feeding and the amount of food your child eats to avoid malnutrition. As a postpartum mother, you should pay attention to taking care of your body, and you must pay attention to sufficient milk, so as to maintain the healthy growth of the child.
