For people today, it is a very important thing to conceive the next generation. Under normal circumstances, everyone does not want their children to lose at the starting line. Perhaps the starting line of education can rely on money, and the starting line of physical health is indeed powerless for many parents. For example, newborns, premature births and term, the starting line is not on the same line.
From a medical point of view, a baby born at 36 weeks can be regarded as premature. A 40-week newborn is considered a full-term birth. How big is the gap between these two kinds of babies? In fact, these differences are mainly from the perspective of physical health and intelligence and appearance, and the three aspects are not the same.
There is no doubt that the physical condition of premature babies is basically not comparable to that of term babies. Many people know that premature babies are born in incubators for a period of time, which is due to poor immunity and imperfect respiratory system in premature babies.
Premature babies are completely resistant to bacteria and viruses, and are easily infected, resulting in sepsis, which can also be life-threatening. Term babies have no trouble at all, and they have a certain resistance to bacteria. Premature babies have not fully developed lungs, so the respiratory system is also imperfect, and many premature babies cannot breathe spontaneously and can only rely on oxygen to intervene. Term babies are free to breathe fresh air, even more freely.
Some people think that when a child is a baby, there is no intellectual problem. However, the child's brain development can be determined by the child's behavior. Premature babies are basically asleep and have a shorter awakening time. For external stimuli, the response is relatively small, and the original reflection is incomplete. For example, if you tease a premature baby, the child may not react and have sluggish eyes. And the full-term baby will have a smile, or the eyes are attracted to you and stare at you all the time.
From the appearance, it is also obvious. Because the subcutaneous fat of premature babies is very thin, if you can see the subcutaneous tissue through light, there are more fetal hairs, and the entire skin is pink, but in the absence of oxygen, the face will show an unhealthy purple color. Healthy babies don't have these problems, they look very sunny and cute. The child has red cheeks, and the whole face is fleshy, so that people have the urge to hug it when they see it.
To avoid giving birth to a premature baby, this reminds the mother to pay attention when she is pregnant. The main problem with premature babies is lack of nutrition, so diet is important during pregnancy. The so-called mother eats, the baby eats. Many pregnant mothers are very picky when they are pregnant, and they like to eat junk food, and the consequence of these foods is that the weight of pregnant mothers has risen sharply, while the weight of the baby has not increased.
During pregnancy, pregnant mothers should pay attention to the diet structure and obtain more nutrients from a variety of foods. For the weight should also be controlled in the normal range, too fat and too thin are not suitable, to grow at a uniform rate.
It is also very important to maintain a pleasant mood, many TV episodes, that is, pregnant women are greatly stimulated, causing the child to be born prematurely. Film and television works come from life, so it can be seen that emotional stability is very important for pregnant mothers. Mood swings are too large, it is easy to affect the healthy growth of children, and if it is serious, there will even be premature births.
However, in addition, many pregnant mothers give birth to premature babies, which is also caused by accidents. Towards the due date, accidents occur, or falls, or excessive exercise. In order to avoid similar things, pregnant mothers try to stay at home in the early stage of the expected period of delivery, and the work is also handed over. Please take a good holiday and prepare the maternity bag so that you don't have to be busy when the time comes. In the third trimester, less public transportation, such as buses and subways, there are many people during peak hours, and people are in a hurry, which can easily cause being pushed down by the crowd and causing premature birth.
Life is sometimes not smooth sailing, if the mother really encounters misfortune and encounters a premature baby, there is no need to be too pessimistic. It just takes more time and more energy to take care of the baby, and after years of precipitation, the baby can also become a healthier person.
In low-weight premature babies, the body development is generally slower than that of normal babies. China generally advocates food supplements. When your baby is small, you should pay attention to the daily milk amount. Breast milk is often advertised as having more nutrients, and breastfeeding is even more necessary for premature babies. The confinement period is the key month for the baby to chase weight, in addition to the problem of food intake, there are sleep problems. Let the baby sleep better in the confinement, it is important to let the baby turn off the lights at night, do not leave night lights.
Exercise can produce a lot of miracles, and premature babies need exercise even more. More exercise can not only exercise the body, but also promote appetite and enhance the body's immunity. Outdoor sports is also necessary, do not give the child too good protection, the natural sun can make the baby better absorb calcium, so as to grow into a strong body. No matter what way, as long as there is love, the child can still grow up well after all.
