Patient's question:
The baby is three years old and still breastfeeding, nursing more than five times a day. The milk is sufficient and rich, with two main meals and two snacks. The baby has average health check-up results, good memory, high emotional intelligence, and abundant energy. After starting kindergarten, how should breastfeeding be handled?Doctor's answer:
In the past, society also breastfed children for several years, but this is rarely the case now. Ma Bao's goal is great, but perseverance is needed to stick with it. A three-year-old baby can breastfeed as a supplement or be trained to eat three meals a day, so that their digestive system can function normally and keep up with the collective pace of kindergarten. If Ma Bao wants the baby to continue breastfeeding at kindergarten, she can squeeze a bottle and send it to the kindergarten, or place it in the kindergarten's refrigerator in advance. All of these require first consulting with the teachers.
