1. How to choose a bottle/milk storage good?
Newborns and babies will only suck and drink milk. Therefore, in addition to direct breastfeeding, bottles are required when brewing milk powder/breast milk with a breast pump. Due to the different situations of each family, the breast pump is not introduced, and if the milk volume is better, try to choose the mainstream bilateral electric style. The following is mainly to briefly talk about the selection of bottles for everyone.
1.1 The material of the bottle
Bottle material: The main materials of the bottle body are glass bottles and plastic bottles. Among them, plastic bottles are divided into PA material bottles, PP material bottles, PPSU material bottles, PES material bottles, and silicone bottles. Choose plastic bottles, BIS PC material has been banned at present, try to choose a regular bottle manufacturing brand.
1.1.1 Advantages and disadvantages of glass bottles
Advantages of glass bottles: high temperature resistance, cooking resistance, steam sterilizer / pot into the bottle without deformation; high hardness and scratch resistance; corrosion resistance; not easy to hide dirt and grime. Disadvantages of glass bottles: heavy weight; hard material. The wall of the bottle is thick, and after the water is poured, part of the heat will be absorbed by the bottle wall, and the water temperature will cool down.
Glass bottle shell is still relatively common. Relatively popular, and the quality is relatively stable. Accessories are abundant and relatively easy to buy.
In addition, as a popular breast pump brand, his glass bottle is also more popular.
1.1.2 Advantages and disadvantages of plastic bottles
Plastic bottles, generally speaking, are prohibited from using PC materials, which are easy to release BPA carcinogens when heated. Common materials are PA bottles, PP bottles, PPSU bottles, PES bottles, and silicone bottles. The advantages of plastic bottles: plastic bottles are relatively light in weight, it is more convenient to carry out, and can be made into many shapes, there are currently many kinds of bottles with anti-flatulence, anti-choking milk and other selling points, many of which are made of plastic materials, because the plastic bottles are more malleable. In addition, the cup wall of the plastic bottle is relatively thin, and it will not have much cooling effect on the brewed water temperature relatively speaking. Disadvantages of plastic bottles: Because the bottle is a special baby product that needs to be repeatedly heated and disinfected, under repeated heating and disinfection, repeated wiping, the durability of the plastic bottle is obviously not as solid as the glass bottle. It will be affected by scratches and aging materials.
The more common silicone bottles in plastic bottles are more common is the brand of Coco Coco, the whole is silicone material, and the feel is soft and special.
In addition, there are also some plastic bottles with anti-choking milk design, and the slope of the bottle is relatively slow. The disadvantage is that the price is relatively expensive, and the accessories are relatively not versatile enough. If your baby is choking on milk, try this specially designed bottle.
The appearance of ordinary plastic bottles is not much different from that of glass bottles. It's just that there are some differences in the material, and even many accessories can be used universally.
1.2 Caliber and size of the bottle
There are two main dimensions to be concerned about in the size of the bottle, one is the aperture of the nipple and the other is the caliber of the bottle.
1.2.1 Aperture of the nipple
Take the more common Shelley bottle as an example, his bottle has SS S M L LL LLL these sizes. Different models represent the opening size of the nipple, which mainly affects the flow rate of the bottle. It is recommended to use S/SS for babies who are too small, because babies who are too small swallow slowly and may be easier to choke if they use a pacifier with too large aperture. After the baby is older, it is replaced by a relatively large aperture, so that you can eat faster, and the baby will eat with less effort.
1.2.2 Caliber of the bottle
Caliber refers to the opening size of the bottle, and it is intuitive to see the difference between the standard caliber and the wide caliber bottle size. There are mainly standard caliber (36mm standard caliber bottles). There is also a wide bore (50mm wide mouth bottle). At present, the mainstream brands in the market basically use these two calibers, or produce bottles of these two calibers at the same time. The main brands are: Beiqin, Medela, Dr. Brown, NUK, Avent, Xinbei and so on. Generally speaking, it can be seen by the shape. Some accessories can also be used universally. If you are not sure, you can also consult the merchant who sells the bottle.
In addition to the above caliber sizes, there are also non-standard calibers such as 48, 63, and 70. Special caliber bottles need to be equipped with adapters such as milk dispensers.
