How to make baby rice cereal? What are the precautions for babies to eat rice cereal?

Babies can start eating complementary foods from six months old, and rice cereal is one of the most common complementary foods for babies. Rice cereal is a semi-solid form of various grains that have been mechanically crushed and boiled in water. It is not only nutritious, but also easy to digest.

1. When making rice paste for babies, we need to prepare the rice. It should be noted that glutinous rice is not suitable because it is not conducive to the baby's digestion. After the rice is prepared, grind it directly into powder. In addition to rice, we can also add some auxiliary ingredients such as egg yolks and vegetables, remember to grind them into powder.

2. Then, put the powder into the pot and stir-fry for about three minutes until the ingredients are cooked. After the stir-frying is completed, grind it several times to refine the powder again. The finer it is, the better it is for the baby's digestion and absorption. Finally, store the rice paste properly and it is done.

1. When feeding rice cereal to babies, we should not forget to add some other ingredients to increase the baby's nutritional intake. Generally, for babies aged six months, it is enough to add some fruits and vegetables. After six months, you can slowly add things like meat paste.

2. In addition, rice cereal cannot completely replace breast milk. Before the baby is weaned, it is good for their comprehensive and balanced nutrition to feed with milk and complementary food alternately. When the baby's teeth grow out slowly, you can increase the granularity of the complementary food moderately, but not too fine, which is good for their chewing ability.

3. If the baby is not very interested in rice porridge at first, we can mix rice porridge with milk powder and prepare them together. In this way, the rice porridge will have the milky flavor that the baby likes, and it will also taste thicker.

1. Babies need different rice porridge at different ages. Parents can buy specific rice porridge according to actual conditions, but they must pay attention to the fact that the rice porridge must be of quality assurance.

2. When the baby is only four months old, you can add some light foods such as carrots or yam to the baby's rice cereal. Because the baby's digestion is not mature enough at four months, these foods must be cooked before feeding them to the baby. When the baby is six months old, you can add some meat or animal liver to the rice cereal, which can provide more nutrition for the baby.

3. Parents should pay attention to the fact that when adding other condiments to the baby's rice porridge, the taste should not be too strong, and should be as light as possible, otherwise it will cause unnecessary burden on the baby's stomach and intestines. When the baby grows up, needs more nutrition and has better digestion ability, you can slowly add seasonings.

In principle, it is best not to feed your baby rice porridge before 6 months old. The secretion and activity of digestive enzymes such as amylase are low in babies under 6 months old, and each baby is fed in a different way (i.e., formula milk, breast milk, or a mixture of the two), so the time of feeding rice porridge does not need to be unified. Feeding your baby rice porridge too early will cause vomiting and diarrhea due to the immaturity of the digestive function, and the digestive function will be disordered; feeding your baby rice porridge too late will cause malnutrition, and the baby may even refuse to eat non-dairy liquid foods. As for when to feed your baby rice porridge, the age in months is only a reference for mothers, and the baby's physical growth performance is the important factor in determining when to feed rice porridge.
