When i was a mother and father, i knew that the baby was a learning-by-doing, pedal-by-pants correction. From the moment of the baby's birth, eating and drinking, washing and dressing, everything is hidden. Many of the new parents around me have spent thousands of dollars to take care of the baby, buy internet-based care products, sympathosis, superstitious old-age experiences, and have suffered: red-ass ass, skin allergies, stomach disorders, sleep disorders, and even running hospitals because of wrong care。
Stepping through the pits and paying school fees makes sense: baby care is not the more sophisticated, the faster it is, the more blindly it is, the more hurt it is in some places. Today, in conjunction with paediatrician advice, maternal and child health and real parenting experience, the five places where babies are most vulnerable to over-care, mis-care, big white words, real stuff, so that new parents don't spend any money, make babies suffer less, and use it。
I. The door and the head: don't squeez, don't shampoo, don't stylish
The head of the baby, especially the door, is the most stressful part of the newest parents and the easiest to care for blindly. Many of the older people say that “the door cannot be touched or washed”, and others feel that the dirt of the door needs to be cleaned up and flat-headed。
First, the door is not a “no-go zone”, but a vulnerable area requiring moderate care. There are two soft areas with no skull cover on the head of the newborn, with the front door closed at 1-1. 5 years of age and the back door closed at 2-3 months of age, where only the skin and the brain are protected, with pressure, bumps, hard stains, which are extremely damaging to the brain, causing infection, haemorrhaging, and the consequences are not conceivable。
It is a very dangerous act for many parents to use their hands, brush their hair with a comb, soak them with soap, and even soften them with a softener. It is the corrosive gland that is formed by a mixture of genre and dust, and it cuts through the skin, which causes cystitis, headaches and acute inflammation, which affects the health of the inside of the skull。
A number of parents also buy stereotyped pillows and corrective helmets to sleep with the baby “blank” “round head”, not only at a high price, but also at a low cost. The child's spine is straight within the age of one year, lying flat on the same side of the head, spine and back, with a pillow that lifts up the head, oppresses the neck, increases the risk of asphyxiation, sudden death of the baby; and force-fixing of the sleeping position leads to deformities in the head and rigid muscles in the neck。
Correct care:
1. Soften for 15 to 20 minutes with baby pet oil, tea oil, and light wash with warm water, several washes of which are not hard
2. Head cleaning: 2-3 baby showers per week, daily hot water cleaning, no deliberate removal of the foetal resin and self-defeating
3. Head-type care: no pillows, no stereotyped pillows at one year of age, daily alternations, right- and right-side beds to avoid a long-term bias towards one side, with the healthiest natural heads
Day-to-day protection: wear a loose cotton hat, avoid bumping into the door with sharp objects, guard the head with your hands while bathing, and move gently。
Skin and buttocks: don't be too clean, don't paint, don't paint
The skin thickness of the baby is only one third for adults, the barrier is weak and the fear of over-care is greatest. Many parents are afraid of the baby's dirty nature, bathing several times a day, coating their bodies with skin, powdering their butts and putting all kinds of ointment on their butts, which leads to worse care。
First pit: excessive cleaning to break the skin barrier. Frequent daily bathing, bathing, and rinsing will wash off the natural oil on the skin surface of the baby, resulting in dry skin, red skin, skin rise, rash and allergie. Parents also wipe the baby's face, wipe your body with rough towels, rubbing it over and over and over again, damaging the tender skin。
The second pit: powdered baby. Old people used to use tummy powder, tinkle powder to protect their ass from red ass, to go to tampons without knowing that tinkles hit their sweat, urine crumbs, clogged their hairs and reinforced their ass, and powder was inhaled by the baby, irritating their throats, lungs, causing cough, asthma, and the girl's private body was covered with powder, which could also increase the risk of gynaecological infections。
The third pit: the coating of skin, ointment. When the baby's skin comes up with red dots and rashes, parents buy mesh cream, rash cream and even adult ointment, products containing hormones, perfumes and preservatives, which increase the skin burden and lead to hormonal dependence on dermatitis and allergies。
