Some facts about newborn babies!

 A newborn is a blank sheet of paper, only needs to eat, suck, sleep, pee, poop, no need to shake, sing a lullaby or carry around. All are self-interpreted by adults and made into habits for children.


    Newborns , born will have a honeymoon (2-4 weeks first). True to the name of the honeymoon, during this time the baby only eats and sleeps, there is almost no time to wake up, mom thinks he is very good until the honeymoon is over. Many babies will end their honeymoon at the 3rd or 4th week, get confused day and night (sleepless day, sleep every 15-20 minutes, wake up once every night), and then have a wonder week (week of crisis, development and completion). improve skills) at the 5th week that the ladies often say it's bad.
Newborns are completely capable of falling asleep on their own without being carried around for hours. Just need to know how to choose the right method for the baby.

Children over 6kg can accumulate energy to sleep through the night without eating. A long night's sleep is very important for the brain development and height of children, just eating is not enough. Newborn babies need 11-12 hours of sleep at night.
Newborn babies have a lot of cries: hungry crying, crying in need of mother's comfort, hot/cold crying, sleepy crying, dirty diaper crying, etc. Each cry has a different tone and intensity, so it doesn't have to be automatic. Breastfeeding is as hungry as the legend of the grandmother, just calm down or give the child a fixed schedule to distinguish it very easily.

When the baby needs to be comforted, just suck it cool, no need to suck. That's why the dummy was born . There is a pacifier that is always on the baby's body, which is the finger. Therefore, never stop your baby from sucking, but clean your baby's fingers regularly.
Grandparents do not allow the child to stand up, afraid of the child's back, but always default to the child lying in a hammock. Things that greatly affect the baby's spine in the future, even having a bamboo cradle or towel lining are harmful

Neck And Gait Not Straight When Growing Up.

– What children need is a bed that does not shake and a mattress that is firm enough to lie on.
Children under 4 months only need breast milk/ formula milk .
- Babies are born with moro reflex and have not yet mastered their own limbs, so they are often startled and slap their hands in the face, then cry. The baby pillow has the feeling of being hugged tightly and being close to the mother, which will limit the startling of the hand hitting the face while sleeping, so the baby can sleep deeply and better. The moro reflex will gradually disappear as the baby gets older, usually between 3-4 months old, so 4 months is the right time to wean off aids such as swaddling, pacifier, white noise. Some babies will wean earlier and some will need to wean later.
Infants sleep cycles are shorter than adults, and babies sleep a lot in rapid eye movement (REM) – which is essential for the special development of their brains.

    An infant's sleep lasts about 50 minutes. A long sleep consists of many short cycles, each of which begins with light sleep (sleeping and dreaming at the same time) and continues into deep sleep. Therefore, children usually wake up after 45-50 minutes of going to bed, if there is no adult intervention (taken out of the sleeping environment because they think the child is awake), the baby will go back to sleep on his own, some babies have to cry to reassure themselves. just slept again. This is the reason for the wait button.
Light sleep often looks like the baby is awake: the baby has facial and body movements. It's a sign the baby's brain is working, the nervous system is connecting, and the child is learning how to express and communicate emotions. We may mistakenly think that the baby is awake , but absolutely not , this sleep should be absolutely respected .
– Children will go through periods of crisis, development and skill improvement, called wonder weeks (ww), each passing milestone the child will learn more new things, but before that is a period of time. Physiological anorexia , irritability , trouble sleeping , clingy , nagging . The bigger the storm ww, the stronger it will be. What a mother needs to do during this time is to respect her child, not force her to feed/eat, and be patient with her child.

