Therefore, mothers with young children must pay special attention, making the right formula for the baby is extremely important because if done wrong, it will affect the quality of the milk, causing the baby not to fully absorb the nutrition source. Here, marrybaby.vn will name 4 "deadly" mistakes that parents often make when preparing baby formula:

Mix too thick / too thin milk

Her baby Linh Chi (28 years old, an accountant) is 5 months old, but she does not have enough milk so she has to use formula. A few days ago, the whole family was horrified when the baby had a high fever and bloody diarrhea. At that time, the couple just frantically sent their children to the emergency hospital. The test results showed that the baby had enteritis caused by drinking concentrated formula too.

Many parents think that children who drink condensed milk than the recommended dosage will absorb more nutrients, quickly gain weight and develop better. However, this is a very wrong thought.

In newborn babies and in the immature digestive system, drinking formula too thick for a long time can affect the digestive tract, destroying cells, specifically causing enteritis.

If this continues, the baby will have a fever, bloody diarrhea, even life threatening. In addition, the kidneys of young children in the first few months of life are still very weak, so the use of too thick milk also makes the body dehydrated and the kidneys have to work too much, leading to a kidney failure.

Therefore, if mothers do not have enough milk for their babies and babies have to drink formula, special attention should be paid to mixing correctly with the recipe instructions on the product. Avoid mixing milk too thick to make your baby more susceptible to constipation, tired of drinking milk, and can also lead to other dangerous intestinal diseases. Or the mixing of milk is too thin, the baby will not receive enough nutrients needed to grow.

Prepare powdered milk with boiled water

Mixing milk in this way will lose the nutrients contained in milk such as protein, vitamins ... due to the decomposition under high temperature. Conversely, if mothers mix milk with cold water, the milk will not be sufficiently ripe and cannot dissolve all the nutrients in the milk.

Therefore, the best temperature to preserve nutrients in milk when mixing is 40 - 50 degrees C. Some Japanese milk for children from 0 to 9 months old also require mixing at 70 degrees C after then add cold water in to neutralize.

Store milk in thermos bottles

This is another very common mistake made by mothers that cause their children to have colic and diarrhea. In fact, milk that is stored in the thermos for such a long time, if it meets the right temperature, will cause bacteria to multiply dozens of times. At this time, what children are drinking is not nutrients from milk but a bunch of harmful bacteria.

Give the child medicine with milk

To ensure safety, it is best to give the baby medicine with filtered water. Because milk is mixed with some drugs such as erythromycin or other antibiotics will destroy the nutritional composition of milk, even causing side effects and other health risks. The mother should only give her baby milk with recommended medicines such as antipyretics.

Above are some notes that mothers need to know so that babies can best absorb the nutrients in milk and help their baby develop comprehensively in both height and weight.

According to experts' calculations, each mother spent 5 years on average to prepare formula for her baby, equivalent to about 600 hours of formula. In addition, waking up every night to prepare baby's milk causes lack of sleep, making it difficult to fall back to sleep. This drains you every time you wake up the next morning. More importantly, mothers must ensure the correct formula, dosage and temperature for the baby to absorb enough nutrients in the milk.
