Parenting for new parents is not easy, sometimes it takes a lot of effort, no effect, but make the baby cry and make trouble, simply worry broken heart, here are 10 new parents easy to make mistakes, I hope to help you bao Dad Bao mom.
Mistake 1: Always outdress an adult.
In fact, the newborn's ability to regulate its own temperature is not strong as adults, and the body's self-cooling function is not perfect, so it is better to wear less, but also do not wear more. The standard is: how much mom and dad wear, how much to the baby wear, would rather wear less, do not wear more. Medical history is littered with deaths from overheated newborns, but it seems unheardof an accident caused by underdressing.
Mistake 2: Sharing a bed with your mother is easy to take care of.
Many Chinese mothers like to share a bed with their newborns for two reasons: 1. They think it's easier to take care of them at night. 2. I think it is inhumane for a baby to leave his mother's arms when he is just born. In fact, the newborn and mother share the bed but a lot of danger, because the children's awareness of independent activity is relatively weak, in case the mother fell asleep when breastfeeding, it is easy to cause the newborn breathing and suffocation; In addition, the new mother is generally exhausted, sleep at night may sleep more heavily, a turn is not careful, there may be a risk of pressure on the child.
Mistake 3: Sleeping with a quilt and pillow.
Many mothers will feel that the newborn should be like themselves, sleep is to cover the quilt and pillow pillow, who knows, this is also a lot of danger. It is possible to be careless, or a child's arm, a kick, the quilt may cover the child's mouth and nose, blocking breathing and thus dangerous. Cover the quilt and pillow pillow, as well as with the same risk, the newborn's physical structure or different from adult ones and should, before two years of age, they lie on your back, the body and head is in a horizontal line (and adult is the head lower than the body), as if with a pillow, so head will be higher than the body, no matter how thin, how low pillow, Will bring certain adverse effects on the development of newborn bones.
Mistake 4: Having to wake up in the middle of the night to breastfeed.
Many newborns may need breast milk every two hours during the day, but at night may be continuous 5-6 hours, or even longer do not eat, therefore, many mothers worry that children sleep too long at night and hungry, will deliberately wake them up to breastfeed. In fact, this is very wrong, for anyone (including small babies), sleep at night is more important than eating, they can not eat, but they must sleep well at night, of course, the newborn jaundice children except.
Mistake 5: The quieter your sleeping environment, the better.
While adults may need a quiet place to sleep or rest in order to truly relax, this doesn't work for babies. Infant sleep background environment is more noisy better, more noisy they sleep more sweet, in fact, it is not difficult to understand, mom and dad think about living in the mother's stomach for nine months, although the hearing system is in the later development of mature, but the children already accustomed to the mother's stomach blood flow, the heart beats, and all other noisy voice, leaving my mother's belly, Who would not adapt to suddenly being placed in a very quiet environment? So parents really don't have to tiptoe around and do whatever they need to do while their babies sleep, and it's great if there's some music in the background. Since childhood sleep does not need to be in a very quiet environment, but also more conducive to children's later sleep habits and sleep quality.
Mistake 6: Not feeding breastfed babies as needed.
The guiding principle for breast milk should be feeding as needed. Every doctor will say that every two hours is the right time to breastfeed a newborn, but that is an average time, not a blanket time. For children who are breastfed exclusively, it should be feeding on demand and feeding when they are hungry. It is believed that many mothers have the experience of drinking breast milk for many times in a short period of time, and also have the experience of not needing breast milk for 3-4 hours. The frequency of breast milk completely depends on the children themselves.
Mistake 7: Babies need to bathe every day.
Taking a bath every day may be a habit of many parents, but the doctor reminded that the baby is very clean, do not need to take a bath every day, even if the children born in summer, more or less during the day will sweat, but also do not need to take a bath every day, and the sweat can also play a nourishing role on the skin. Newborns would rather be dirty than dry skin from too much bathing. Your baby doesn't have to take a shower every day, and it doesn't have to be shower dew.
Mistake 8: Babies are not allowed to go out before they are a month old.
Influenced by mothers' confinement, many mothers (especially the elderly) will think that the baby is not allowed to go out before the month is up. But in fact, two weeks after the baby is born, the mother can take the baby for a walk in the park around the home for half an hour a day. Such a walk out, not only conducive to the mother's postpartum recovery, but also more conducive to children breathing fresh air.
Mistake 9: Crying is to be fed or hugged.
Many new parents would argue, is a cry like children and want to embrace the, the fact is not the case, for newborn babies, they still won't do anything, baby cry, may be hungry, also may be want to mother's arms, but more likely is that they are a method of "fun", a form of exercise myself, Or there are other needs (dirty diapers, hot and cold), so mothers must have the ability to judge the reason why children cry, a cry to hug or feed, is absolutely not.
Mistake 10: A package that is too tight is not comfortable.
Parents own experience is, wearing tight clothes loose more than comfortable and at ease, but for newborn babies is on the contrary, think of mothers womb space, think again baby gathers the world enjoy the space, it is not hard to understand, for newborns, they wrapped too tight, the more feel safe and comfortable. If wrapped tightly like zongzi, children will sleep very steadfast, on the contrary, children not only frequently woke up, but also sleep very shallow.
