Patient's question:
Hello: My son is 8 months old. Due to insufficient breast milk, I have been mixing breastfeeding with formula feeding. But recently, he has refused to drink formula milk and has a strong aversion to the nipple. I wonder if experts have any good suggestions for this? Is it necessary to replace formula milk with other foods?Doctor's answer:
The baby doesn't drink formula milk. Mainly because the baby loves breast milk. Currently, the baby is mainly breastfed. The baby cannot accept other dairy products. This time, it's important to add appropriate foods for the baby gradually. You can start with rice flour, yolk, and jam, and then gradually move on to meat porridge and soft noodles. After changing the taste, the baby can gradually get used to the taste of formula milk. And gradually increase the amount of formula milk over a short period of time. First, change the feeding method. Second, adjust the food structure. These three are reasonable combinations of food nutritional components.
