Question
Can a 10-month-old baby eat things by themselves?
Answer
A 10-month-old baby may not yet be skilled at eating things by themselves. If the child doesn’t like to eat, parents can pay attention to the following points:
- Ensure the child’s comprehensive nutritional intake and avoid picky eating.
- Take the child out for outdoor activities more often to increase physical energy expenditure, which can help stimulate appetite.
- Teach the child how to use their hands to eat and provide appropriate practice opportunities.
- Wash hands frequently to maintain good hygiene habits.
- If necessary, give the child some Spleen-invigorating medicine or supplement zinc elements to help improve appetite.
