Feeding test tube babies within 15 days
IVF is a kind of baby that is fertilized and bred in the laboratory through assisted reproductive technology. Special attention and care should be given to IVF feeding, especially in the first 15 days after discharge. The following is a detailed description of IVF feeding within 15 days:
The Importance of Breastfeeding
Breastfeeding is particularly important for the healthy development of test tube babies. The digestive system of the newborn is not fully developed. Breast milk contains rich immune substances, nutrients and anti pathogen ingredients, which can effectively improve the immunity and resistance of the baby.
In the first few days after the birth of a test tube baby, the secretion of breast milk may be less, but the baby needs to suck in time to stimulate the breast to secrete more milk. The sucking skills of IVF babies may not be as skilled as those of babies born naturally, which requires additional support and guidance from mothers. Try to use tools that help babies suck, such as nipple suction and placement devices.
At the same time, mothers should pay attention to maintaining reasonable diet and nutrition, taking in enough water and protein to provide adequate breast milk.
Importance of regular feeding
Test tube babies need to be fed regularly to ensure their nutrition intake and normal operation of body circulation.
In the first few days after the birth of test tube babies, the feeding interval may be shorter and the amount of each feeding is smaller. With the growth of the baby and the development of the digestive system, the feeding interval can be gradually extended, and the amount of each feeding is gradually increased.
According to the suggestions of doctors or nurses, the feeding schedule of infants can be formulated and fed on time. When feeding, keep the room temperature appropriate, and put the baby in a comfortable position to avoid distraction or other interference during feeding.
Reasonable diet composition
The diet composition of test tube babies should be reasonably matched, including carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins and minerals.
In the first few days of a short feeding interval, infants mainly eat breast milk or formula milk powder, which already contains the required nutrients. Appropriate formula can be selected according to the age and growth status of the baby. With the growth and needs of infants, complementary foods can be introduced appropriately.
In the first 15 days after the birth of test tube babies, breast milk or formula milk powder should be the main source of diet, and the type and amount of complementary food should be appropriately increased, such as rice flour, fruit paste, etc. The addition of complementary foods should be determined according to the age and digestive ability of the baby. At the same time, it is necessary to observe the baby's reaction to different foods to avoid allergy or indigestion.
