BENEFICIOS DE ALIMENTACION AL PECHOBENEFICIOS DE ALIMENTACION AL PECHO
La leche materna provee la alimentación ideal para tu bebé, además de tener otros beneficios para la madre. La Academia Americana de Pediatría recomienda que los bebes sean exclusivamente amantados durante los primeros seis meses de vida, y que continúen siendo amamantados durante el primer año de vida mínimo.
• Puedes obtener ayuda en tu centro de salud, hospital local, o de un especialista en lactancia materna. No por que amamantar sea natural quiere decir que no necesites ayuda.
• Evita ofrecerle biberones y chupones a tú bebé hasta que esté amamantando sin problemas.
COMIDASCOMIDAS
• Tú bebé aprende muchas cosas a la hora de comer.
• Ten paciencia y pon atención a las necesidades de tú bebé.
• Nunca obligues a tú bebé a que se termine la leche materna, la fórmula, ni su comida. Permite que tú bebé decida que cantidad debe comer.
• Cuando le des el biberón a tú bebé, abrázalo o mantenlo cerca de ti; nunca lo dejes sólo con la botella.
• Nunca permitas que tú bebé se quede dormido con el biberón en la boca. Esto le puede causar problemas dentales.
• Ofrécele variedad de alimentos, colores y sabores; principalmente de frutas y verduras.
• Limita las galletas, panes y tortillas.
• No le pongas sal, azúcar, grasa o especias a la comida del bebé. Los bebes son más sensibles al sabor que los adultos.
• Los bebés no necesitan postres como pudines, flanes y gelatinas. Mejor dale fruta de postre.
• Permite que tu bebé explore la comida con sus manos; esto le ayuda a comer independiente.
• No guardes la comida que sobre en el plato de tú bebé. Su saliva puede echar a perder la comida y causarle diarrea.
• Alimenta a tú bebé en un área que sea fácil de limpiar. Es normal que ensucien cuando aprenden a comer.
• Enséñale a tú bebé a que sólo coma cuando tenga hambre y a que juegue para entretenerse.
No le des a tú bebé jugos, sodas ni otras bebidas endulzadas. El azúcar puede provocar serios problemas dentales, caries y obesidad.
INTRODUCCION DE NUEVOS ALIMENTOSINTRODUCCION DE NUEVOS ALIMENTOS
• Dale un sólo nuevo alimento a la vez.
• Dale el nuevo alimento por 5 días para ver si no tiene reacciones alérgicas (ver que alimentos evitar).
• Puede ser que le tengas que introducir el mismo alimento varias veces antes de que lo acepte.
• No mezcles diferentes frutas o verduras juntas. Deja que tú bebé conozca los diferentes colores, olores, sabores y textura de cada alimento.
ALIMENTOS QUE SE DEBEN EVITARALIMENTOS QUE SE DEBEN EVITAR

• Productos hechos con nueces y cacahuates, como la mantequilla de cacahuate
Los siguientes alimentos se les pueden ATORAR a niños menores de 4 años:
No le des a tú bebé alimentos que contengan miel o jarabe de maíz (incluyendo cereales y galletas). Se pueden enfermar de botulismo, lo que puede causar la muerte.
