Both hand and foot prints are unique.
As the saying goes, there are no two identical leaves in the world, no two people's fingerprints and foot lines are the same, even identical twins can not do it, this is the unique proof that we live in this world.
But it is precisely because of this uniqueness that our fingerprints and footprints will always "betray" us, such as the police rely on fingerprints to solve cases, doctors rely on fingerprints to compare paternity tests and so on. These are used immediately when we are born.
Newborns are taken away to "press footprints," frightening new mothers
Kobayashi had just finished giving birth and was pushed to the ward to rest, because she was in a vaginal birth without any external force, resulting in her now being exhausted, with no strength in her body, the upper eyelids had been fighting with the lower eyelids, and she didn't even have the strength to look at the newborn child, just thinking about the head and sleeping.
When she woke up and reacted, she wanted to see her child, after all, the other mothers had given her preventive injections, saying that the newborn was very ugly when she was just born, and she was like seeing whether her "blind box" was a surprise or a shock.
But at this time, his husband told her that the child was taken away by the nurse and "pressed the footprints", and it would take a while to hold it back, and you can see it after the child returns. I can't see it now.
As soon as I heard that the child had gone to "press the footprints", Kobayashi was very confused, I had only heard of "pressing the fingerprints", and after pressing the fingerprints, they were doing some bad things, so these nurses did not go through my permission to take my children away
Just when she wanted to find the nurse to argue, the nurse took the child back, and Kobayashi immediately asked the nurse about her intentions, perhaps because her tone was too strong, and the nurse ignored her and left.
When Kobayashi saw the nurse's reaction, he was even more angry, but it was good that his mother in the same ward as him told her, otherwise he might have made a bigger joke.
Why do newborns have to "press their footprints" in the hospital?
The "footprints" are the business card of each newborn
Normally, the hospital will "forcibly" keep the newborn and the mother who gave birth for at least 3 days, during which the hospital will test the physical indicators of the little one, and each child is separated from the mother. But these little guys make no difference to doctors and nurses who aren't familiar with them.
And they don't have a name yet, and even if they have a name, they won't react, so just in case, in order to avoid some unnecessary trouble, the doctor will print small footprints on the babies as their business cards.
In this way, the number of cases of holding the wrong child is greatly reduced. Compared with their small footprints, the footprints on the footprints can be "seated in the right place".
It is similar to the meaning of the footprints of the "100 Days"
Although the length of the little foot will change as the baby grows up, the foot lines will not change at all. As long as the baby's feet are not injured and stimulated by the outside world, no matter how old they are, they will not change.
So why do moms have to leave extra fingerprints and footprints on their babies? Isn't it possible to use the footprints of the newborn? We others think it doesn't matter, but the mothers don't do it, because they feel that the meaning is different.
Children grow up only once, and if they want to keep this beautiful memory forever, they can only rely on external forces, photos, or videos. When the baby was just born, the hospital provided this service intimately to help the mothers take a souvenir.
In addition, it is also possible to file and establish a birth certificate for newborns. This document can be of great use! It's like an adult ID card.
Alpaca mom has something to say:
New mother, new father, many things have to be done with all their hearts, just like the newborn "press the footprints" of this thing, if every mother, father can know in advance, how can there be a joke like Kobayashi!
The nurse chose silence, and if the nurse said anything reproachful, it would inevitably be a quarrel. What's more, it will rise to the level of the doctor-patient relationship. Let others see the joke.
Perhaps this is also inseparable from the tension between doctors and patients today, doctors always have "reservations" for patients, lack of patience, and do not blame patients for being suspicious! But after the problem, we should not just dwell on where the problem is, but should actively cooperate to solve it.
But all in all, the ignorant are not guilty, because the series of misunderstandings caused by ignorance are understandable. But novice parents must master this scale, be careful to cause more misunderstandings and embarrassment, and finally it is difficult to end themselves.