1.3 Types of milk powder
In terms of milk powder, it is mainly divided into several age groups. In general: 0-6 months in the first stage (infant formula), 6-12 months in the second stage (for older infants), and 12-36 months in the third stage. Before purchasing, you still have to refer to the introduction of milk powder packaging. If you are allergic to milk milk powder, there are also expensive but not easy to allergy to the grandmother powder. Of course, if breast milk is sufficient, you can save a lot of milk powder costs. Different milk powders have different temperature requirements for milking, generally speaking, they are lower than 50 degrees, so that they can better maintain the nutrition in milk powder under the premise of opening milk powder. Below there are some common milk powder data can be referred to. Specifically, the temperature description on the milk powder box shall prevail.
In previous years, it was still very common to find someone to bring milk powder. Even offline supermarkets in Australia and New Zealand have launched purchase restrictions. In recent years, the timeliness and safety of Haitao milk powder have not been guaranteed. If necessary, it is more suitable to start in the regular domestic large-scale e-commerce mall. One is fast delivery, and the other is a good production date. In addition, large supermarkets offline is also a more reliable way, offline large mother and baby stores are generally slightly more expensive than online, better than more flexible.
1.4 Methods of milk storage
If breast milk is better, less milk powder is needed. But then, what needs to be considered is the problem of milk storage. Different breast pumps will have their own different bottles. Generally speaking, the bottle is placed in the refrigerator at 0-4 degrees of maternal and infant refrigeration space. The date and time of collection are marked on the bottle, and breast milk can be stored for 8 days when refrigerated at 0-4 °C, and it is generally recommended not to exceed 72 hours. If you can't drink it all within 72 hours, breast milk stored in the cold room for up to 72 hours can be frozen using a milk storage bag. Store them frozen in case you need them. The date is also written on the milk storage bag, generally speaking, it can be frozen and stored for 3-4 months (generally more than 6 months, but if the milk is large, the refrigerator will soon be full, and it does not make much sense to save more time). When using a milk storage bag to freeze, be careful not to fill it too full (to prevent the volume from becoming larger after freezing and opening the bag). In addition, it is not thawed repeatedly, if you can't drink it after thawing, the rest of it will be poured, and it will not be frozen again.
2. How to choose a good thing for the milk adjuster/warmer?
Due to the temperature requirements for brewed milk powder, refrigerated breast milk must also be hot to more than 37 degrees before it is suitable for feeding. So after the introduction of the bottle, milk powder, and breast milk above. Let's talk about the brewer used to prepare the milk brewing water, and the selection of milk warmer utensils.
2.1 Portable milk warmer
The main purpose of the milk regulator is to stabilize the water temperature, so it is also called "constant temperature adjuster", also called portable thermostat. The main thing is to provide warm water with stable water temperature, so that it is convenient for parents to take it directly and directly flush milk. The milk warmer is an instrument that can contact the brewed milk powder or breast milk to keep the temperature constant, and this kind of appliance can generally be connected directly with the bottle. The milk conditioner and the milk warmer are also divided into the difference between rechargeable and plug-in type. Relatively speaking, it is recommended that Colorful Jingle this portable charging model of milk adjuster + milk warmer in one. It can be used as a milk dispenser to provide the hot water needed to brew milk powder. It can also be used as a milk warmer, directly screwed on the bottle to maintain the temperature of the milk in the bottle.
Material: Since it is in direct contact with the brewing water and the bottle itself, it needs to be materially safe. This one uses high borosilicate glass and a 316 stainless steel chassis. The fuselage is removable, cleaning is also more convenient, there will be no cleaning dead ends;
Blender mode: This blender is made of high borosilicate glass and has a capacity of 350ml. The 4500mah battery in the machine can provide 10 hours of constant temperature insulation, and can also heat 10 parts of 120ml of room temperature water to 50 ° C. There is warm water that can be used to flush milk without plugging in, and the temperature regulation of the four stages of 37 ~ 50 ° C meets the requirements of various common milk powders.
Warmer mode: If your baby drinks milk slowly, the milk becomes colder. Or stop halfway through the milk and continue drinking later. This requires a milk warmer to keep the temperature of the soaked milk/breast milk in the bottle. This blender can also be attached to the bottle (50mm wide caliber by default, standard caliber and other calibers need to be used with adapter rings) to play a role in keeping warm and warming milk.