Red ass is a common problem for babies, and 90 per cent of red ass is not “not cared for”, but over-cared and mistreated: wet or wet, dry or dry, dirty powder, wipe with wet towels, can keep their butts wet and hot for long periods and trigger diaper rashes。
Correct care:
1. Frequency of cleaning: one warm bath per day in the summer, one in the winter, two to three days, two to three baths per week, without daily use
2. Prohibition of the use of tungsten powder: it is more important than anything to keep the air dry, regardless of body or hip
Red fart care: cleaning with hot water every time a defecation takes place, drying with soft veils (no friction), drying with full drying with a thin ass-protected ointment, changing urine and not getting wet, and proper farts during the day
4. The principle of skin protection: only a fragrance-free, alcohol-free, hormonal baby is protected by wet cream, skin is normally covered with a thin skin, rashes are treated first and no medicines are used。
Iii. Oral and nasal cavities: no hardness, no wiping, no blind cleaning
The baby's mouth and nasal cavity are the first line of defence in the respiratory and digestive tracts, and many parents feel that they need to clean their noses, mouths, and teeth, resulting in damage to the baby's mucous membranes and causing infection。
First, the nasal cavity: it's common for a baby to have a moustache, a rich vein, a nasal plug and a nasal turd. Parents shed their noses with their hands and clamps, with their cotton stickers, while they cut through their nasal mucus, causing severe nasal inflammation, nasal inflammation and even pushing their nasal turd deeper and blocking the respiratory tract. Parents are also overwashed with saline sprays, destroying normal strains within their nasal cavities and reducing resistance。
In addition to the oral cavity, the white dots on the teeth of the newborn child and the white membrane in the oral cavity are normal physiological phenomena which can be removed by themselves. Many old people wipe salt water with gauze, rice water, and even with needles, easily cut through mouth mucous membranes, causing sepsis, oral infections and endangering the health of the baby as a result of bacterial incursions. There are also parents who are too early to clean the baby's mouth and over-reliance on their nipples, affecting the development of the toothbed。
In addition, a child under one year of age is not deliberately fed with water or clean tongues. The water in breast milk or formula milk is sufficient to meet the demand, and the water will take up the stomach capacity, affect the intake of milk and increase the kidney burden; the moss is the residue of milk stains, which need not be deliberately cleaned up, and can be fed with two warm water mouths。
Correct care:
1. Cleaning of the nasal cavity: a nose spray/dropping with a baby's biological salt water, softening of the nasal tusk, a light inhaler, or when the baby sneezes itself and excretes itself, never deep, hard
2. Oral care: horse teeth, mouth-white membranes, non-painted, non-treated, waiting for self-release; two warm-water, clean mouths after breastfeeding, brushing teeth softly with a finger brush and without toothpaste
3. Denunciation: no honey, sugar, cool tea, no horse teeth, no moss, no adult tampons。
Iv. Four limbs and body: no legs tied, no nipples squeezed, no thick covers
Many of the older “traditional care” are pitware: legs tied, nipples squeezed against internal trapping, coated against colds, which are not only useless, but also cause permanent harm to the baby。
First fatal error zone: legs tied, candle packs. Many parents wrapped the baby in tight wraps and tied their legs with ropes and felt that they could make their legs straight and guard against surprises. In fact, the o-legs after the birth of the baby are physiological phenomena, with self-correction at around the age of two, not only because they do not alter the leg, but also because they limit the activity of the limbs, affect the circulation of the blood and, in serious cases, lead to the disfigurement of the hip, the development of the bones; too tight a package can cause heat syndrome, high fever, dehydration, oxygen deficiency and even endanger life。
The second risk area: nipples. Both male and female babies are born with slight breast swelling and secretions, which is normal for maternal hormones and disappears after a few weeks. Forced milking by the elderly can disrupt breast tissue, cause breast inflammation, dents in the nipples, and even causes an abnormal development of the breast, which may affect the breastfeeding of the female child when she grows up。