– Children are born with a default hair gene, so if you don't have to cut your hair, the next hair will be better. The better thing that adults think here is the uniformity of hair regrowth, so adults think after cutting it looks darker and thicker. Mistake.
“No Child Doesn't Get Sick A Few Times” It's important how adults prevent and treat illness.
– Newborn baby's body temperature always fluctuates 36-37 degrees Celsius. Mothers always prepare 2 thermometers to measure the baby's degrees.
- 37.5 degrees Celsius is a mild fever. If it is up to 38 degrees Celsius, it is necessary to intervene to reduce fever immediately according to the previous instructions of the Doctor.
– Because the progression of the infant's disease is very fast...for example, a high fever that parents do not pay attention to will lead to other dangerous complications, even affecting the baby's brain.
– SO: In addition to the previously learned knowledge. Mothers should keep 2 phone numbers of 2 pediatricians available so that in case of emergency, someone will provide timely first aid instructions.
The ideal air-conditioned room temperature for children to sleep well is 24-25 degrees. Note that the room temperature is not the temperature shown on the air conditioner remote control.
- Children's illness is caused by viruses, bacteria, the air conditioner is not guilty, so don't blame the air conditioner. If the fault is caused by the air conditioner, it is the adults who refuse to clean the air conditioner
– Babies & even adults will fall asleep very quickly or more calmly if there is white noise. Depending on the preferences of each child, some children like the sound of rain, some children like the noise of the TV, some children like the sound of the sea or the sound of running water, the sound of the dryer, the sound of the heartbeat. If you are in a fan room, your baby's bedroom should also be airy, clean and quiet.
- Babies need to be burped after feeding. Steam is the main reason why babies cry while nursing. Some babies need to be burped in the middle of a meal, not just after the meal. The baby's nipples are still suckling, but the button is pressed a few times, and the legs are crying. What the mother needs to do is stop breastfeeding and burp the baby, then continue the meal (because milk is the food of babies, so it can be called suck = eat).
Children stay up at night because they sleep too much during the day, waketime is not enough. This does not mean that making the child stay up a lot during the day will make the child sleep through the night. At each age, babies will have different awakening abilities. The older you are, the longer you can stay awake. But that's not why the mother let the baby stay awake. Newborn babies cannot follow the schedule of adults. If you think that the longer the day I stay awake so that the child can sleep better at night, then I am completely wrong and only make me overtired, more difficult to sleep & toss and turn. In order for your baby to sleep well at night, during the day, he needs short naps of no more than 2.5 hours/time, alternating with his ability to stay awake. To help your child have the most suitable schedule without overdoing them, you should learn about EASY.

- It is not necessary to put the child to bed later, the child will not wake up at night. If the baby goes to bed too late compared to the baby's needs (eg, at 7 pm, the child needs to go to bed, but the adults think that sleeping at this time will disturb the night, so make the child stay up until 9-10 pm to go to bed) will make the child go to bed. overtired , sleepy and harder to fall asleep .
–-The head is the heat outlet of the child, so the child does not need to wear a hat when the temperature is > 20 *, nor does it need to be covered up because it only makes the child sweat more, especially in hot weather.

- Hair loss, twisting, spitting, etc. are all physiological phenomena of children. The larger the phenomenon of twisting, the less it will be. And turban hair loss is caused by the contact with the head when the baby lies for too long in one position. If the child is breastfed, or lying on his side to breastfeed, the mother should change sides every day (for example, if you lie on the left today, the baby will be on the right tomorrow). All of these phenomena have nothing to do with calcium deficiency or excess. I can only supplement vitamin D for my baby. Absolutely do not arbitrarily supplement calcium without a doctor's prescription or a sample.
- When giving breast milk to your baby, suck on both sides so that the milk comes in evenly, Moms
- Mothers who want their baby to grow up with straight legs and a beautiful gait should not hold the baby under armpits early.
- And another special thing is that the lucky moms who have given birth but have breast milk to breastfeed (Cu Lac's mother would like to say that it is lucky because today, due to each person's situation, many Moms lose milk - children have to substitute with powdered milk). Then, after giving birth, remember to still maintain a good and scientific diet so that milk is full of nutrients for breastfeeding.
