Although the health condition of intestines and stomachs of babies is greatly affected by the innate factors, the postnatal cultivation is also important. The lack of postnatal cultivation can destroy the good innate conditions. Therefore, it is important for parents to know quite well about how to cultivate good intestines and stomachs for babies. 

The first skill is to provide the supplementary food for babies in a right way. The taste bud of babies can be well developed by the supplementation of supplementary foods and the stimulation of various kinds of tastes like grain, fish and vegetables. The development situation of gustatory sense can greatly affect the appetite of babies. Therefore, whether mothers can provide supplementary foods for babies in time also affect the cultivation of good gastric and intestinal functions. At the beginning of the supplementation of supplementary foods, some foods easy to be absorbed should be provided, such as soup and cooked wheaten foods. The intake amount of coke and tea should be controlled, as these drinks contain few nutrients and can affect the normal absorption of other nutrients.

The second skill is to cook suitable foods for babies. The cooked foods should be consistent with the features of the ages of babies. For example, because of the weak indigestive ability of babies, the foods should be cooked thinly and softly. With the development of the chewing ability, the cooked foods can gradually become rough. Some babies do not like to eat vegetables. Mothers should try their best to let their babies eat vegetables. For example, they can add the pieces of vegetables into the soup. In addition, the foods should be diverse so as to supplement balanced and abundant nutrients like calcium and zinc for babies. When the babies are sick, the fluid foods should be provided and the times of breast feeding should be increased.

The third skill is to help babies form the good dietary habit. Some babies are always choosy in foods. In order to get rid of such a bad habit, the parents should set themselves examples to their babies and avoid piddling before the babies. When the babies are having dinner, their seats should be fixed. In addition, parents should help babies form the habits of eating foods regularly.

These three skills are rather helpful to help babies form the good habit of diet and are beneficial to the cultivation of good intestines and stomachs. Parents can follow these skills according to the concrete situations of their babies.
