Many mothers are not at ease with handing over their babies to the elderly to bring them for no reason, because many times the concepts of the elderly are different from those of young people, and some of the more traditional concepts are likely to bring harm to the baby. In terms of excessive frugality, it is not suitable for the parenting of the baby.
01 The baby's "belly saving period", grandma does not change diapers, almost hurting fertility
After giving birth to the baby, Xiao Zheng returned to work not long after the confinement, because the conditions at home were not good, and he was worried that his previous position would be replaced by others, so he handed the child to his mother-in-law to see, and every morning before going out, he would squeeze the breast milk well, and rushed back to breastfeed after work at noon. The mother-in-law was also very distressed to see Xiao Zheng like this, worried that the baby would quarrel with Xiao Zheng at night, so she let the baby sleep with him.
Even if this kind of life is very fulfilling, Xiao Zheng does feel very tired, but as long as the baby is healthy, she feels that it doesn't matter. Xiao Zheng's mother-in-law is a very frugal person, plus he sees that his son's living conditions are poor, so he is even more frugal.
The same is true for the problem of baby diapers, the baby began to save belly about half a month after the confinement, and the elderly also had experience with babies, so they knew this situation, so they planned to wait until the baby defecated before changing diapers, so that they could also save diapers.
Even if the baby does not smell, but still urinate, so for three days in a row did not change the baby's diapers, until the baby smelled, she went to change. After practicing two or three times, the baby began to cry every time whether it was urination or defecation, and the genital area and buttocks appeared a large redness, and some of the skin was about to fester, and the mother-in-law realized the seriousness of the problem and quickly took the baby to the hospital.
After arriving at the hospital for examination, the doctor concluded that there was a problem with the baby's reproductive system, which was accompanied by more serious inflammation and diaper dermatitis. When the doctor told Xiao Zheng's mother-in-law that the child's fertility was almost affected, the mother-in-law began to tremble with fear.
The doctor went on to explain that if the diaper is not changed for a long time, the urine will produce a large number of bacteria in the diaper, which will enter the reproductive system and eventually cause inflammation, if these inflammations are more serious, it may also hurt the baby's fertility. After listening to it, the mother-in-law was once again annoyed by her ignorance, and said that she would never be frugal in these aspects again, and the price was really unbearable.
02 The baby's "belly saving period", pay attention to these details
There may also be some people like the mother-in-law in the above case, think that the baby does not defecate during the belly saving period, then there is no need to change the diapers frequently, and even some elderly people feel that the baby's urine is clean, so even if it is locked in the diaper, it does not matter, but in fact, there is still a big difference.
Because even if the baby drinks breast milk, there will still be a lot of substances in the urine, after discharge, if the mothers do not change the diapers in time, then a large number of bacteria will breed, and the more to the back, the faster the bacterial reproduction speed, the greater the number, in this case, the greater the damage to the baby.
Therefore, during the baby's belly saving period, we must pay attention to the replacement of the baby's diapers, it is best to change it once every two or three hours, if there is no urination, then you can also postpone it a little time appropriately.
In addition, during the baby's belly saving, you should also pay attention to whether there is constipation. If you don't pay attention to the difference between your baby's belly and constipation, it is likely to cause harm to your baby.
Just like my friend's son before, her son began to save his stomach at 2 months, but in the later stage, he slowly evolved from the problem of saving his stomach to constipation, but the family thought it was a belly saver, so they didn't care too much. Until a week later, I found that the baby has not had a bowel movement for a whole week, no wonder the baby has always been in a bad mood recently, his face is often red, and his crying is endless.
Later, the child was taken to the hospital, the doctor blamed the parents for not being careful, the child's constipation was so serious, and even a little fissure, if it was found later, maybe the situation would be more serious, which made the friend feel very afraid.
Since then, even if the baby is in the belly saving period, he pays great attention to the problem of constipation, and he is afraid of repeating the same mistakes. Therefore, mothers need to pay attention to the difference between the two, otherwise if they are neglected, they are likely to cause harm.
Finally, it also needs to be reminded that in the baby's belly saving period, try to increase the baby's exercise, such as helping the baby turn over or do some leg flexion and extension exercises, if necessary, you can also give the baby an abdominal massage, which can also enhance the baby's gastrointestinal function, thereby promoting his bowel movements.
Of course, parents don't have to worry too much about the baby's belly saving problem, because this is a necessary process for every baby, usually without drug intervention.
