nutritional guidelines for this age group are marked by technical reports and recommendations of the Organization of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the Nutrition Committee of the European Academy of Pediatrics and the Nutrition Committee of the European Society of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition (ESPGAN), and adapt to three distinct stages: dairy Period. As the only food milk, human milk is artificial. From birth to 4-6 months. During this period, the infant is able to suck and swallow, but has not yet developed the ability to digest certain proteins and their kidneys are not fully developed.
transition period, weaning or BEIKOST . The minimum age to start Beikost is from the fifth or sixth month of life. During this period they are introduced carefully nondairy, adequately prepared, consistent and quantity, not to alter the rate of gastrointestinal and renal maturation and progressive neuromuscular development.
digestive maturation period. Power must be adapted to the capacity digestive and physiological state of development, with gradual introduction of new foods.
BEHAVIORAL CHANGES TO FOOD
Both mother and baby acquired in the hospital where he was born a certain feed rate. However, this may not be that the infant will feel like in nature, which during the first week at home, the mother usually meet demands that it had in the hospital and will lead you to change the hours that should give him nurse, the length of the shot and even how it should be.
At birth, the child is ready to receive liquid food, which she did with the help of sucking and swallowing reflexes that allow the extraction of milk and its passage into the stomach.
However, semisolid or solid foods are rejected by the thrust of the tongue or extrusion reflex, which disappears between four and six months, enabling the start of supplementary feeding.
About seven or eight months are beginning to appear rhythmic chewing movements, which together with the appearance of the first teeth allows the gradual incorporation of food semisolid and the increasing involvement of children in the act of eating. Between nine and twelve months takes little food and begins to feed itself. Thus he shows ability to take food by the mouth alone but is unable to eat by itself to at least two years of age, that time when the vision is fully established, allowing a complete oculomotor coordination.
During this time period should encourage the development of the senses so that you can pass suction bucket, which will taste better, and change the texture, grinding fluid, and when I have cutting teeth.
From the second half, eating is essential to teach in the broadest sense, from chewing up the acquisition of correct eating habits.
