The birth of the newborn represents a new member of the family, it is really a happy thing, today also brushed a short video, is a boy after dinner to see the newborn nephew, because the boy himself likes the child, and is also the first time to be an uncle, so it is also more happy, are directly hands on touching the baby's small face, did not expect the whole family to see his appearance in the monitoring.
In fact, it is completely understandable, after all, human cubs are very cute, although they are ugly when they are born, but they cannot stop the pace of family love.
However, many people may not know that there are several things that newborns must do on the first day of life.
The first thing, the first time you are born, you should cry.
Why do you say that when your baby is born, you have to cry, and you can't cry without crying?
Not really!
Because the baby is soaked in amniotic fluid before birth, when the baby is in the womb, there is no need to directly contact the air, and it does not need to breathe by itself, so the work of the alveoli is only development, and it has always been in a closed state.
But after the baby is born, it is different, the baby needs to adapt to the external environment to learn to breathe, when the baby is born will be exposed to air, and then the baby's chest cavity will expand, the air will then enter the baby's lungs, these air flows will impact the baby's vocal cords, the baby will cry, in fact, this is not the baby is really crying, but because the vocal cords vibrate.
In any case, just a little time after the baby is born, the baby's respiratory system and circulatory system have been completed, and when we hear the baby's cry, the baby's respiratory system has entered a normal working state, that is to say, even if it leaves the womb, the baby can survive in the external environment.
If the baby does not cry out, it may be because the baby's mouth and nose are blocked, the air cannot enter the baby's lungs, the baby cannot breathe normally, and everyone understands what it means not to breathe.
So the baby has to cry.
If the baby does not cry, the doctor will put the baby upside down, pat the baby's little ass or the soles of the feet, and let the baby cry out quickly to be able to breathe normally.
The second thing is that the baby will be vaccinated twice on the first day of life.
Vaccination is to establish a protective barrier for the baby's body, and newborns are generally given two vaccines immediately after birth, namely hepatitis B vaccine and BCG vaccine.
Mandatory vaccination of newborns with hepatitis B vaccine and BCG vaccine began around the 1980s and 1990s. Until now, every newborn was born with both vaccines. The hepatitis B vaccine prevents the hepatitis B virus, and the BCG vaccine prevents tuberculosis.
Maybe some small places were not very mandatory at that time, and the lazy mother remembered that when she was a child, there were many children around who would get tuberculosis, and the local disease prevention and control center would send free medicine to treat it. At that time, I heard that a child in a relative's family had tuberculosis, and it took medicine for three years. But now it is rare to hear of pediatric tuberculosis, so this vaccine is very effective.
The third thing is that breast-milk babies should be milked in time after birth.
If you plan to breastfeed, then breastfeeding is already more than half successful.
Why?
Because babies are born with a foraging reflex, within 0.5-2 hours after the baby is born, the baby's desire to suck is the strongest, and if you can open the milk at this time, it will play a very critical role.
It has been said many times before that in order to breastfeed the baby, the mother-to-be's body is ready during pregnancy, just waiting for the baby's order to start working.
After childbirth, the mother will produce milk because after the placenta leaves the mother, the progesterone in the mother's body decreases, prolactin and oxytocin rise, and the baby's first sucking is equivalent to a signal to secrete and release milk.
So the earlier the milk is opened, the sooner the baby can eat the colostrum, the faster the milk can be normally secreted, the baby can also get precious antibodies and sufficient nutrition from the colostrum, you know, the colostrum is called soft gold baby food.
After that, as long as the normal feeding is OK, isn't this a big success!
Therefore, after childbirth, the mother should open the milk as early as possible, and can also promote uterine contractions to avoid postpartum big outbursts. Blood. Of course, everyone is in a different situation, there is no mandatory requirement to open milk within two hours, can only say that according to their actual situation, as soon as possible to open milk.
The fourth thing is to observe the baby's size and bowel movements.
Let's start with your baby's stools
If there is no accident, this will be the baby's first bowel movement, even if the baby has already defecated in about five months of pregnancy, but the baby will not have a bowel movement in the womb, unless there are special circumstances ~ fetal hypoxia.
These poop of the baby become fetal stool, dark green, and very sticky, and it cannot be wiped off with ordinary paper towels. But no matter what these fetuses are, they should be discharged normally after the baby is born.
Your baby's first bowel movements are generally excreted about 10 to 18 hours after birth, and will be cleaned up about 2 to 3 days after that. If the baby does not excrete the first bowel movement within 24 hours, parents should consider other intestinal problems and communicate with the doctor in time.
And then there's your baby's urination
For the baby's urination, the baby is also familiar with it, after all, it has been carried out countless times in the stomach, and the baby has basically improved its urinary system at about 13 weeks, and can secrete urine to be the main source of amniotic fluid.
But in any case, the first time after birth is also more important. The baby will generally urinate for the first time within 24 hours of birth, if the baby is a little skiny and not very cooperative, then we may as well give him a little more time and give him 48 hours.
If the baby does not urinate after 48 hours, parents must tell the doctor in time.
There are a few other things to be aware of.
Pay attention to protect your baby's navel.
On the first day of birth, the nurse sister will help the baby paste the navel sticker, we do not need to care for the navel at all when taking care of the newborn, but can not add chaos, to the baby when the diaper is not wet try to avoid too much friction, protect the navel on the line.
Indoor lighting should not be too bright.
Newborn from a dark environment to a bright environment, vision is also very blurry, indoor lights are too bright on the baby's eyes stimulation is too large, affecting the development of the baby's vision, so in order to protect the baby's vision, indoor lights can be dimmed.
Pay attention to your baby's warmth.
When the baby is not born, the temperature in the womb is maintained for a long time at about 37 to 38 degrees, and suddenly comes to another environment with different temperatures, the newborn itself is difficult to adapt, and the nerve center of the newborn to regulate body temperature is not perfect, and it is easy to be affected by the external environment, so it is necessary to do a good job of keeping the baby warm, avoid catching a cold, but also not too hot.
Then again, the day the baby was born, who noticed these details again?
