Consejos de alimentación por tema DIFÍCIL COMIENDO COMENZANDO SOLIDOS DIFÍCIL COMIENDO

Bebé de 6 a 12 meses Una vez que su hijo comience a comer sólidos, la forma en que come seguirá cambiando hasta que coma los mismos alimentos que usted. ¡Puede ser frustrante y desafiante saber qué regalar y cuándo! Recuerde que el objetivo es que su bebé aprenda a comer los mismos alimentos que usted. Todo lo que su bebé realmente necesita de usted es exponerse a muchos alimentos diferentes y tener paciencia. Consejos de alimentación para niños de 6 a 12 meses Traiga a su hijo a la mesa para cada comida Las investigaciones muestran que a los niños que comen con sus familias les va mejor en la escuela, las relaciones y la vida en general. Comience este hábito ahora llevando a su hijo a la mesa para cada comida. Alimente a su hijo con alimentos sólidos al mismo tiempo que está comiendo. Tan pronto como sea posible, modifique los alimentos que está comiendo para que usted y su hijo coman los mismos alimentos. Esto reduce el riesgo de ser quisquilloso con la comida más adelante. La alimentación receptiva sigue siendo importante La alimentación receptiva sigue siendo muy importante. El objetivo es que su hijo aprenda a comer cuando tenga hambre y se detenga cuando esté lleno. Escuche siempre a su bebé cuando muestre signos de estar lleno, esto le ayudará a mantener un peso saludable durante toda su vida.

Escuche siempre a su bebé cuando muestre signos de estar lleno, esto le ayudará a mantener un peso saludable durante toda su vida. Los biberones siguen proporcionando la mayor parte de la nutrición de su bebé. Recuerde que la leche materna o la fórmula sigue siendo la fuente de alimento número uno del bebé. No se preocupe tanto por la cantidad de alimentos sólidos que come su bebé. Los bebés obtienen la mayor parte de su nutrición de la leche materna o de la fórmula hasta que cumplen un año. Aún es importante comenzar con alimentos sólidos alrededor de los 6 meses para que su bebé pueda aprender a comer. Dar una fuente de hierro en cada comida A los 6 meses de edad, los bebés amamantados necesitan más hierro que la leche materna. Las mejores fuentes de hierro son las carnes molidas o en puré y el cereal infantil fortificado con hierro. Otros alimentos como los frijoles, las espinacas y las nueces también contienen hierro, pero no se absorben tan bien como el hierro en la carne y los cereales infantiles. Aquí hay un video con más información. Deje que su bebé ensucie. Hacer un lío durante la comida es esencial para el desarrollo de su hijo. Deje que toque la comida e intente alimentarse solo. Dejar que explore la comida con todos los sentidos puede evitar que se vuelva quisquilloso para comer más adelante. Este video de Ellysatterinstitute.org es un gran ejemplo de cómo los bebés se alimentan solos. Sigue probando nuevas texturas Los bebés que comen sólo alimentos en puré durante demasiado tiempo pueden volverse quisquillosos para comer. Para evitar ser quisquilloso al comer, es MUY importante ofrecer constantemente diferentes alimentos, sabores y texturas. Comience con purés y avance a alimentos más espesos y grumosos, bocadillos y, finalmente, alimentos de mesa (cocidos hasta que estén suaves y picados para estar seguros). Haga que su hijo coma los mismos alimentos que usted come lo antes posible. Evite que su hijo se ahogue Siempre haga que su hijo se siente mientras come. Evite darle a su hijo salchichas, uvas enteras, trozos de carne / queso, vegetales crudos y duros, trozos de mantequilla de maní, caramelos duros, goma de mascar y palomitas de maíz. Si sirve salchichas o uvas, asegúrese de cortarlas en cuartos a lo largo. Para servir carnes y verduras a su hijo, cocine hasta que estén blandas y córtelas en trozos de ¼-½ pulgada. Puede triturar o rebanar queso para que sea seguro. Las nueces se pueden picar finamente o se puede untar mantequilla de nueces sobre el pan. Consejos sobre alergias En el pasado, los pediatras recomendaban esperar hasta 1 año para alimentar alimentos altamente alergénicos como huevo, maní, nueces de árbol, pescado, leche de vaca y mariscos. Ahora los médicos recomiendan introducir estos alimentos alrededor de los 6 meses de edad. Ahora se cree que la alimentación regular con estos alimentos a partir de los 6 meses de edad reduce el riesgo de sufrir alergias más adelante. Asegúrese de darle alimentos en una forma que no cause asfixia. first foods Reproducir video Reproducir video 01:16 1,000 Days What should your baby eat in the first year? Promotion of this video is brought to you in part by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. What should your baby eat in his or her first year? Introducing your little one to a variety of food groups, colors and textures is important when your baby is 6-12 months old. • Different food groups. Introduce your baby to a variety of foods including fruits, vegetables, grains, dairy and proteins. • Different colors. Encourage your baby to eat brightly colored foods like green broccoli, orange sweet potato, yellow banana, red strawberries, black beans, and more! • Different textures. Between ages 6-12 months your baby will be ready to try different food textures including smooth, chunky and soft finger foods. But remember, your baby is still learning how to chew and swallow so be sure to watch your baby closely when he or she eats because anything could be a chocking hazard, especially foods that are small and/or hard. As a tip, you can soften foods by cooking them or pureeing them into a smoother texture. By introducing a variety of nutritious foods now you are teaching your baby healthy eating habits that can last a lifetime. So have fun with it. You’ve got this! And remember, talk to your child’s pediatrician or health care provider about any questions or concerns.