Third common error zone: too many, too thick. The baby is metabolismed faster than adults, and parents always feel the baby cold, in layers and layers, with thick covers and no air conditioning during the summer. As a result, the baby has gills, rashes and repeated fevers, which cause thermal syndrome. It's only natural to judge the baby's cold, to touch his hands and feet, to touch his neck, his back, to be warm and not sweaty。
In addition, early delivery by parents to the baby with a walker, a lift and urine can cause damage to the spinal column, hips, anal biceps and affect development。
Correct care:
1. Four limb care: free of legs, candles, nipples, free movement of the baby, easy clothing, and bone development
2. Clothes principle: wear one less than an adult and warm and sweaty back of the neck, with air conditioning (24-26°c) in the summer, without covering
3. Developmental care: for a period of six months, no holding, no pissing, no walking at the age of one year, and following the natural development of the baby。
V. Feeding and sleeping: don't make up, don't make up, don't make fun of yourself
Food and sleep are at the heart of child support, and these are the two places where parents are most likely to be blindly cared for and spend money and hurt。
Zone no. 1: feeding the poor: feeding them early and feeding them. Many parents give the baby rice powder, egg yolk, meat soup in four months and feel that the milk is not nutritious, as a result of which the baby's stomach is not well developed, leading to indigestion, allergies, diarrhoea and even iron absorption. Who explicitly recommends that exclusive breast milk/formulation feeding within six months, with the addition of supplementary feeding after six months, will only increase the stomach burden if added prematurely。
Zone ii: feeding calcium blindly, dha supplementing, various health items. When the baby wakes up at night, is bald and sweaty, parents feel that they lack calcium, buy calcium chips and calcium powder, have enough milk, have no lack of calcium at all, and blind calcium can lead to constipation, kidney stones, and influence zinc and iron absorption. What is really needed is vitamin d, which is 400 uis per day after birth to promote calcium absorption, and other health-care items are not bought by the wind。
Sleep loss zone: swinging, hugging, milk sleeping. When the baby cries, holds up, sleeps with milk, not only to create dependency, the baby does not sleep on its own, the parents are exhausted and the baby's syndrome is more dangerous: the baby's brain is not mature, severe shaking leads to brain haemorrhage, retina damage, light sleep addiction, vomiting, severe cerebral palsy, death。
There are also parents who regularly feed, and the baby is hungry and asleep and wakes up, disrupts the baby's natural rhythm and leads to intestine gas, milk and sleep disorders。
Correct care:
1. Feeding: exclusive breast milk/formulation within six months, without water or food; six months starting with high iron powder, adding one by one and observing allergies; daily refilling of vitamin d with calcium and health supplements
2. Sleep: a bed that sleeps alone within one year of the age of one, sleeps side by side, without shaking, sleep without hugging, sleep without milk, and is designed to sleep on its own; and is fed on the basis of need, without imposing time limits
3. Cursed: no salt, sugar, honey, no feeding for adults at one year of age, no alternate use of defunct medicine, and no fever。
Scientific care is the best love for the baby
On the way to raising a child, we have all been anxious, blind, and have spent thousands of dollars on lessons to understand that the best care is not blind care, not overcare. The baby's body has its own pattern of development, and it is not “excessive intervention” that parents are required to do, but to adapt to regularity and science。
There is no need to buy expensive care, no need to believe in old age, no need to pursue perfect parenting, just remember: gentle and clean, moderate care, respect for development, and timely access to health care. Avoiding these five care pits not only saves a lot of money, but also keeps the baby from suffering and growing up healthy。
New parents, stop paying iq taxes, spend your money on knives and put love in the right place. There are no shortcuts, science, simplicity and security are the best ways to care for children. I think it's useful to forward it to my newest parents, to keep more babies out of care and grow up happy
