The 4 most annoying parenting keywords for dads

After the baby is born, it seems that I have completely lost my freedom of movement. Everything has to be done according to the baby's "command", whether he is hungry, cries, or urinates or defecates. Originally, he was asked to help put the child to sleep, but in the end he was having a lot of fun playing with the baby. He was inevitably criticized by the mother, and the father was also helpless. Let's see which parenting cases give fathers a headache.

Keyword 1: Coaxing baby to sleep

This is a job that tests a father's patience. It is estimated that most fathers find it difficult to persevere to the end, especially when the baby is 0-5 months old. During this stage, the baby spends more time with the mother and has not yet formed a sleeping pattern. The mother can use breastfeeding and soothing methods to coax the baby to sleep, but it is indeed a bit too difficult for the father. But when the baby is about one year old, dad comes in handy. You can try various methods, such as reading, talking, trying to change your voice and expression while talking, or talking to the baby while touching his body, etc.

In short, coaxing your baby to sleep is a gradual process. Don’t be discouraged if you don’t do it well at the beginning. You should slowly get used to this task.

Keyword 2: Give your baby a bath

Bath time is a special time for dad and baby. If you want to take a bath with your baby, you must first prepare maternal and child products and baby bath products. And no matter it is a tub bath or a shower, you must be careful to "serve" the baby, because the baby's body will be very slippery when wet. At the same time, you should also avoid your baby from drowning and taking a bath for too long. Dad can sing to his baby while bathing him, and the baby will be very happy.

Keyword 3: Stop the baby from crying

This is probably the most troublesome thing. You have tried all kinds of methods but still cannot calm the baby down. At this time, dads must learn to analyze calmly and find out the reason why the baby is crying, whether it is because the baby is hungry, hot, or acting like a spoiled child, etc. Apart from the reasons of illness, sometimes it is because dads are not with the baby often and the baby is unfamiliar with the family, so he cries. Then you have to spend some time and effort to cultivate your relationship with the baby. For example, you can use some novel little toys to distract the baby's attention, or hold the baby and gently rock him to the music. You can also sing to your baby. He recognizes your voice, and he will feel safe when you hold him.

Keyword 4: Change diapers for babies

You feel at a loss when you see your baby pooping, especially when the baby's poop is loose. How should you change the baby's poop? Do you think it's too dirty? Is it too hard to wipe with wet wipes? These are all excuses. Mothers will also encounter such problems when dealing with them. Now think about how difficult it was for your parents back then. So, now that you are a father, this is what you should do.

You can simply wipe your baby's bottom and then rinse it with running water. Make sure the water level is stable and you must change the water in time so as not to irritate his bottom. Of course, this will also allow the odor to dissipate as soon as possible to avoid it getting everywhere.
