Tips for Your Baby




Playtime

      Attention moms: the mess in your child's playtime is healthy, necessary and extremely important for the mental and motor development. Let your baby toys spread across the floor, who sing, dance, paint, cut, paste and give life to all inanimate toys.

In addition to talk and explain the mess that needs to be tidy, it is ideal to lead by example, showing in practice how the organization is essential in day-to-day.

      The physical interaction with everything around him is one of the factors that helps your child develop thinking and logic. Gradually, he discovers that every action generates a reaction and is often repeated some behaviors. Throwing food on the floor, pulling hair or pluck the leaves of plants can make their play favorites.

      Transform your home in the safest place in the world, so your child can play without undue risk. All products and potentially dangerous objects should be stored out of reach of children in high cabinets and, preferably, locked.

 

Feeding time

     
      Never replace breast milk for milk industrialized before the first 6 months of your child's life. The nutritional characteristics of milk are irreplaceable for feeding the baby. Breastfeeding should be exclusive (no teas, waters, juices, infant formula) in the first 6 months and supplemented with other foods for 2 years or more.

      The transition milk comes from the first 15 days of the baby. Thereafter, the milk begins to present its definitive characteristics. Consequently, the flow tends to settle, becoming more white than in the early days.

 

Bath time

      Newborn babies take the first bath still in the maternity ward, but only a few hours after birth. This is because, soon after birth, the baby's body temperature is slightly above the considered normal in adults, due to contact with the fluid in the womb of the mother.

     For some babies bath time becomes synonymous with stress. To make your child take this time as pleasant, mount a "bathroom kit" with some plastic toys and terry cloth - ideal to come into contact with water, it does not spoil. Let your child do this when the time of the day more fun!

 

Bedtime

      It is important you respect the rhythm of your child. Gradually, create a routine for hours to sleep and always try to keep the schedules. But always remember that each child is unique and that the behavior of one will not be repeated in the other. So be patient until your baby is hit with the clock and has a long night's sleep.

      During the first 3 months of life your baby does not distinguish day from night. So many small exchange on the night stage. To help your child understand the difference between day and night, during the night do not turn on bright lights or make too much noise and so end up feeding him, then put it back in the cradle. Already during the daytime sleep, let him sleep in environments not too dark and not avoid the common noises of the house during the day.

      If at night your child cry before picking him up, make sure the diaper is a bit dry, if it is hungry or pain and is covered. If all is well, reassure your baby without too much pampering. Give a kiss goodnight and leave the room fast.

      Some tips about your child's room can also be very useful. First of all, do not place the crib under the window. This will prevent it will be exposed to unexpected rain, wind and sun. Note that the pillow is suitable for the size of your baby. Remember that very large pillows can damage the spine. Finally, do not decorate the room with bright colors, because it stirs the child. Give a special color to your child's room with toys and decorative objects. Mobiles, for example, in addition to beautiful, stimulating vision of the small.
