How to wean your baby alone

The baby’s mother alone should pay attention to the weaning time, add milk powder reasonably, and distract the baby, while the mother herself needs to apply back to the milk medicine. Weaning method 1, weaning time: you need to wean your baby gradually, it is recommended that you can first wean your baby from daytime breast milk, because at this time the baby’s attention is more easily diverted, when the daily milk consumption is about 1000ml, the daily breastfeeding times are 3-5 times, you can gradually reduce from 5 times to 3 times, and then from 3 times to 2 times. At the same time, wean your baby from milk during the day and then at night. When weaning your baby, you should choose a time when your baby’s body is better to avoid diarrhea or vomiting and other adverse reactions; 2. Add milk powder: During the weaning process, you can appropriately give your baby formula, increase your baby’s interest in milk powder and complementary foods, reduce the demand for breast milk, let your baby gradually adapt to the bottle, and at the same time increase the number of complementary foods to ensure that complementary foods are eaten on time every day. You can also increase the number of complementary foods, ensure that the complementary foods are eaten on time every day, and reduce the number of breastfeeding as appropriate, such as arranging the feeding time in between the two complementary foods, that is, the complementary foods become regular meals; 3. Distractions: During the weaning period, the mother should try to distract the baby’s attention, such as when the climate is milder, you can take the baby out to play, do not let the baby touch the nipple too much; 4. Use back milk medicine: insist on taking oral back milk medicine to help weaning, such as vitamin B6, malt, etc. Usually women will have breast pain or obvious lumps after using the medicine, but these phenomena can usually disappear gradually. If the breasts are too swollen and painful, you can use topical Chinese medicine, such as mannitol wrapped in a cloth bag and applied to the breasts externally, which can also play a role in relieving the swelling and pain. At the same time, you should control your diet properly and do not eat a lot of soup or food with milk-boosting effect, otherwise it will lead to the growth of back milk. Note: Weaning cannot be done overnight and requires patience and persistence. You should try not to let your baby see or touch your mother’s nipples when weaning. You don’t have to avoid them during weaning, but play more with your baby to divert your baby’s attention. In addition, do not let your baby eat breast milk again after weaning.
