What is the CHILDREN'S FEEDING TECHNIQUES? Children's Feeding Techniques at first glance, this may seem like a cookbook, but it's so much more. It's a program that's essential for raising children. It's practical and it will help you, as a new or future mother, make sure that your baby and the entire family get the best nutrition. This guide is based on eight carefully structured chapters and is written in a language that is easy to understand. I think that both dietary habits and tastes are formed early in life. That's why I've created this program, that starts during the baby's first days of life, when breast milk is the main food, continues with the weaning period and guides you up to the time when the child is three years old, is familiar with flavours, can sit at the table on their own and chew without gagging.Why Try the CHILDREN FEEDING TECHNIQUES ? There are seven main reasons to follow the CFT:1. What does healthy infant nutrition mean? This way of feeding your baby correctly isn't just about food, or about a strict diet. This kind of feeding can prevent anaemia, reduce the risk of getting sick during the first 12 months of life, as well as reduce cavities. As a future mother, you can get a head start on this healthy nutrition before you're pregnant by adopting a healthy lifestyle and a balanced diet, rich in healthy foods. This will be very beneficial for the child.2. How important is breast milk during the baby's first months of life? I dedicated an entire chapter to this very important subject. I'm sure you've heard that breast milk has certain nutritional qualities, but I'm convinced that you don't know all its benefits. 3. What do I do if I can't breastfeed? You have to have a very good reason if you don't want to breastfeed. I recommend that you try this amazing experience, both for you, as a mother, and for the health of your child. Is it that you don't want your breasts to sag? Do you feel uncomfortable breastfeeding in front of other people? Are you afraid of exhaustion? There are a few reasons why some women refuse to breastfeed before 6 months. I want to clarify these aspects, so that your baby can benefit from this. 4. Diversification/Baby-led weaning is the first step of the weaning process The baby's grown and curiosity is pushing them to discover new flavours and tastes. These are fake signals that may mislead us, and many parents think that this is when they should introduce solid food into the baby's diet, even if they're not 6 months old yet. Well, waking up in the middle of the night, slower weight gain, lip-smacking or watching the parents carefully during meals are false signals that it's not time for the first stage of the weaning process. This chapter will provide us with all the information that we need for our baby to enjoy a successful baby-led weaning. 5. What benefits can baby-led weaning have?It's the most natural way to feed themselves, it lets babies experiment and explore new foods. They learn about food and eating safely, they gain confidence in themselves and especially in what they eat. They take part in family meals, control their own appetite, learn how to manage various consistencies and how to chew.6. How important are the weaning stages? It's very important to respect the baby's nutritional needs, but not in such a way that we force them to eat solid food within a short period of time. Each stage of the weaning process has a very clearly defined role, that contains a seven-day plan and includes all the important meals, plus snacks. Of course, during each stage of the process, the baby enjoys more and more varied foods and new recipes. 7. Should we a adopt a vegetarian diet for our baby? I've given a lot of attention to this chapter. I'm sure you've heard that vegetarianism isn't recommended before the age of 2 and you don't know what to do.
