Inappetent babies. Instill good habits. 🍏🍉🍓 These children eat the same types of food and in small amounts and generally show disinterest in food. It is a disorder that occurs more frequently than is believed It is common to hear the concern of many mothers because their children do not eat properly, it seems that they simply do not like it. Inappetent babies are children who eat very poorly, in small quantities and slowly. They limit their consumption to only a certain food group and therefore may have an inadequate intake of macronutrients (proteins, lipids and carbohydrates) and micronutrients (vitamins, minerals and trace elements) essential for optimal growth and development.

*****Wrong customs***** Take into account that parents are the first to set the example. If the caregivers do not have correct eating habits and, on the contrary, they snack between meals and do not respect the schedules, it is very possible that the baby acquires these same customs, which will result in not being hungry at mealtime. Children who go to bed very late and do not get up early may also have inadequate meal times, as they do not eat breakfast at the correct times. Similarly, many parents tend to disrespect the spaces dedicated to food and feed their children in places like the car to buy time. Eating is very tasty, because eating food is a pleasant, pleasant activity and above all necessary to have a healthy life, whether you are a child or an adult, but if eating is so tasty, why do some children dislike it? Well, there are several reasons and here we explain some of them. Other common causes that many children have sensitive palates and therefore reject certain smells (if they are strong and unfamiliar) and textures. They can also repudiate certain colors, because they seem very unpleasant. Therefore, it is important to make recipes with mild flavors and smells and with a harmonious and pleasant appearance and color. *****Punishment award***** It is correct to congratulate the child when he eats properly, as this contributes to In the motivation process, the inappropriate thing is to reward or punish the little ones with objects and walks in exchange for them to eat the right way, because if you do, you will add an emotional value to the food.

*****Solutions***** Establish a fixed time to eat and choose a suitable and pleasant place to do it. Respect time and space. Parents should eat sitting next to their children, quietly and tasting a variety of foods. Play with your creativity and make an effort in presenting the food to get attractive and fun shapes. Forget about monotony and offer him varied menus. Raising a baby to eat improperly can be a long process that requires a lot of patience. **Let's forget the monotony and we are going to offer a varied menu to our little ones** We must take into account that something is wrong when there are certain signs that tell us that things are not going well and that it is time to consult with the pediatrician, for example: When your baby does not grow between the appropriate ranges according to her age, the increase in weight and height stops or if the child becomes very ill. If you find yourself comparing the amount of food eaten by other children your baby's age and decide to seek advice from family and friends of these infants because your child is not eating, then react, because things are not going as they should . It is important to take into account that each organism is different and that one baby does not have to eat the same proportions as another. Thanks for reading my post.💜😀
