The weather is cold, and The mother and father have to wake up countless times every night to cover the child with a small quilt to prevent the baby's small belly from getting cold.
When parents have a touching attachment to covering the stomach, because in the consciousness of many parents, the baby's navel must be covered, otherwise it will enter the wind, and the child will have a cold diarrhea!
But does the navel really get into the wind? Is it really "cold" diarrhea?
Today Xiaobian will talk to you!
Does the navel eye really get into the wind?
To know if the navel eye will enter the wind, you must first know how the navel eye came to be.
During the fetal period, the umbilical cord connects the mother and the fetus, and the fetus relies on the umbilical cord to obtain the nutrients needed for life, until the baby is born The umbilical cord will be cut off, and then the rest will automatically fall off, leaving a "symbol", which is the navel eye.
So in a sense, the navel eye resembles a scar left after cutting the umbilical cord. It's not a hole, it's not even internal organs, it's not connected to the intestines, it's just a "scar."
The navel eye of a dead end, naturally there is no "door", no door naturally can not enter the wind!
However, the child's stomach will indeed have diarrhea after "cold", what is going on?
Because the abdomen is cold, it may stimulate intestinal peristalsis, which can lead to diarrhea. This is not the result of a cold in the navel, but a cold in the whole stomach.
In addition, in addition to abdominal colds, common rotavirus, norovirus infections, improper diet, etc. can also cause diarrhea in children. Therefore, if the child has diarrhea symptoms, it is necessary to find the cause, but you can not blindly keep the abdomen warm and delay the disease.
Navel care highlights:
The navel will not enter the wind, but the child with a cold abdomen will indeed have diarrhea, so parents should do a good job of keeping the child warm when sleeping at night.
In addition to whether the navel eye will enter the wind, the parents and fathers must have many questions, such as why the shape of the navel eye is different? What exactly is the "mud" in the navel eye? Can the navel eye be cut... Mom and Dad, look down!
Why are the navel shapes different?
If you look closely, you will find that everyone's navel eye is not the same, although it is only a pit, but it is a variety of strange "pits", some are just a faint trace, some are like a black hole whirlpool, some are like a small sarcoma...
For the shape of the navel eye, Mama Yu once heard a bao mom say that the navel eye is not good-looking, which is related to the doctor's umbilical cord knotting technique.
Isn't it better to tie a bow navel? Of course not!
What the navel looks like depends on the healing effect of the umbilical cord wound. If the umbilical cord heals quickly and the flesh grows in a hurry, a convex navel eye will be formed.

In addition to the above navel shape, if the child's navel is this, parents should pay attention!
Note this navel shape:
This is called an umbilical hernia because the abdominal wall muscles of the child's umbilical cord have not been closed, and when the child's abdomen is forced, abdominal bloating, and frequent crying, the small intestine protrudes from the unsealed umbilicus to the skin, forming a bulge above the abdominal wall. Usually, after the child is calm, the lump will disappear.
As the baby grows and develops, the abdominal wall muscles gradually close, and the umbilical hernia will naturally disappear. Most infants and young children have umbilical hernias that heal spontaneously with the strengthening of the abdominal wall within 2 years of age.
Pediatric navel hernia itself is not a big problem, parents should not be too nervous, and do not rush to make up their own minds to give children "deflation"!
Once there was a couple who saw a one-month-old baby's belly button bulging a bag, and they thought there was gas in it. The dad directly found a blade and cut a small opening in the baby's navel, trying to "deflate" the baby. Who knew that the child's small intestines gushed out along the crack and almost died!

How dare you take a knife and cut it on a child? Such ignorant parents are really rare!
In this way with the mother and father of the baby to wake up, umbilical hernia will generally disappear after the child is calm, if the child's hernia suddenly becomes larger, abdominal pain, small intestine can not be self-contained, and beyond the age of self-healing, it is recommended to seek medical surgery, do not fool yourself!
What is the "mud" in the navel eye?
In addition to the shape of the navel eye, there is also the "mud" in the navel eye, which also affects the curiosity of many people.
In fact, the "mud" in the navel eye is a mixture of skin debris, sweat and dust. Many people will take advantage of the bath, stretch the claw to the navel, here a cut, there a cut, and then put on the nose to smell, the degree of acid is comparable to the nose shit!
Although it is addictive to pick, it is not recommended that you over-clean this area. Because this area is relatively weak, it is easy to cause bleeding from the skin and infection of the opening.
If that's the case, don't you have to worry about the dirty things in your navel? Of course not, the navel eye is too dirty and easy to produce odors, too much dirt will also irritate the skin uncomfortable, so although we do not recommend cutting, but we can clean it once every two or three months!
How to clean up?
The cleaning of the baby's navel can be carried out while bathing, and the dirt can be washed after the dirt is softened;
If the navel is shallow, use water;
If the navel is deeper, you can apply a bath or soap and then treat the dirt with a cotton swab;
If there is too much dirt, you can apply navel eyes with body lotion, hand cream, etc., wait a few minutes before wiping it with a tissue, and finally gently clean it with a cotton swab.
Small navel, small knowledge points are really a lot. Of course, in addition to keeping the abdomen warm, the other does not need too much attention from parents, do not have anything to do with the navel Oh ~ ~
