Another bite
Babies who have started to eat complementary foods are also prone to over feeding. Many mothers or elders like to coax their children to 'take another bite' in the process of feeding their babies, but this often causes their babies to overeat when they are full. Don't look down on this "one bite". In the long run, the baby's stomach is propped up, and the food consumption is out of control.
Snacks are too strong
Snacks are less nutritious than meals, but they may be more calories. Therefore, babies who eat too much snacks are more likely to get fat, and they will also be partial and picky. As a supplement to the dinner, snacks are not inedible, but they must be moderate, and remember to eat between meals.