Portable: This one is a charging style with 4500mAh power. Charging once, it can provide 5 to 10 hours of heat preservation, and can also heat up 120 ml of water to 40 ° C with 10 parts. It can meet the needs of about 10 brews. When you are outside, you can provide hot water or use it to warm milk anytime and anywhere, and you can also use it as a wired model when you are at home; when there is no power, you can connect to the car, connect the charging treasure to continue charging, and the weight is only 500g, and you don't have to worry about breastfeeding when you go out to walk the baby.
2.2 Thermostatic milk regulator
This thermostat is a more common style at home. It can provide constant temperature to flush milk water. Adjustable temperature, at room temperature ~ 90 ° C. After the breastfeeding period, it can also be used as a household thermostat. Compared to portable, this need is always plugged in. In addition, it is not possible to connect directly to the bottle to warm the milk.
2.3 Constant temperature kettle
In addition to these, there is also the option of a thermostatic kettle. However, the temperature control of the thermostatic kettle is relatively not very precise. For example, the following beautiful pot, only 45 ° C and 55 ° C gear, Zoji only 60 ° C gear, there are some errors in the temperature up and down, and can not accurately meet the brewing temperature. The advantage is that it can be used for both home and baby use.
2.4 Breast warmer
If you warm the milk at home, you can use a basin junction hot water to warm the milk, the disadvantage is that it is not easy to control the temperature, and it is not certain how much the warm milk is. For small babies, too hot or too cold milk is not very good. This milk warmer can be used to warm the milk.
3. How should I choose and buy diapers?
Diapers are essential in the process of raising a baby, but many parents have a negative attitude towards diapers. After the actual experience of raising a baby, in fact, the two words that need to be paid attention to when using diapers are - change frequently! Generally speaking, most of the diapers with relatively high quality are breathable. If there is no water absorption or pull stink, basically there will be no red ass, and most of the red ass is not found in time, or it has become hot and breathless after booing several times. Change the diligent, boo 2-3 times, change! Stinky, timely discovery and timely change! The more frequently you change, the more the red ass will be reduced. Expensive diapers generally work well, and it is not easy to red ass after sucking a lot. However, if the high-end diaper is changed frequently, the economic expenditure is relatively large. It is more recommended to choose the big-name economic model as a daily style to replace frequently, and a small number of large-name high-end models as night-time sleep models to reduce the impact of night-time replacement on sleep. In addition, young children are recommended to buy better diapers, and older children can be gradually replaced with more affordable diapers.
The following introduces several good diapers for everyone to provide reference, to Yunica and Bangbaoshi as an example: small months of age / usually at night to choose Yunica Royal, Bangbaoshi level of help such a relatively expensive diapers. Large month age / daytime frequent replacement of the choice of Yunica ordinary model and Bangbao shi ultra-thin dry this price is cheap, urine 2-3 times, pull once directly with the change of the style.
4. Baby sleep good things to buy
It is very important to do a good job of sleeping in babies, sleep habits have not yet been formed, and babies only drink milk, and it is normal to wake up frequently when they are hungry in the middle of the night. To fall asleep quickly after feeding your baby. After each feeding hiccup, anti-flatulence work should be done well, and a better sleeping environment should be created. In the room, try to choose blackout curtains to eliminate various sound interferences. Then there are the sleep items that all kinds of babies use.
4.1 Baby towels
The hands and feet of small babies are better able to simulate the state before birth, and will also make the baby more secure, and the scarf is more suitable for babies with low months of age.
4.2 Baby sleeping bag
There are two kinds of sleeping bags, one is a sleeping bag similar to the shape of a swaddling, and the other is a sleeping bag that is almost directly worn with clothes. Suitable for babies of different months of age.
4.3 Baby placing kit
For small babies, comforters are like adults who like to hug quilts. The familiar touch can make your baby sleep more peacefully.
4.4 Soothing toys
This type of toy, represented by Fisher's little seahorse, can provide white noise and weak light. It is certainly not enough to rely on it to coax it to sleep. But it can provide a sense of sleeping ritual. Remind your baby that it's time for bedtime.
5. Purchase of travel supplies
Travel here is mainly introduced in two parts, namely car travel (child safety seats), and the other is stroller travel (cribs, umbrella cars, running cars). Let's take a look!
