Myth 1:Breastfeeding does not lack nutrition. Breast milk is nutritionally balanced, compatible with the immaturity of the infant’s digestive system and immune system, plays a protective role for infants, and is most conducive to the growth and development of the infant’s brain and body, but there is a relative lack of VD, VK, VC, and iron. Take iron as an example, infants need 10 mg of iron per day, dairy diets provide only 0.1 to 0.2 mg per 100 ml, infants are born after the maternal source of stored iron can only be maintained for about 4 months, 4 months after the need to add complementary foods in a timely manner; and then Vitamin C, infants need VC 30 mg per day, cow’s milk 1 mg per 100 ml to provide, breast milk provides 6 mg per 100 ml. In addition, although breast milk is rich in a variety of immunoglobulin, infants still need to be vaccinated with some vaccines, such as hepatitis B vaccine, BCG vaccine. Myth 2: Breastfeeding does not lack calcium. Breastmilk is divided into low-calcium milk and high-calcium milk, the mother can get enough calcium sources, in order to provide high-calcium milk to the baby, otherwise breastfeeding children will also be deficient in calcium, preterm babies need to pay attention to the problem of calcium supplementation. Myth 3: Rubber nipple eyes are big for babies to eat milk. ① Breastfeeding is very important, so the Baby Friendly Hospital does not advocate “three milk” (bottle, nipple, formula); ② early bottle will produce nipple illusion. The nipple is long and thin eye, the baby sucking when the effort to save pain, used to the bottle nipple and then feed the mother’s milk, will feel unable to contain, eat up the effort; ③ easy to cause a short period of time to eat too much milk, resulting in spitting, choking, aspiration pneumonia. Myth 4: Eat a little from both breasts when breastfeeding. Rotational breastfeeding refers to sucking one side and then sucking the other side, not this side to eat two mouthfuls of that side to eat two mouthfuls. If the baby is full after eating one side, the next time to eat the other side or eat half of that side, if not eat the side of the swelling is heavy, need to be manually pumped out. Breastmilk has a “pre-milk”, “post-milk” difference, the first sucked out of the milk called “pre-milk”, thin, rich in water, protein, conducive to the growth and development of infants, tissue renewal; after sucking out of the milk called “post-milk”, “after the milk”, “after the milk”, “after the milk”, “after the milk”, “after the milk”, “after the milk”. Milk called “after the milk”, thicker, rich in fat, lactose, provide heat and produce a sense of satiety, before the milk and after the milk each time to let the baby eat to meet the body’s energy supply and tissue renewal. Myth 5: Stop breastfeeding when your baby has diarrhea. Global annual 5 million people died of infectious diarrhea, mostly in 6 to 12 months of infants, breastfeeding children respiratory, digestive, urinary infections less than artificially fed children and breast milk is rich in more than 100 kinds of oligosaccharides (prebiotics) related to the prebiotics are probiotic food, probiotics can improve the micro-ecology of the intestinal tract, improve immune function, and promote digestion and absorption of nutrients, so infectious diarrhea should continue to children. The first thing you need to do is to breastfeed your child. Myth 6: Breastmilk is not enough to feed milk temporarily. Milk contains 32 kinds of highly allergenic proteins (large molecules of heterogeneous proteins – allergens), a drop of milk is enough to sensitize infants, breastfed children occasionally drink milk will also be sensitized. Like allergic rhinitis, allergic asthma and other adult allergic diseases, mostly in the parents inherited allergies based on, and in the early infancy of the body immune immaturity caused by exposure to allergens. Therefore, no breast milk or insufficient breast milk, should be used in the milk bank of human milk or contains bifidobacteria (probiotics “main force”) and moderate hydrolyzed protein infant formula. Myth 7: Egg yolks are preferred for complementary foods. Breastfeeding 4 to 6 months should be added to the complementary foods, but there is a family history of allergies should pay attention to: ① in good health to add. Cold fever, diarrhea during the disease, the body is in a highly allergic state more likely to fall ill; ② add order: rice flour → fruit and vegetables → protein. First add the iron fortification of the rice flour, followed by pureed vegetables and fruits, and then add protein later. No solid food before half a year, no milk or egg yolks before a year, no whole eggs, peanuts or fish before a year and a half. ③ Add less: Start with 1/4 of the egg yolk first. ④ Add separately: add only one complementary food at a time. ⑤ Pay attention to observation, write the baby’s diet diary, once diarrhea, rash, asthma, blood, to immediately stop adding complementary foods and find the cause. Myth 8: Sterilization is the only way to reduce illness. Developing countries infants have more infections, developed countries infants have more allergies, early infections and later allergies are inversely proportional to the child entering the nursery infections ↑ but allergies ↓, so, to clean but do not over-sanitize. Children play in the mud, rolling in the grass, catching tadpoles, building castles, digging holes, catching bugs, these “dirty” games, can keep children away from allergic diseases. Myth nine: baby diarrhea is sick. Breastfed children’s feces are golden yellow paste, slightly thin, 2 to 4 times a day; artificially fed children’s feces are light yellow or earth gray, slightly dry, 1 to 2 times a day. Maternity supplement so that breast milk in a nutrient more than the baby’s digestion and absorption function will lead to physiological diarrhea in infants, most of the occurrence in 6 months, not a disease, not delay eating, not delay long, without treatment. Myth 10: babies keep crying is sick. Dark, wet and warm inside the womb, bright, dry and cold outside the womb, the difference between the womb and outside the womb, will make the newborn feel uncomfortable and cry more than. In addition, babies eat, drink, shit (hungry, thirsty, poop, pee) sleepy and tired, cold, hot, pain, itch, pain and swelling, rashes, acne and teeth, fever, want to play to find their mothers will cry. Some are physiological – want to eat; some are psychological – want; some are pathological – abdominal pain; some are medical – drugs. Myth 11:Weaning should be done within 1 year of age. Infants younger than 4 to 6 months should be given exclusive breastfeeding because for babies aged 4 to 6 months, breast milk provides all the nutrients, energy, and hydration needed for growth and development. Complementary foods should be added in a timely manner when infants are ≥6 months of age. On this basis, La Leche League International, the U.S. Department of Health, and the World Health Organization recommend that infants should continue to be breastfed until 2 years of age. Since the immune system of infants is not relatively mature until after 2 years of age, breastfeeding before this time is of great significance to the maturation of the immune system and the protection of infants before maturity, and breastfeeding until 2 years of age is even more meaningful for children with allergies. ① <1 year old infants mainly milk, to ensure that the basic amount of milk 800ml / day, on the basis of which gradually add complementary foods; ② weaning still need 400ml of milk / day; ③ <3 years old infants, dairy is still the main food. There is no standard answer to when to wean, adding complementary foods is the beginning of weaning, when to completely wean depends on the baby, the mother's situation, the natural way of weaning the smoothest. Parents should remember eight words: subtle, natural. Myth 12: Children do not eat well if they love breast milk. Breastfeeding and adding complementary foods are not contradictory, breastfeeding children are more likely to accept complementary foods, this is because the mother's dietary components and flavor has penetrated the breast milk, the child through the breast milk has tasted that flavor, and will be very happy to meet again. Sometimes parents are afraid that the child will eat less, forcing the child to eat more, resulting in anorexia; sometimes grandmothers carry bowls of food everywhere, so that the child has a game mentality, in order not to terminate this fun game in favor of bad food.
