The little baby's chubby little face, anyone who looks at it will not help but want to take a bite.
However, doing so is likely to infect the baby with the disease, because the baby's immune system is not perfect, kissing the baby or the adult chewing and feeding, many germs will be transmitted to the baby through saliva, causing the baby to get sick.
So how do you avoid others kissing your baby?
The first choice is, of course, euphemistic refusal, after all, relatives who kiss their babies account for the majority, and direct rejection will inevitably cause embarrassment. Or unnecessary contradictions.
Then you can start with your baby and make him think you're going to kiss him or play with him every time. Just tell him,
"Baby, do you think your mother is going to kiss you?" The doctor said, can't kiss Oh! ”
Then those present will understand that you can't kiss.
Of course, there will be some people who still can't stand the temptation of the baby and will still put their mouths down, so you can directly refuse at this time.
It is also important to let the people around you also stand by your side. Not only the father of the child, but also the in-laws, their own parents.
In front of them, you can express your concerns from time to time. For example, the last time I saw a child with acute pneumonia. I heard the doctor say that it was an adult kiss. There are also some children who can play with each other.
Give an example. The family will know the seriousness of the matter and will naturally stand on the united front with you.
To prevent strangers, you can make a "do not touch the baby" logo on the stroller, or put a sign on the carrier "Please wash your hands before touching me";