5.1 Travelling by car
5.1.1 What are the safety standards for car seats?
At present, China's market access is the national standard GB 27887-2011, that is, 3C access. The European market access standard is Euro Standard ECE R44/04. Parallel to the European Standard ECE R44/04 is the EU ECE R129 certification, which is the most common I-SIZE seat on the market recently. I-SIZE is currently the most stringent certification. If you're getting into a car seat in the near future, try to choose the latest and most stringent I-SIZE car seat.
NATIONAL STANDARD GB 27887-2011: As a child seat listed in China, it must first meet the national standard GB 27887-2011, and only products that meet the national standard can obtain market access and obtain the 3C mark. The standard was developed with reference to the European standard ECE R44/04 standard. Among them, the European standard ECE R44/04 standard is also the current access standard for the European market.
European standard ECE R44/04: ECE R44 standard passed in September 1995 into force, the setting of the standard after a more realistic crash test, the head protection, seat belt system and other aspects of the strict regulations, ECE R44 new standard ECE R44/04 officially entered into force in June 2006. All child seats currently available in Europe must comply with the ECE R44/04 standard. The ECE R44/04 logo can be seen on some car seats.
I-SIZE Car Seat (EU ECE R129 Certification): I-SIZE (ECE R129) is currently the most stringent car seat regulation certification. It is currently parallel to the ECE R44 standard. Among them, the I-Size (ECE R129) standard compared with the European Union's ECE R44/04 standard is different: 1. The age group for backward installation is expanded from 9 months to 15 months. 2. In addition to the front and rear collision protection requirements, the side collision protection requirements have also been newly added. 3. IsoFIX interface is required. Avoid incorrect installation. 4. Adjustments and updates have been made in terms of fixing methods and grouping standards, so as to improve the test standards of car seats.
5.1.2 Car Seat Recommendations
Recently, if you choose a car seat, I recommend The Wheelon Smart Pro. This is a car seat for groups 0+, I, II. (Group 0 + = weight 0-13KG, Group I = weight 9~18KG, Group II = Weight 15~25KG). Converted to an age of about 7 years old. Car seats that meet the I-SIZE standard are available for all ages from 0 to 7 years old.
In addition, it is worth mentioning that it is equipped with 4 installation indicators, which correspond to: ISOFIX interface installation status, support foot installation status, five-point seat belt status, 360 ° rotation state. If it is not in the safety state, the corresponding indicator light will turn red, and when the four lights are green, the car seat is in the installation safety state. The purchase of a car seat with a high safety factor is on the one hand, and the correct installation and use is the key, and at this point, the Smart Turn PRO is very worth starting with.
In terms of rotation, it supports 360° infinite rotation, supports forward and reverse use, and also supports 90° hover. This makes it very convenient for your baby to get on and off the bus. When you want to get on and off the bus, just turn it directly to the side. Whether it's adjusting the seat belt, or getting on and off the bus, it's easy.
Five-speed adjustment of front and back. The angle range is large and can also improve the comfort of children's rides.
5.2 Types of strollers
In terms of the purchase of baby carriages, the main ones are: high-landscape strollers, umbrella cars, and running cars.
High Landscape Stroller: This kind of car is more versatile. Children can lie down. The weight is between an umbrella car and a treadmill. Not particularly lightweight. The advantage is that 0 years old is available, suitable for babies with young months of age. The price generally ranges from hundreds to thousands of yuan. Different price points vary greatly. There is a certain shock absorption performance, the wheels are medium, and the outdoor passing ability is medium.
Umbrella car: Umbrella car is relatively light. The lightest basic is within 4 KG. You need to be able to sit before you can push. The wheels are generally smaller and more suitable for flat roads. Shock absorption is almost non-existent.
Running stroller: I have seen the recommendation of the big mom before, and I got into this kind of running car of Gray. The tires of this type of car are inflated. Spoke tires. Shock absorption and passability are very good. Perfect for going to the park. Perfect for long walks, the various parks can be known in one go. The pavement is unimpeded with asphalt roads, brick roads and dirt roads. Basically, it belongs to the buggy of the stroller. This kind of car requires the baby to be at least seven or eight months old before he can sit on his own. Cannot lie flat. Walk the baby sharps.
