The birth of the baby is a new test for every mother, especially for novice mothers, the baby's actions will attract the attention of the mother, especially some abnormal changes.
The baby weighs less, and the novice mother panics
Xiao Gu is a novice mother, a new mother, Xiao Gu is trembling, fortunately, the baby was born smoothly, everything went smoothly, but on the third day of the baby's birth, Xiao Gu found that the baby's weight suddenly dropped, which made Xiao Gu a little panicked.
"Could it be that the baby is sick", Xiao Gu's head was full of worries about the baby's health, but fortunately, the doctor responded in time, the baby's weight loss was normal, and Xiao Gu put his heart in his stomach.
The newborn baby has just been born, not long after leaving the mother's belly, the body will definitely undergo "abnormal" changes, especially in the first week of the baby's birth, if the mother finds that the baby has the following five changes, don't panic, are normal.
Five "paradoxical" changes in newborns are normal
(1) Weight loss
Many babies have not long been born, there will be weight loss, many mothers will be the same as Xiao Gu, easy to think cranky, but in fact, the baby has this situation, it is normal, especially in the first week after the baby is born.
The reason for this is mainly because after the baby is born, whether it is excretion or breathing, it will consume water in the body, but the baby is still exercising to pump at this time, which leads to the baby not being able to take enough milk, and the baby's weight will naturally decrease.
(2) Increased body temperature
Most newborn babies weigh around 37 degrees Celsius, but careful mothers will find that within a few days of birth, the baby's body temperature begins to rise, possibly reaching 38 degrees Celsius, which we can call "temporary fever"
This situation generally appears 2~5 days after the baby is born, mainly because of the lack of water in the baby's body, when the baby has this situation, the mother can give the baby some water or breast milk. But if the baby's body temperature continues to be 38 degrees Celsius or lower than 35 degrees Celsius, the mother still has to take the baby to the doctor in time.
(3) The color of the poop is strange
Many experienced mothers usually observe the baby's bowel movements and the color of the baby's poop. But for novice mothers, this awareness may not have been formed.
In the first few days of the baby's birth, the baby's poop will appear brown or dark green, novice mothers do not panic, this is also normal. These strange color poop is actually "meconium", and the reason why this color appears is mainly because the baby eats a lot of amniotic fluid and intestinal mucosa in the mother's belly.
In this case, the mother does not have to worry too much, and after the baby can be born for a week, this situation will disappear, and the baby's poop will also turn into a normal color, that is, the common earthy yellow.
(4) Red urine appears
Newborn babies always boo, but each time the amount of urine is very small, this is very normal, but after some babies are born, there is red urine, which makes the mother frightened, is the baby urinating "blood"?
In fact, the baby appears red urine, not necessarily urine blood, the baby just one month after birth, a similar situation, may be because the baby's urine contains hydrochloric acid crystals, are normal, the mother does not have to worry too much, if not worried, you can take the baby on time to check.
(5) Unsteady breathing and strange sounds
In the first three days of the baby's birth, breathing is easy to be unstable, and the baby at this time will only breathe through the nose, so when the mother finds that the baby makes strange noises, we can first observe whether the baby's nose is blocked by nasal discharge, and the nose is not smooth!
In addition, the baby will also have a lot of strange sounds, especially the "chirping" sound, this is mainly because the baby's throat is still developing, very soft and easy to deform, so it is easy to make strange sounds, do not panic when encountering similar situations, and when the baby grows up, this situation will not happen.
