How are you feeling post getting
treated for IVF? I know all the complications and struggles
you had to go with, but now don’t be stressed, now that the little
one is with you, be happy and enjoy your time with him/her.
I know going through infertility
is not easy (many of my near and dear ones have gone through it).
But, you came across all the struggles, happily did all the tests and
everything. But now, there is a new struggle which awaits you, yes
you got it right. You have to start feeding your tiny tot but are
scared of doing the same. Don’t worry; keep reading till the end to
know how you can feed your little one properly.
A large number of us get stressed
over the sustaining of our infants. We will, in general, give them
bottles supposing them to be hungry, yet little do we understand the
eventual outcomes caused by container feed. Let us not ignore the
risks of overloading infant, which won't simply turn out to be risky
for them when they are babies, yet keep hampering them over the long
run also.
Indications of overfeeding
*Trouble sleeping
*Short tempered baby
*Gas and acid reflux gets all the
more aggravated I the little one
*More weight gain, than desired
* Many wet nappies
Symptoms
Symptoms connected with overfeeding
are many times mistaken for colic, milk allergy, or lactose
intolerance.
Why does baby overeat?
The baby overeats due to many
reasons:
*Lack of sleep disturbs the hormonal
balance which is responsible for hunger pangs, which result in
increased appetite.
*Newborn has limited potential for
knowing when to stop when their tiny tummy is full or over full.
*Our brain takes time to know when
to stop. Speed feeding boosts the chance of baby will take in more
milk than their capacity to digest.
Conclusion
So it is up to you, as parents to
know the signs of baby's needs and hunger patterns. Don’t give when
there is no need to. Don’t force your baby to have more than
enough.