However, it is not popular in China. There are also very few manufacturers that make similar products. Previously, Amazon bought it overseas. Only a few on Tmall have this product. If you want to take your baby to the park often, then this is definitely worth it.
6. Purchase of young toys
Bath toys: Children may be afraid of water when bathing. Buying more bath toys can make children more cooperative with bathing. There are mainly a variety of water scoops, clockwork swimming toys and so on. Greatly improve bath joy.
Plush toys: In infancy, plush toys take into account the use of saliva towels, teething sticks and so on. Try to choose big-name products Choose some brands that specialize in baby products. Toys that have reached the ingress safety level are required.
Ringing: In terms of ringing, you need to buy a big name. Start with a fixed all-in-one. In this way, the rattle is relatively safe and will not drop small parts. I bought Anpanman, the special price was about thirty or forty-one, the price is not cheap, but the quality is still very powerful. Young babies' toys should be checked. Try to get into large, smooth, whole-piece toys with no small parts.
7. Purchase of picture books for young people
I've written too many picture book posts. Unfolded and written on the thousands of words, put a picture to put a link, you can refer to it.
8. Purchase of complementary foods
8.1 Tableware + Dining Supplies Recommended:
When adding complementary foods, the tableware that is more worth getting started with and the items prepared during meals are: silicone spoons, bibs, scraping spoons, water insulation bowls, straw bowls, small dining chairs, suction cup bowls, and dividing trays.
Silicone spoon: at the beginning of the addition of complementary food need silicone small spoon, because the baby is eating breast milk or milk powder before, the silicone touch is still more adaptable, do not use a metal spoon at the beginning, too hard. Pay attention to the choice of regular brand, safe material can be.
Bib: Bib is also essential when adding complementary foods. You can keep your clothes clean and it's easier to pack them up.
Scraping spoon: Can be used for simple fruit puree operation. It is recommended to use a food supplement or a stir bar for a large number of purees.
Insulated bowl: Helps maintain food temperature. After all, complementary foods are not suitable for repeated heating.
Straw bowl: Is a soup drinking tool for babies, you can also prepare one if needed. Not a necessity, it can also be replaced with another bowl.
Children's dining chair: It is still necessary. You can start with this kind of special children's dining chair, or you can start with a dining chair bound to an ordinary chair at home. You can choose according to the actual situation at home.
Suction cup bowl: also a non-essential cutlery. Conveniently secure the bowl to a small dining table to prevent it from falling. It can also be replaced with another bowl.
Compartment plate: Suitable for older children, when they can eat by themselves. Enhance the enjoyment of dining.
8.2 Kitchenware:
In terms of kitchen utensils, a set of independent kitchen utensils should be prepared for the baby's food supplement. You can start with a separate cutting board/knife, a separate pot (milk pan, frying pan), a constant temperature kettle to make rice noodles, an oil bottle, and so on.
Independent cutting board: To make complementary food for your baby, a separate cutting board is a must. On the one hand, it prevents allergies from mixing ingredients, and on the other hand, it prevents raw and cooked mixtures from contaminating bacteria. The hygiene of complementary foods should still be paid great attention to, so that raw and cooked are separated, and meat and vegetarian are separated.
Pots and pans: Prepare a frying pan and a milk pan. You can use it when making small cakes and making porridge.
Thermostatic kettle: It is recommended to start a thermostatic kettle. Because it is the kind of person who has to boil water from 100 ° C to cool down every time and then go to make rice noodles, it is too troublesome. You can start with this kind of hot water kettle, constantly kept warm, about 60-70 ° C water, rice flour melted more thoroughly, and soon can drop to the temperature suitable for the entrance.
Oil injector: mainly to facilitate the control of oil volume. Children can generally prepare a small amount of oil to make complementary foods. This is more convenient.
8.3 Grinding and crushing tools:
Because your baby's complementary foods often need to be made into pastes, mud, or need to be broken. Therefore, the equipment of mixing/grinding is essential. There are mainly grinding bowls, mixing sticks, stirring food supplements, integrated food supplements.
You can mainly consider starting with a food supplement machine or a stirring stick. The food supplement machine is equipped with a glass bowl, which is directly whipped into one, supporting micro-whipping, which is more practical. In addition, the stirring rod can be used for both families. The two models have similar features, so you can start with one of them.
summary
