The birth of the baby brings excitement and joy to parents and mothers, but it also brings a lot of "happiness troubles".
The first time to be a mom and dad, a novice, in many ways will not.
Will not judge whether it is normal, will not judge whether it is right or wrong, and will not even be the most basic feeding and care.
However, fortunately, the growth and development of babies from 0-12 months are regular, and there are methods to follow in maintenance. For example, within 24 hours of the baby's birth, it is necessary to do 4 kinds of nursing care, all in place, and the baby is healthier!
Come and see if you're doing it right?
The first: "Crying to be born" is healthier
Even inexperienced people often see the scene of the birth of a newborn from film and television dramas, generally at the moment of the birth of the baby, they will cry, and the louder the cry, the happier everyone is, why is this?
This is because the fetus does not need to breathe on its own in the mother's belly, but to become an independent living individual after birth, it must first learn to "breathe on its own".
Therefore, after birth, "double lung function" is activated and spontaneous breathing is completed.
When the baby "inhale-exhale" completes the breathing process, the air hits the vocal cords, which will make the baby "cry".
The louder the cry, the better the baby's lung function, which means that it is healthier.
However, if the baby is crying weakly, or has not been crying, the doctor will deal with the situation according to the situation, such as playing the soles of the baby's feet, tapping the baby's back or buttocks, or even turning the baby upside down to stimulate the baby to cry
But if it doesn't work, you'll also give your baby oxygen or other emergency treatment to keep him safe.
Second item: "Defecation" within 24 hours of birth is healthier
I remember that my son had a bowel shortly after he was born, but at that time, the first sight of his poop was particularly nervous, it was dark green, and it was very much like the asphalt of paving, and the baby father called the nurse nervously.
The nurse looked at it and said, "Normal, very healthy." ”
Both of us were dumbfounded, obviously the color and traits were not normal!
Later, the nurse explained that this is called fetal stool, and the stool pulled in the first few days of the newborn's birth is like this, which is saved in the mother's stomach, usually pulled for 2-3 days.
After the tire is pulled, it begins to pull the normal stool, and the normal stool is golden yellow, which is relatively thin, but the yellow-green transition stool will be pulled first in the middle.
Hearing the nurse say this, the hanging heart relaxed.
Third: It is healthier to maintain a "neutral temperature" baby after birth
From a young age, the newborn baby is always wrapped in three layers of outer three layers, afraid that the baby is cold and sick.
Later, when I interned in the hospital, I learned that the newborn had not yet developed the thermoregulation center, coupled with the fact that the baby's subcutaneous fat was thin at this time, and it was easy to be affected by the outside temperature.
The external temperature is lower than the temperature in the mother's womb, the baby's body temperature will drop significantly after birth, if it can provide a moderate temperature environment, the baby's body temperature can gradually rise to 36 ° C -37 ° C.
This most suitable "ambient temperature" is the "neutral temperature", maintaining this temperature can maintain the baby's normal body temperature, the lowest metabolic rate, and the least oxygen consumption.
And less calorie consumption, you can maximize the use of heat energy and nutrients for growth and development, especially the baby's nervous system development.
Fourth: It is healthier to get a "two-shot vaccine" within 24 hours of birth
Within 24 hours of your baby's birth, the nurse will give your baby two shots of the vaccine.
Inexperienced novice parents will be distressed by the baby, and they will be pricked with needles as soon as they are born, in fact, this is all for the good of the baby, related to the baby's health and future schooling.
Each vaccination record of the baby is in the vaccine book, when going to kindergarten, you need to hand over the vaccine book to the kindergarten, if the baby is not vaccinated, it will affect the child's kindergarten.
But why vaccinate your baby as soon as you are born?
This is because newborns are delicate and vulnerable to the virus, and the two vaccinations are also arranged under the national vaccination plan and are given free of charge to the baby.
One shot is hepatitis B vaccine, one shot is BCG vaccine, after understanding this knowledge, new parents should cooperate with nurses to help the baby vaccinate on time.
In these 4 aspects, have your babies been in place?
24 hours after birth, for raising a baby, it is just the beginning, and the daily life with the baby behind is even more "troublesome".
This requires new parents to learn some scientific parenting knowledge in advance, understand the baby's development rules and parenting priorities every month, help the baby grow better, reduce anxiety and less pitfall.
