Lele herself is an only child, pampered by her parents since childhood, can be said to be a delicate princess, in the period of time after giving birth, it has simply become the darkest moment in her life!
After giving birth, she hopes to be able to breastfeed, endure all kinds of discomfort after giving birth to the child to breastfeed the child, experience milk swelling during the breastfeeding process, nipple cracking, dozing off in the middle of the night while feeding the baby! #谣零零计划 #
In the first month of her child's life, she was in a groggy state every day because the child needed to drink breast milk day and night, which made her very sleepy and wanted to sleep.
In the second month after the birth of the child, although the night sleep time is a little longer, the child often cries because the child is a little flatulent.
Every time Lele complained, her mother told her that when the child passed three months to the fourth month, you would be much more comfortable.
At first, Lele thought that it was his own mother who comforted him, but later found that the child was really good after 4 months.
Children can occasionally sleep at night, and drinking milk during the day is also more complete meals, plus children begin to slowly learn to turn over and other various actions, you will find that children eat well, sleep well, play well, and begin to become fun.
The child reaches 4 months is an important watershed in growth and development!
Children at 4 months, growth and development show "two more three less four disappear", how to care should be clear
Two more: I drank more at every meal, I was more awake during the day, and I slept more at night
(1) Drink more at every meal
Although the child is still exclusively breastfed, breast milk can still meet the needs of the child's growth and development, but the child's breastfeeding is faster, and the amount of breast milk will become more.
If the mother usually has the habit of milking out and feeding the milk with a bottle, she will find that the child's appetite will be much larger at 4 months.
It is precisely because the child has a large appetite that he sleeps longer at night.
The total amount of milk that children drink is about 800 to 1000 ml, but the amount of milk drunk into a meal will be more each time.
(2) I wake up more during the day and sleep more at night
As the child grows up, he will observe the things around him, and his vision and hearing development are relatively sharp.
He would like to play with his mother during the day, and at night, because the nervous system was well developed, he would slowly learn to fall asleep on his own at night and sleep well.
Some children can sleep up to 8 hours at a time, so mothers try to start consciously letting their children sleep at night.
Three less: less night milk, less growth and development, less sleep
★ There is less night milk
Some children slowly do not drink night milk at 4 months, if the child's night milk is still very frequent, then the mother must be vigilant, may be caused by their own care of the child is not in place.
Therefore, it is recommended that mothers try to reduce the amount of night milk after the child is 4 months old, which is more conducive to the child's sleep and more conducive to the growth of the child's height.
★ Growth and development are reduced
Before three months, the average child gained two pounds of weight per month and a height of about 5 centimeters.
But after three months, the child's weight increase is greatly reduced, and the weight increase is about 1 pound and 2 two per month, and the height increases by about three centimeters.
★ Sleep is reduced
Your child's total sleep has also decreased.
Children 0 to 3 months, sleep time is 14 to 17 hours a day, 4 months to start sleeping or reduce for about two hours, when not sleeping, the child begins to observe the surrounding environment to learn.
Four disappeared: the hugging reflex disappeared, the sucking reflex disappeared, the stepping reflex disappeared, and the grip reflex disappeared
The child disappears mainly by some of his innate reflexes.
● Hug reflex disappears
When a child hears some loud noises three months ago, he will involuntarily hold himself, which is called a hug reflex, but after 4 months, this reflex will slowly disappear in the child.
●The sucking reflex disappears
When the child was born, drinking milk was all dependent on his innate sucking reflex, but after four months, his drinking milk became an active behavior, drinking it when he wanted, rather than a natural reflex.
●The stepping reflex disappears
When a newborn is born, you pick him up and his feet will keep moving, like walking.
However, this stepping reflex generally disappears slowly until the child is 4 months old, and when the child learns to walk at the age of one, conscious treading behavior will reappear.
●The grip reflex disappears
When the child is born, you put your hand in his hand, and he will hold it tightly, and even this strength can hold up the weight of the child's body.
The grasping reflex will also slowly disappear after more than three months of the child, becoming the child's hand to take the initiative to grasp things.
These changes in the child's body need to be carefully observed and cared for by parents, and after 4 months, they should take the child out more and let the child contact different things, which is more conducive to the development of the child's brain.
