In the TV series "Rule 22 of Marriage Rules 2", Zhang Duo's wife has been pregnant for several months, and suddenly one day, she feels unbearable pain. The husband supported her and called out to her mother anxiously, and together they sent their wife to the doctor.
Outside the delivery room, although he was accompanied by his parents, Zhang Duo was still worried about his wife. He walked around anxiously until the nurse came over to give them the good news, "It's a girl, seven pounds and six pounds." ”
Zhang Duo knew that his mother and daughter were safe, and his wife bore him a daughter. The first time he became a father, he was ecstatic and could not hide his excitement, and he said to the old man, "Great! Mom, you say that Yue Hitomi is versatile! ”
The birth of the baby is a great joy for both families, and both parents are happy to close their mouths. Especially the father-to-be, he chanted, "Seven pounds and six good, four or two eight pounds!" ”。
The old man often says that the big fat boy, the baby weighs 8 pounds, white and fat. The father-to-be's daughter was born seven pounds and six weights, indicating that the baby is developing well.
After the birth of a newborn, the father-to-be also cares about the baby's health. In fact, in addition to weight, there are also these characteristics that can also show that the fetus is living well in the womb of pregnant women, and new parents have known and rest assured.
Newborns have 4 characteristics after birth, which means that they are moist in the womb, and parents don't worry
1. Cry loudly
The first thing a newborn does when he comes into the world is to cry.
Some babies are more worry-free, just out of the womb, ushered in a loud cry, he can't wait to use the cry to remind people of his arrival.
Some babies are different, and after birth, there is no crying for a long time. Sometimes the doctor will lift the baby up and pat the baby's buttocks a few times, and the baby will cry loudly.
Why do newborns have to cry?
This is because the fetus is in the womb, through the umbilical cord to absorb nutrients and maintain growth. After the newborn is born, the connection to the umbilical cord is severed, and the baby starts to breathe spontaneously.
The first step in the baby's spontaneous breathing is to learn to cry first and hear the baby's crying.
However, not all babies cry right away at birth. For some "lazy" babies, crying comes late and may require some help.
The louder your baby's crying, the healthier your baby is. Premature babies cry differently than term babies.
Premature babies are born before they reach the age of 37 weeks, and the earlier the gestational week, the more imperfect the baby's physical development is, and the crying is weaker, or even no crying.
Not only that, but premature babies may also have breathing problems because the respiratory system is not yet mature.
Full-term children are different, more than 37 weeks, the development of all aspects of the fetus is more perfect, especially the development of the lungs is becoming more and more mature, and the baby's crying is loud.
2. Meet the weight standard
TV series "22nd Marriage Rule 2", Zhang Duo's wife gave birth to a baby smoothly, he felt that there was no difference between boys and girls, he loved the same, but he heard the baby seven pounds and six two, or heartbroken, this baby looks good! The wife is really powerful!
Some elderly people think that the heavier the baby, the better, rounded, chubby, and blessed to look. In fact, the weight of the newborn is still exquisite, and the baby is too light or too heavy.
What is the most appropriate birth weight for newborns? The difference between different weights is large, and this weight indicates that the baby is developing well
(1) Premature babies are the least weighty
The fetus is born before 37 weeks of pregnancy, that is, the preterm baby, and preterm birth is also divided into 3 periods: early preterm birth with a gestational week of less than 28 weeks, mid-term preterm birth at 32-35 weeks of pregnancy, and late preterm birth at 34-37 weeks of pregnancy.
Premature babies weigh low, weighing even only 4.52 pounds. The larger the fetus's gestational age, the heavier its weight. The smaller the fetus's gestational age, the lighter its weight.
The smaller the gestational age of a newborn child at the time of premature birth, the weaker the baby, the less mature the body is, and the more seriously substandard the weight.
28-year-old Dolma, less than 31 weeks gestational age, twins were born, one of the babies was born only 490 grams, small him, especially painful.
After he was born, he lived in an incubator, and they all called him "Little Four-Nine".
From 490 grams to 2120 grams at birth, he spent 90 days, and with the help of medical staff, he went from less than one pound at birth to 4.24 pounds when he was discharged, which was a miracle of life, he was not easy.
(2) The weight of term children is 5.2-7.6 kg
The American Academy of Pediatrics Parenting Encyclopedia mentions that 80% of newborns born at term weigh 2.6-3.8 kg, which is the weight range of healthy babies.
Newborns born at full term weigh an average of 6.34 pounds. Most term infants weigh in the range of 5.2 to 7.6 kg.
Newborns weigh in the range of 5.5-6.5 pounds, which will be ideal.
(3) Giant children are the heaviest
Both term and macrosomics have a standard weight, except for premature babies.
If a newborn is born, a baby weighing more than 8 pounds is a giant.
However, babies are not as heavy as possible. If the fetus is too large, it will be more difficult for pregnant women to give birth.
If the baby is a giant baby, it means that the pregnant woman is over-supplemented and over-nourished during pregnancy, which can easily lead to a giant baby.
3. Strong hands and feet
Before I brushed a video, a newborn baby, after birth, while crying loudly, while using his hand to pull his hair fiercely, so that the mother-to-be also feel confused, what is wrong with the baby?
Some newborns will grasp the nurse's clothes with their small hands after birth, or when adults hold the baby, the baby's feet will involuntarily step forward.
After the birth of a newborn, some behaviors are confusing, in fact, this is just the baby's subconscious behavior, these are normal physiological emission behaviors, such as: stepping launch, grasping reflex.
A healthy baby born at term is full of energy, the baby's hands and feet are strong, and the earlier the gestational week of the premature baby is born, the weaker it is.
When the premature baby "Little Four-Nine" was born, it was only 490 grams, and his legs were not as thick as the adult's index finger. The baby's entire body is not as big as the adult's palm, and the whole person is very weak.
However, after 90 days, he weighed more than 4 pounds, and watching him dance with his hands and feet, full of energy, amused everyone, and his changes were gratifying.
The first time Grandma saw her little grandson, she was in tears, and she carefully held her little grandson, afraid of hurting him.
4. Thick hair
In addition to the weight of newborns, the most interesting thing is the baby's hair.
Some babies are born with thick hair, shiny eyes, cute and elf. Some babies are born with thinning hair that is unbearable.
Whether the hair of a newborn is thick or not is related to the nutrients absorbed by the fetus in the womb.
If the pregnant woman consumes sufficient nutrition during pregnancy, the development of the fetus will be better, the newborn will weigh up to the standard, and the baby's hair will grow well.
If the pregnant woman is pregnant and the intake of nutrients is not enough, the baby will not only not meet the weight standard, but the baby's hair will also be affected.
Therefore, during pregnancy, the diet of pregnant women is closely related to the development of the fetus, pregnant women can not fish and meat, eat without scruples, nor can they over-diet in order to look good, these two ways, are not conducive to the development of the fetus.
epilogue
If the newborn has these 4 characteristics at birth, it means that the fetus is developing better in the womb and is a healthy baby.
However, because the baby's birth time is sooner or later, there are indeed differences in weight and other aspects. Expectant mothers do not have to worry too much, after the birth of the baby, expectant mothers can also provide enough nutrition for the baby through breastfeeding, mixed feeding, etc., so that the baby's development catches up.
