Symptoms of baby drinking too much water

summary

Parents may have seen a lot of suggestions on how much water their babies drink on the Internet. They even listed in detail how much water they should drink when they are six months old, one year old, two years old or three years old. Then their parents began to work hard to figure out whether their babies drink enough water. In fact, parents don't have to be too nervous. The human body is very elastic and self-adjusting. When we are thirsty, the brain will release information and say to the body, "I need water now, I'm thirsty!" So as long as there is water to drink at home, a child who is thirsty will naturally drink water, even if he may drink very little. Let's talk about the symptoms of baby drinking too much water

Symptoms of baby drinking too much water

1. The water needed by the body is not completely replenished by drinking water. For example, a child from six months to one year old drinks very little water, because the water he needs can be taken from food. There is a lot of water in the milk that the child drinks, but many mothers forget to include the amount of milk, so they think that the baby drinks too little water.

2. Don't force children to drink water, it will only cause adverse effect, let them hate to see the bottle or cup, throw away the bottle or bite the pacifier or straw on purpose

3. Parents should not bribe their children to drink water with fruit juice, honey, chocolate, biscuits and other snacks. As long as they have a special water cup, bottle or straw cup ready at home, they will drink when their children are thirsty.

matters needing attention

It should be noted that forced drinking of water will cause problems and even water poisoning. Drinking water can also be toxic? This is because the body absorbs a lot of water in a short period of time, and the normal salt content in the body is diluted, resulting in low sodium ion and electrolyte imbalance. In the early days, it was very popular to give babies red baby water to get rid of fetal poison. In fact, most of it was just sugar water. When the baby was irrigated with water, he couldn't refuse to drink it. As a result, he began to lose appetite and spasm. In serious cases, he would be in a coma or even die. Be careful.
