What are the taboos of baby care during the confinement period?

The baby is still in the process of development, so we cannot use our own physical conditions to measure the baby's condition. There are also many taboos in diet in daily life, and there are many precautions in daily life habits. Starting from the confinement period, we should pay attention to the taboos and matters of baby care during the confinement period. Let's learn about these taboos below.

1. Do not use plastic film to make baby diapers. In order to prevent the baby's urine from seeping through the diaper and wetting the baby's pants, many inexperienced mothers put a layer of plastic film on the diaper. The non-breathable plastic film will affect the baby's normal development and cannot vent air well. It will cause the baby's skin to become red and swollen, and even cause bacteria to grow, inflammation and infection, causing diaper rash, and in severe cases, it may be life-threatening.

Second, don’t pinch your baby’s face. Seeing a baby’s white, tender and chubby face always makes people want to pinch it. In fact, this is a very incorrect approach. Or when giving medicine to a baby, pinching the baby's mouth with your hands and forcing it down the drain is also wrong. Since the baby's cheeks are not fully developed and can withstand less force, doing this can easily cause the baby's parotid glands to be squeezed and injured, causing the baby to drool frequently or have oral inflammation. Therefore, mothers should be careful not to let others pinch their baby’s face for fun, as the consequences can be serious.

Third, don’t let your baby sleep among adults. Adults like to put the baby in the middle when they sleep, making the family of three look harmonious and happy. In fact, they are showing off their happiness by using the baby's health. The baby is still very small and consumes a lot of oxygen. Sleeping between two adults, he cannot absorb oxygen well. Instead, he is exposed to the carbon dioxide exhaled by his parents, which can easily cause hypoxia. In mild cases, the baby will sleep uneasily or often cry in the middle of the night. In severe cases, the baby's brain cannot develop normally.

Fourth, you cannot use laundry detergent to wash your baby’s clothes. Washing powder contains substances that affect the baby's health. If you use washing powder to wash your baby's clothes without rinsing them thoroughly, it will cause certain harm to the baby. Therefore, it is best to use baby-specific laundry detergent when washing clothes for your baby.

Fifth, you should not cut your baby’s eyelashes. Some parents naively think that if they cut their baby's eyelashes, the eyelashes will grow long and beautiful in the future. In fact, cutting the baby's eyelashes in this way will not only not make them grow beautiful, but may not grow long at all. It will also cause the baby's eyes to lose the protective barrier and cause eye diseases.

Sixth, do not let your baby wear newly bought clothes directly. New clothes for babies that have just been bought should be washed with baby-specific laundry detergent before they can be worn by the baby. This can wash away the bacteria on the new clothes and soften the clothes, preventing the dyes on the clothes from irritating the baby's skin.

Regarding the word taboo. The most easy-to-understand explanation is that there are some things we should never do when caring for our babies during the confinement period. The above 6 points are all good reminders for us. Have you remembered the above 6 points? Don’t do this, as it will cause certain damage to the baby’s health. Finally, I wish every baby has a healthy body.
