Child feeding regime for poisoning
Although most babies, if they feel unwell, refuse to eat and drink, it is important for parents to know what it is possible to feed a child during poisoning and vomiting. From the very beginning of the disease it is necessary to organize the following diet:
- The first few hours of crumbs can not be fed, if he has no appetite. At the same time, the baby should be given a copious drink - ordinary water, loose tea, diluted dogrose syrup, dried fruit compote, and pharmacy solutions such as Regidron, Glucosolan, Oralit or BioGaa OPC. Any liquid should be offered to the child on a teaspoon every 5-10 minutes.
- When the baby has an appetite, it should be fed every 2-2.5 hours in small portions to not load the stomach. To the usual diet can only return after 4-5 days after the complete disappearance of symptoms of poisoning.
What to feed the baby after stopping vomiting?
The breastfed should only be fed with breast milk. It is this product that is ideal during the recovery period after food poisoning, as it is easier for others to digest. All other children first need to give rice or buckwheat porridge and a little dried wheat bread.
Then, gradually, you should enter cooked vegetables, starting with carrots and broccoli. In addition, in the first days after poisoning, you can safely eat bananas and baked apples. Before going to bed the baby can be offered non-acid kefir or natural yogurt without various additives.
Fish and meat can be entered into the menu of a child who has suffered food poisoning, no less than two days after the complete cessation of vomiting. First, these products must be prepared in the form of a souffle.
Within 2-3 weeks after recovery, the following foods should be restricted:
- millet, barley and pearl barley;
- plums, grapes, pears;
- any sugar containing dishes;
- fresh bread, buns;
- any vegetables, fruits and berries in raw form and natural juices;
- cream, sunflower and olive oil.
