Lure for Komarovsky has recently become a very popular topic for conversation among pregnant women and happy mothers babies. Dr. Komarovsky got fame as one of the best and charismatic pediatricians of the post-Soviet period. To his advice, not only young mothers listen, but also those who decided to have a second or even a third child. He has his own view on how to properly start feeding kids. First, he advises doing this not before the sixth month of the child's life. Secondly, it considers that it is more important for the mother to pay attention to her nutrition balance than to introduce adult food in the fourth month (as most parents do).

Introduction of complementary foods by Komarovsky

Before you delve into the charts and tables that Dr. Komarovsky offers to young parents, it is necessary to understand what is complementary. Many mothers do not quite understand the meaning of this word, especially since pediatricians usually call them any additional feeding. For example, if a woman has too little milk and she is offered milk formulas for a child, then this is not complementary, but complementary. Milk mixture, by the way, in this case, you can safely replace the milk of domestic animals.

If you are trying to add "adult food" to the baby's diet, which will complement the dairy, then this is a lure. According to Komarovsky this must necessarily happen on time. In addition, it is important to choose the right diet, so that the child better wean from the chest.

Introduction of complementary foods for Komarovsky should begin at six months of age, despite the fact that many adults (and even pediatricians) recommend to accustom to regular food as early as possible. But if you wish your child health, then it's worth forgetting about obsolete nutrition schemes and keeping up to date.

Why was it only 20-30 years ago that the lure started earlier? Dr. Komarovsky gives this an understandable and simple explanation. The fact is that when in the Soviet times the woman was finishing milk, the baby was added milk of animals or various mixtures. For hygienic purposes they were boiled, which led to the evaporation of all the necessary vitamins and minerals. This made the infants unhealthy, he developed hypovitaminosis and lack of weight. Even those nursing mothers who had enough milk, at that time did not eat well enough to provide their child with everything necessary. That's why they tried to start feeding food even in two or three months.

Lure for Komarovsky should start with the use of a small number of products, because caution here does not hurt. Do not forget to supplement that meal, which for the child is considered more familiar (milk formula or mother's milk). You should carefully monitor the reaction of a small organism: does the rash appear, does the baby sleep well and so on. If there are no negative manifestations, you can gradually increase the dosage. If there are problems, it is better to consult a doctor and put aside the lure.

Do not forget that it is better not to start adding new products immediately after a child's illness or after vaccinations. Do not force the baby and feed the food force.

The complementary feeding table for Komarovsky

The complementary feeding table for Komarovsky helps to better understand how to properly add a child to food with different "adult foods". But do not think that the doctor gives a full-fledged scheme with columns and lines, in which special rules are prescribed, suitable for everyone in a row. "Table" is an inaccurate description. Komarovsky gives only advice, but every parent should pay attention to the reaction of his child and act in accordance with it. In addition, the above-described complementary scheme is quite understandable.

The first product the doctor recommends to enter is low-fat kefir. Sour-milk food is the best for starting complementary foods because it has a very similar composition to that already familiar to your baby. In addition, bacteria that live in fermented milk products help the growing organism to cope with infections faster and better. They also reduce the load on the young liver and improve digestion.
