In the journey of the baby's growth, parents always care about all kinds of parenting knowledge to ensure that the baby grows up healthy and happy.
1. Baobao Tao Great Talent Shouting Water?
Before the baby is six months old, the baby's gastrointestinal capacity is relatively small, and it is not advisable to introduce water too early. Babies under the age of six months can get enough water from breast milk or formula, and extra water may affect the baby's normal growth and development.
2. Honey should not be drunk before the baby is one year old
Honey may be contaminated with Clostridium botulinum and is vulnerable to the intestinal tract of babies under one year of age, so it is not recommended to give honey to babies before one year of age.
3. Rinse the milk powder with water first and then put the powder
When making milk powder, you should measure the appropriate amount of water first, and then add the corresponding amount of milk powder and stir thoroughly. This avoids clumping of the formula and ensures the quality of the milk your baby is drinking.
4. Do not give your baby plain milk before the age of 1
There is a big difference between the protein ratio in pure milk and breast milk, which is difficult for babies to digest and absorb, and may cause a burden on the kidneys.
5. Iron-rich foods are the first choice for complementary foods
After 6 months, your baby's iron stores will begin to decrease, so it is recommended to choose foods with high iron content, such as iron-fortified rice noodles and red meat puree, to ensure that your baby gets enough iron.
6. It's best to have light meals for your baby
Babies under the age of one do not need to add salt, monosodium glutamate, soy sauce and other seasonings to the baby's complementary food, and babies over one year old should also reduce the use of seasonings in an appropriate amount to cultivate the baby's light taste, which helps to reduce the risk of hypertension in the future.
7. Having a natural birth doesn't mean being smarter
The baby's intelligence is affected by many factors such as congenital genetics and acquired environment, and the birth canal is not directly related to the baby's intelligence. More importantly, it provides a good growth environment and education in the later parenting process.
8. The whirlwind on the head has nothing to do with intelligence
The swirl on the head is the direction of hair growth, and has nothing to do with the baby's intelligence level. Therefore, parents do not need to pay too much attention to the direction of their baby's hair growth.
9. Pay attention to how to blow your nose
When blowing your nose, avoid pinching both nostrils at the same time, so as not to cause excessive air pressure in the nose and cause problems such as otitis media. The correct way to do this is to cover one nostril with a tissue and pinch the other nostril to blow your nose.
10. Be cautious about your diet while breastfeeding
Breastfeeding mothers should be careful to avoid fish with high mercury concentrations, limit alcohol intake, consume caffeine in moderation, and avoid allergens according to individual differences. In special cases, a special diet is carried out according to the doctor's recommendation.
11. Your baby may not be constipated, it may be a "belly pack"
At 3-6 weeks of age, your baby may have less frequent stools due to improved digestion and absorption, reduced food debris. As long as the baby's stool shape is normal and the mental state is good, there is no need to worry too much.
12. Probiotics are not the first choice for treating constipation
Pediatric doctors generally do not recommend over-reliance on probiotics for constipation. When the baby is constipated, it should start from increasing dietary fiber, cultivating good bowel Xi, etc., and if necessary, drug treatment can be used under the guidance of a doctor.
13. Babies under the age of one should not learn to swim
Babies under the age of one learn to swim mainly in the water, and cannot really learn to swim. The collars provided by the pool can injure the neck, while the water quality and towels can cause skin problems. It is recommended to wait for the baby to understand swimming safety knowledge before carrying out corresponding activities.
14. Child safety seats are the most worthwhile safety measure to invest in
To protect your child's safety in a traffic accident, it is recommended that all children under the age of 13 should sit in a child safety seat in the back seat of the car. Choosing the right car seat style and making sure it's used correctly is one of the most worthwhile safety measures for parents to invest in.
15. Don't change sides frequently when feeding
When feeding, you don't have to change your breasts too often. When one breast is sucked relatively empty, switching to the other side will help your baby get enough foremilk and aftermilk, so you don't have to worry too much about the amount and quality of milk at each feeding.
16. Mothers can breastfeed when they have a cold
When the mother has a cold, the milk will not be transmitted to the baby, but through the milk, the baby can obtain the antibodies in the mother's body, which has certain benefits for the baby's health. However, before feeding and holding the baby, mothers should pay attention to maintaining good Xi habits, including washing hands and wearing masks.
17. It's normal for babies to spit up
Spitting up is normal and usually decreases after 4-5 months of age. As long as your baby is in normal condition after spitting up, there is no need to worry too much. However, if the baby has related abnormal symptoms, you should seek medical attention in time.
18. Babies have different teething times
The time for a baby to erupt varies from person to person, but it is normal for a baby to erupt before the age of one and a half, so there is no need to be overly anxious. Parents should pay attention to the care of their babies after teething to ensure their baby's oral health.
19. Self-paid vaccines are selected according to actual needs
Self-paid vaccines are non-immunization programme vaccines, and parents should choose whether to receive them according to their actual needs. When there are options for self-paid and free vaccines, the choice should be based on your baby's individual situation and the doctor's recommendations.
20. Pillows are not required before the age of one
It is generally believed that babies before the age of one do not need to use a pillow to prevent the risk of suffocation caused by the pillow covering the mouth and nose. Parents should make sure that their babies are safe while they are sleeping and do not put too many items on the bed.
By understanding this knowledge, parents can better ensure the healthy growth of their babies. I hope that every parent can become a good parent who knows how to care for their baby in the process of growing up.
