Patient's question:
My baby is 16 months old, and her eating quality is very poor. Sometimes it's hard for her to eat, and she only manages to have a little when adults coax her. I've already given her digestive pills, but they haven't been very effective. She's very healthy overall. Additionally, my baby is still breastfeeding. What is the best time to wean her?Doctor's answer:
I think creating a dining atmosphere is quite good. My daughter is just 2 years old, and she always joins the table with everyone for meals. She's really enthusiastic about eating. Also, avoid having things like the TV that attract her, as that can also make it difficult for her to eat properly. If she expresses a desire to feed herself, don't stop her—let her learn to be independent. This can also boost her interest in eating. My daughter can now hold her own bowl and spoon and eat so smoothly.At 16 months, the baby can be weaned. It's best to do it during colder weather. Also, be with the baby throughout the process, talk to her, play with her, and make her feel comforted. In reality, the baby understands everything.