Reproducir video Reproducir video 01:51 1,000 Days What foods should my baby avoid? Promotion of this video is brought to you in part by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Before your baby turns 1, there are some foods you should avoid giving him or her. Some foods should be avoided because they could cause sickness or safety concerns, while other foods should be avoided because they are unhealthy. Foods to avoid include: • Cow’s milk: Drinking cow’s milk before age 1 may put your baby at risk for intestinal bleeding. Instead of cow’s milk use breast milk or infant formula before age 1. • Alternative milks: Alternative milks like soy milk, almond milk, rice milk, oat milk, etc. should not substitute breast milk or formula in the first year. • Honey: Honey (even as an ingredient) may cause a serious health problem called botulism. Your child can start to try honey and foods that contain honey only after he or she is 1-year-old. • Sugary drinks: Sugary drinks like fruit juice (even 100% juice), soda, tea/coffee or horchata encourage babies to crave sugary foods and can cause cavities, even before your baby has all of his or her teeth. • Salty foods: Foods that are high in salt, also known as sodium, should be avoided because babies’ kidneys can’t handle too much salt. Check food labels to find foods low in sodium. • Choking hazards: Small, hard foods pose high risks of choking. Common foods that are most risky include nuts, popcorn, hot dogs and whole grapes. As a tip, you can cut grapes into small pieces and then serve them to your baby. And just remember, anything can be a choking hazard so be sure to watch your baby carefully as he or she eats. By knowing the foods to avoid, you can keep your baby healthy and safe! And remember, talk to your child’s pediatrician or health care provider about any questions or concerns.

Comiendo quisquilloso No puedes cambiar a tu hijo, solo puedes cambiarte a ti mismo. STRUCTURE ​ Offer a small meal or snack every 3-4 hours ​ Parent puts 2-4 foods on the table and child chooses from what the parent puts out ​ ​ LIMIT ​ Child cannot have a snack between the set meal/snack times (don’t allow grazing) ​ Child doesn’t get to choose what is served, but can choose from the options the parent serves ​ TRUST Parent encourages child to eat, but does not put pressure on child to eat in any way ​ If the child chooses not to eat, it’s okay! Another meal will be offered in 3-4 hours Structure and Limits for mealtime Kids do best with structure and limits. When they know what to expect, they do a better job of eating. What Does this Look Like? Example #1: ​ 8am Breakfast oatmeal with milk and peanut butter ​ 11am Lunch mac and cheese + canned green beans + orange slices 2 pm Snack applesauce + toast + milk 5pm Dinner chicken + potatoes + peaches + roll 8 - Bedtime Snack toast + jam Example #2 ​ 10 am Breakfast cereal + milk + canned fruit ​ 1am Lunch quesadilla + canned black beans + chopped mango ​ 4 pm Snack toast + cheese slices 7pm Dinner meat and veggie soup, roll, fruit 9 - Bedtime Snack toast + jam ​ Example 3: ​ 6 am Breakfast eggs and toast ​ 9 am Snack apples and peanut butter ​ 12 pm Lunch curry, rice and mango 3 pm Snack cottage cheese and pineapple 6 pm - Dinner hummus, pita bread, cucumbers and watermelon ​ Tips for success: It doesn’t matter what time your meals are, as long as you routinely offer a meal every 3 to 4 hours. ​ Don’t ask your child if they are hungry. Just offer a sit down meal every 3 to 4 hours.​ ​ Avoid asking your child what they want. The parent picks a few foods, put them on the table and the child chooses from whats on the table. ​ Always sit down and eat with your child, avoid eating on the run.​

