The organs of a newborn are not fully developed after birth. During this period, the newborn needs to grow in a cozy environment. Parents tend to speak loudly. Talking loudly next to a newborn for a long time will easily affect the baby's sleep. It will also easily cause a certain impact on the newborn's eardrum. Parents should pay attention to this.
1. If you simply speak loudly, it will not affect the baby, but it may scare or panic the baby. In this case, the baby will have restless sleep. 2. If people speak loudly very close to the baby's ears, it will have a certain impact, because the child's hearing has not yet fully developed, and too much noise will have an adverse effect on the child.
1. Pay attention to supporting the baby's head Newborn babies have big heads and small bodies. Their neck muscles are not yet fully developed and they do not have the strength to support the weight of their entire heads. Therefore, when holding your baby, be sure to support his head to avoid hurting his lower body. When holding your baby, you can hold him a little tighter, which can enhance his sense of security. 2. The lights in the newborn's room should not be turned on often at night. Many young parents like to keep lights on in the room all night to facilitate feeding and changing diapers for their newborns. This is not good for the healthy growth of the baby. Not long ago, a neonatal medical research team at a British hospital reported that newborns who are exposed to light regardless of day or night often have problems with sleeping and feeding. When a first-time mother faces a newborn, she doesn't need to panic too much. As long as she gathers more experience, the child can be easily taken care of. However, it is better not to speak loudly to a newborn baby, otherwise it will easily scare the baby and make the baby sleep uneasily, so the mother should try to lower her voice when speaking.
1. Baby's sleep and sleeping position We all know that sleeping posture will affect breathing, and the head of a newborn is relatively soft, so a better sleeping posture is beneficial to the development of the head. It is recommended to buy a comfortable small pillow for your baby, which is 1 to 2 cm thick, slightly sunken in the middle and slightly raised at both ends. The best sleeping position is lying on your back or side to avoid compressing the chest and lungs. It is recommended to sleep on your side after feeding to avoid suffocation caused by spilled milk or choking. When lying on your back, you should change your position frequently. Full-term babies are more active, so they can lie prone in the first few days after birth to facilitate the outflow of respiratory secretions and prevent vomitus from flowing back into the trachea. However, when lying prone, the pillow must be removed and the head must be turned to one side. Parents must be present to supervise. 2. Baby's clothes The skin of a newborn is very tender and fragile, so the baby's underwear (including diapers) should be made of soft and absorbent cotton fabrics. It is best not to use chemical fibers or printed and dyed fabrics. The color of the clothes should be light to facilitate the detection of dirt and prevent dyes from irritating the newborn's skin. The clothes should be as loose as possible, not hinder limb movements, and easy to put on and take off. Baby's clothes should be washed in a separate washing machine or basin. 3. Baby feeding Feeding a baby is a very complex subject. Experts believe that the earlier breastfeeding starts after birth, the better, generally about half an hour after birth. If the mother is not secreting milk for the time being, she should try to let the newborn suck the nipple to promote milk secretion and enhance the relationship between mother and baby. Mothers should wash their hands and clean their nipples before breastfeeding. When breastfeeding, it is best to empty one breast and then switch to the other breast next time to prevent residual milk from accumulating in the breast. If there is still excess milk in one breast after one feeding, it is best to squeeze it out to promote normal breast lactation and avoid milk accumulation or secondary infection. Burp your baby after feeding to avoid spitting up milk and causing danger. |
