July 1, 2010 - PRLog -- The baby's needs of water is large than adults' which alculated according to the weight, because children with high metabolism and highly demand for water a day. Children under the age of 1 year daily requirement of water is 120-160 ml per kilogram of body weight, while the adults' needs of water is 40 ml per kilogram of body weight. Therefore, in addition to normal diet, the child may have to constantly drink water. But drinking water is a stress to the children, and parents should note the following:
1. Do not feed the newborns with sweet water, and artificially fed infants can be fed sugar water between two meals, but not too sweet. Most parents will feel by their own standard, after taste of that sweet water and considered the sweet is ok. In fact, the newborn's taste is much more sensitive than adults. When adults feel that sweet is suitable, but the baby will feel the sweet is too overdone. It is not good for eating more sugar for newborn, with a high concentration of sugar water fed newborns, which could speed up bowel movements at first, but soon became inhibited, so that lead the stomach to fullness.
2. The best drink is plain water for baby,  but some parents believe that certain nutritional value than boiled water, and the children love drink. So parents often use a variety of novel and expensive sweet fruit juice or other drinks instead of water to quench their children. In fact, this is not right. First of all, even those who called the natural fruit juice, which including limited protein and fat, and vitamins are often destroyed during processing. So want to drink to replenish nutrients is unlikely. Second, most drinks contain flavor, pigments, preservatives, additives on the adverse human health. In addition, the beverage which contains a lot of sugar and more of the dielectric, not as boiled water to drink so soon after leaving the stomach, but will stay a long time, have a negative stimulus on the stomach. So when the children thirsty, give him something plain water to drink just. If in summer, the loss of a salt with sweat, you can add some salt into the water.
3. Do not give children the water to drink before meals, it can dilute gastric juice and is not conducive to the digestion of food. If children drink with more water, which will make filling the stomach, producing satiety, influence appetite and reduce food intake. Appropriate way is let children drink a small amount of water in half an hour before meal, in order to increase its mouth saliva and helps digestion.
4. Do not drink water before going to bed. Younger children to sleep at night after dark, they are neither complete control of urination. If drink before the bedtime, it will easy to enuresis.
5. Do not give children a lot of ice water. Because the ice water as easily lead to gastric mucosal vasoconstriction. Which not only affect the digestion, and even may lead to gastrointestinal spasm.
6. Do not drink water while eating. Which will affect digestion and absorption of food if the baby drink water when eat. Constant, it can lead to gastrointestinal disorders. There are two digestion of mouth, it is first chewing mechanical digestion, and second, through the decomposition of saliva for chemical digestion. If eat and drink plenty of water, while water will dilute the saliva, weaken the role of saliva in digestion, while too easy for food to enter without a dental chew on gastrointestinal, increasing the burden of the digestion.
7. Children should not drink tea and coffee. Because the tea and coffee with the caffeine which is a central nervous system stimulants, children's nervous systems are not developed to be perfect, especially sensitive to this exciting role, drinking tea after appears excitement, irritability, rapid heartbeat, can not sleep and other adverse reactions. In addition, tea contains tannic acid will combine with iron to form easily absorbed substances affect the absorption of iron.
