Artificial feeding brings much more trouble, than feeding by a breast. It is connected with the fact that mix has to correspond not only to physical data of the kid, but also specific features of his digestive system which can be not ready to new food yet. And to understand that mix does not approach, it is necessary to watch reaction of the kid after each feeding.
Instruction
1. Provide mix selection for prevention of all unpleasant moments connected with transition to artificial feeding to the observing pediatrician who is guided by weight, growth, age, a condition of integuments and muscle bulk of the child.
2. However even at a right choice of mix watch the kid after each feeding as it can have an individual intolerance which is shown by allergic rash or disorder of digestion (loose stool, abdominal murmur, a meteorizm and vomiting).
3. Most often reaction to mix is observed in the first days after transition to artificial feeding. You do not hurry to change mix for another at once. It can cause even more problems with digestion. But somehow to reduce the probability of manifestation of dispepsichesky (intestinal) frustration, you enter mix from small quantity.
4. Because of insufficiently developed enzymatic system not capable to split larger molecules of protein which are a part of mix at the kid there can be a skin reaction (allergy). However it is yet not an occasion to think that mix does not approach. To activate enzymes try some time to alternate it to medical dairy mixes. And only if the allergy does not pass and, moreover, amplifies, change mix for another.
5. Watch not only a condition of the kid, but also his weight - a key indicator of suitability of mix. If transition to artificial feeding is followed by the diarrhea and a simultaneous set of weight corresponding to age the organism means uses compensatory opportunities for assimilation from mix of all useful substances. In this situation the chair manages to be normalized over time.
6. In case of a normal chair, but lack of increase of weight or its decrease, you can be sure that mix does not approach. Perhaps, its structure does not promote a normal metabolism at the kid.
7. Observe the equipment and the mode of feeding by mix as at artificial feeding a frequent mistake is overfeeding of the child. It a result can lead to disorders of digestion which are heavy for distinguishing from reaction to mix.
