Taking good care of the baby’s health in the first months after birth is a matter of great concern. Breastfeeding is something that everyone knows, but there is often a doubt in many people’s minds that breastmilk is given, but how do you know that the child has received it? To understand this, it is enough to pay attention to a few things.
Knowing if the child’s daily weight is the right weight, you can know if the breast milk is getting enough. A child usually urinates six to 12 times a day. The stool will not be too thick, the child will sleep well and gain weight. If it is like this, it can be understood that the child has got enough breast milk.
In the first 10 days the weight will be reduced and then in 10-14 days the child will regain the birth weight. Then 30 to 40 grams of weight will increase daily. Baby crying is not only because of lack of milk. Baby massage is a good thing. Massage with oil. Coconut oil can be used. After 2 to 4 weeks, oil massage can be started. If the child is tired, see the doctor. The thing to be careful about while touching the child is to keep the hand clean. Children should not use eyeliner powder.
If the umbilical cord falls off, it is enough to clean it well. There is no need to apply any medicines or lotions. Clean the child properly. If there is water in the body, sign it. Always keep the cloth clean. After using the cloth, the cloth should be changed immediately. The next thing to consider is getting the child vaccinated.
