Nowadays, many post-80s have a hard life, the upper needs to be pensioned, the lower needs to bring a baby, and the daily life and work are busy. Taking care of children is more than enough and not enough. Therefore, many parents after the 80s have become the main force with babies.
The elderly have more time to take the baby and are also very experienced. Although the elderly have many benefits with babies, there are also some problems that inevitably exist.
For example, when it comes to children's dressing, the elderly are always worried about the cold children. Therefore, many times when the weather is cold, the elderly dress their children, it may be three layers outside the three layers, may not be enough, such things we have long been common. Although the old man's starting point is good, such an approach has pit many children.
The grandson had a high fever and repeated itself
The grandson has a high fever, because it is a rural area, and it is most of the night to find a doctor, the mother-in-law who takes care of the grandson uses the past experience to use the method of covering the heat to reduce the fever for the baby. I have to say that the child's luck is still good, under the operation of the mother-in-law to cover the heat and reduce fever, the grandson sweated, and slowly the fever also subsided.
However, it should be known that the method of covering the heat and reducing fever is not always able to produce good results. Sometimes it can also cause your baby to become dehydrated due to excessive sweating. Not only can not reduce the fever, but will exacerbate the baby's cold and fever problem, more likely to lead to the baby's appearance of some other diseases, resulting in the baby vomiting up and down diarrhea and other problems.
After the grandson's fever subsided, the mother-in-law was worried about the child and had a cold and fever again, so she wore a full 6 pieces of clothing for the baby in three layers and three outer layers. Although the mother-in-law was kind, what she did not expect was that the grandson just did not have long, and he had another cold and fever.
The reason is because the mother-in-law dresses the grandson too much, the child is active and lively, a little better to play everywhere, resulting in the grandson frequent sweating, so that no matter how much you wear, you will not feel warm, so that after the cold wind blows again and again.
This time the high fever was repeated, and it was quite serious, more than 39 degrees. Once again, the mother-in-law wanted to warm the child to reduce the fever. But it was stopped in time by BaoMa's mother, Ms. Zhang, and hurriedly took the child to the hospital.
Fortunately, I went in time, the child did not have much of a problem, under the doctor's diagnosis and treatment, the child successfully reduced the fever, and there was no recurrence.
The doctor reminds that the child's fever needs to be dissipated, and the child cannot be warmed, otherwise the situation may be further serious.
The doctor also reminded that the child's second fever and cold is likely to be covered up, and the mothers must pay attention to it in the future, and the child's fever must not be given to the child with the method of covering the heat and reducing fever.
Doctors remind that children are often too cold to be hot and easy to have problems, especially when they have a cold and fever.
Why do old people always like to wear a lot for children when they bring their babies, and worry about the children being cold?
Problems with judgment methods
The elderly judge the child's hot and cold, there are often some misunderstandings, that is, they like to judge the baby's hot and cold by touching the baby's hands and feet. As everyone knows, the baby's hot and cold may not be completely reflected through the hands and feet. Therefore, the baby's hands and feet are sometimes cold, but it does not mean that the baby is really cold.
The right way to judge whether your baby is hot or cold is by touching your baby's vest. See if the baby's vest is warm, if the baby's vest is warm, it means that the baby is dressed appropriately. If the baby's vest is cold, it means that the baby is really a little cold, pay attention to increasing clothing, if the baby's vest is a little sweaty, then it means that the baby is hot, you need to pay attention to reduce clothing.
The old man starts from himself and judges whether the baby is hot or cold
For elderly people, they are often more afraid of cold, and the baby goes to the opposite, for the baby, the baby's body temperature is higher than that of adults, and it is often cold and hot.
In addition, the elderly generally have less exercise and are more likely to feel cold; while children are active and lively, and on weekdays, they are often prone to sweating and are not easy to feel cold. At this time, if you wear it, it is easy to cause the baby's sweating to intensify, which will cause the baby's clothes to be wet with sweat, so that it is blown by the cold wind, which is more likely to increase the probability of the baby's cold and fever.
If the elderly judge whether the child is hot or cold, always starting from themselves, then it is often easy to judge the error, so that the baby is always cold, like to dress the baby more to avoid the baby's cold.
Therefore, for the healthy development of children, when there are elderly people with babies at home, as the parents of children, we must remind the elderly not to wear too much for children.
In addition, it is also necessary to remind the elderly not to wash the child too hot water when bathing the child, otherwise it is easy to burn the baby's delicate skin, resulting in problems with the baby's skin.
It is a blessing for young people to have the elderly with a baby, but for us as parents, we can not completely become the treasurer, but we should correct some misunderstandings of the elderly with the baby in time, and communicate with the elderly, so as to better promote the healthy development of children and promote the harmony of the family.