Preescolar 2-3 años El padre proporciona, el niño decide Es importante que asuma el liderazgo en la alimentación de su hijo en edad preescolar. Usted decide qué alimentos entran en la casa y decide qué se pone en la mesa para las comidas. También es importante que su hijo asuma el liderazgo de su propio cuerpo. Ellos deciden qué comer de las cosas que sirve. También deciden cuánto comer. Haga su trabajo y deje que su hijo haga el suyo. Alimentar a su hijo de esta manera minimiza los problemas de alimentación como los quisquillosos para comer, comer en exceso, comer poco y batallas a la hora de comer. Obtenga más información a continuación. Consejos de alimentación para niños en edad preescolar Establecer horarios de comida y merienda Los niños en edad preescolar pueden esperar para comer con la familia. No permita que su hijo coma bocadillos todo el día. El pastoreo conduce a una alimentación delicada y una nutrición deficiente. Siéntese y coma con su hijo durante el desayuno, el almuerzo y la cena. Tenga entre 1 y 2 refrigerios sentados a horas fijas intermedias. Intente mantener los horarios de las comidas consistentes. Deje que su hijo decida cuánto comer. Es normal que un preescolar coma mucho un día y nada al siguiente. Deje que su hijo decida cuánto comerá en las comidas. Deje que su hijo se deprima cuando haya terminado. Luego di no a los bocadillos después de la comida. Has hecho tu trabajo proporcionando comida y estableciendo límites. No presione a su hijo para que coma, es mejor dejar que él decida cuánto y qué comer. di no a bocadillos entre comidas Además de alimentar a su hijo con el desayuno, el almuerzo y la cena, debe decir no al pastoreo entre comidas. Su hijo no tendrá hambre de alimentos saludables a la hora de comer si come bocadillos todo el día. Si tiene problemas para que su hijo coma bien, lo primero que debe intentar es eliminar los bocadillos. permitir solo agua entre comidas No permita que su hijo lleve una taza para sorber con leche o jugo por la casa. Esto limita su apetito por alimentos nutritivos a la hora de comer y puede provocarle caries. limite los refrescos y los jugos Tenga solo agua y leche a mano. El jugo y los refrescos tienen demasiada azúcar para su niño en edad preescolar, guárdelos para ocasiones especiales. El jugo y los refrescos pueden causar caries. Nunca permita que su hijo beba jugo o refresco todo el día. cambiar a leche baja en grasa A los 2 años, su bebé está listo para la leche baja en grasa. Elija 1% o 2% de grasa en lugar de leche entera. no compre alimentos especiales para niños Alimente a su hijo con los mismos alimentos que usted come. No compre yogur para niños o nuggets de pollo con forma de dinosaurio. Estos alimentos tienen demasiada sal y azúcar agregada. Los niños pueden comer todo lo que comen los adultos, incluso alimentos picantes. Si compra alimentos separados para su hijo, puede esperar tener un comensal quisquilloso que se niega a comer lo que usted come. Prevenga ese problema ofreciéndole a su hijo los mismos alimentos que le gusta comer. evitar que su hijo se ahogue Siempre haga que su hijo se siente mientras come. Evite darle a su hijo alimentos duros y redondos. Corta las salchichas o las uvas en cuartos a lo largo. Cocine las verduras y las carnes hasta que estén blandas y córtelas en trozos de ¼-½ pulgada. Unte un poco de mantequilla de maní sobre el pan. Pica las nueces en trozos pequeños.
