What should I do if my baby has allergies?

When babies are young, they like to crawl everywhere every day, so they are exposed to relatively more unhygienic things. At this time, their bodies are not well developed, so they are prone to many bad problems, such as skin allergies that we often encounter. Allergies can be caused by food or pollen. But no matter what the cause is, what should we do if the baby has allergies allergic to the whole body?

There are two main reasons why babies have allergies:

One is internal, which is the influence of diet, and the other is external, which is the influence of external allergens. As for the influence of diet on the former, when babies are infants, they drink milk and eat complementary foods. Milk is divided into breast milk and formula. Sometimes mothers do not pay attention to their diet and eat spicy or greasy food, which will lead to milk problems and cause allergies in babies. Secondly, the problem of formula is usually that the formula is too concentrated, or the baby is not used to and adapted to this kind of milk powder.

Then there is the issue of complementary foods, because there is a transition period for babies to go from drinking milk to adding complementary foods. If you don’t grasp the details of adding complementary foods, it can easily cause indigestion in the baby, cause allergies and other complications.

Prevention and care of baby allergies:

1. To the issue of avoiding external contact with allergens. It is even more direct. If you find that your baby is particularly sensitive in this regard, you must try to avoid taking your baby to places with flowers and grass. Once you find that your baby is abnormal, such as irritation, redness, swelling, or discomfort, you must quickly take your baby away from this dangerous place, then quickly take a hot bath with your baby and change into clean clothes. However, many babies are not like this. Just like adults, only a small number of people are allergic to pollen. But you also have to keep one thing in mind. Remember not to let your baby touch flowers and plants directly, as there are many bacteria left by mosquitoes on them, which can easily harm your baby's tender skin.

2. As for complementary foods, mothers are recommended to do sufficient homework before adding complementary foods to their babies. There are many detailed tutorials in books and on the Internet, so don't be casual. Especially in the initial period of adding, you must always pay attention to and take good care of your baby. Once the baby gets used to it and becomes stable, things will be much better. One principle to remember is: from less to more, from thin to thick, from one type to many types. How to transition this process depends on the baby's situation, the baby's preference, bowel movements and other health conditions.

3. Finally, let’s briefly summarize: First, understand the reasons why babies are prone to skin allergies. Internal breast milk, milk powder, and complementary foods may all have an impact. Secondly, the external environment, pollen, bacteria, and unclean home environment may have an impact. Next, corresponding prevention and care solutions are given for reference. In fact, babies have very strong resistance, so we should believe in our babies. I wish all babies in the world grow up happily.
