Diet for IVF infants on the 10th day
The birth of IVF baby is an important moment for families, especially in the first 10 days of the baby. Diet plays a vital role. A reasonable diet can provide nutrition and promote the healthy growth of infants. In this article, we will discuss the diet of test tube infants on the 10th day, including the choice of milk powder, water quality requirements, water consumption control and the time of adding complementary foods.
Choice of milk powder
The selection of milk powder suitable for infants is the key to ensure that their nutritional needs are met. Generally speaking, formula is the best choice. When purchasing formula milk powder, pay attention to the production date, shelf life and formula composition of the product. At the same time, determine the age range of milk powder for infants to ensure that the proportion of nutrients in milk powder is suitable for infants' growth and development.
In addition, breast milk is another good choice for IVF babies in the first 10 days after birth. Breast milk is rich in nutrients, which helps to strengthen the development of the infant's immune system and digestive function. For infants who cannot obtain breast milk, formula recommended by professional doctors can be used instead.
Water quality requirements
On the 10th day of IVF, the purity of water quality is important. Therefore, the source of water supply for infants must be of high quality. The best choice is to use pure water or boiled tap water.
Water sources containing bacteria, pollutants or heavy metals should be avoided. Water pollution may have adverse effects on the health of infants, and may lead to diarrhea and digestive problems.
Drinking water volume control
Controlling the amount of water babies drink is vital to their health. In the first 10 days of IVF, the number of feedings and the amount of water to be drunk each time should follow the doctor's recommendations to ensure that the baby gets enough nutrition but not too much.
Usually, the number of times of feeding can be between 8 and 12 times a day, and the amount of water for each feeding depends on the needs of the child. With the growth of test tube babies, the amount of drinking water will gradually increase.
Regularly observe the amount of water and urine of the baby, and consult the doctor in time if there is any abnormality.
Time of adding complementary food
In vitro babies usually begin to add complementary foods 4 to 6 months after birth. During this period, breast milk or formula milk powder should be the main food source, and complementary food is only used to guide the taste of infants and train oral muscles.
When adding complementary food, it is necessary to select food materials that are easy to digest and absorb, such as rice soup, fruit puree and vegetable puree. When trying complementary food for the first time, it should be added gradually to observe the baby's appetite and reaction, and avoid adding too much complementary food too early to avoid discomfort to the baby's digestive system.
summary
The diet of IVF babies in the first 10 days after birth is crucial to their growth. Proper selection of milk powder, ensuring the safety of water quality, reasonable control of water consumption and timely addition of complementary foods are the keys to ensure the healthy development of infants. Parents should work closely with doctors to understand and follow the correct feeding methods to ensure the healthy and happy growth of IVF.
