When pregnant, you must diligently read-read books and magazines about pregnancy and parenting. You get a lot of information about childbirth, periods of sleep deprivation when the child was present, and the ways breastfeeding. However, you already know how the condition of newborns? For example, why his eyes squint, or the sound of heavy breathing?
Dr. Alanna Levine, parenting expert at Orangetown Pediatric Associates in New York, reveal the five things you might find on your baby:
1. Poop her squirt.
Do not just claim to have a baby when not seen scattered on the poop diaper. In fact, it can poop on the bed or wall around it.According to Dr. Levine, 'Poop newborns mostly in the form of liquid, mixed with a texture like mustard.' It does not need extra energy to clean it, just a little practice to get used to.Understandably, this will often have you experienced.
A fairly healthy infant feces are brown, or greenish yellow. If you see any signs of blood in there, you should bring the child to the doctor.
2. Moaning.
Babies do not just crying, but moaning, groaning, grunting, snoring, and various other strange sounds. All these strange sounds in the nasal cavity caused by the road narrows at the beginning of his birth a baby. This causes the mucus trapped in there, and created some great sound effects.
What can you do when you hear these voices is to clean baby's nose to nose with a suction pump. Note also whether the groan was heard in every breath. If so, maybe he had trouble breathing difficulty.
3. Disability head.
Childbirth is not only difficult experienced by the mother, but also the baby. He tried hard to get out of the birth channel. Imagine when you push when the baby is still not out completely. His head is still soft and malleable that must pass through your hip bone, causing the shape becomes flat or peyang.
If it does not occur during childbirth, peyang head shape that it can also happen if he is too old to sleep in the supine position.Therefore, frequently holding your baby, says Dr. Levine. Or, move, move the position of the toy or sleeping position, so he is not only facing one side only.
Well, if you've tried various ways but still the baby's head look flat in some places, the baby may need some kind of helmet while to correct the shape of his head. Such helmets are effective if used at age 4-6 months. Immediately consult a physician if you see anything wrong with his head.
4. His penis swollen.
In a baby boy, you might see his penis is slightly larger than you might imagine, especially in testes. This may be influenced by exposure to hormones in your stomach just before birth.Alternatively, there is extra fluid in the sac around the testicles.However, this fluid will be issued when the small bowel in the next few days.
The same thing happens to a baby girl, her labia which also looks swell in the early days. This swelling will also stop in a few days.In fact, because so much fluid that will be issued within a few days, the baby could lose 10 percent of his body weight.
To worry about is when the swelling still had not disappeared.Baby boys may experience a condition called hydrocele, fluid accumulation in the bag testicles.
5. His eyes squint.
Newborns obviously exploring all the new capabilities, one of which is the sense of sight. Little need time to find the control muscles, and sharpen its focus-technical engineering. However, the baby's eyes may appear crossed, though actually not. Extra skin folds on the bridge of the nose to cover the whites of the eyes of a baby. This can create an optical illusion called pseudoesotropia. Take a good look, whether the infant pupils actually flat lined, or move together?
According to Dr. Levine, if the baby is still showing signs of strabismus or eye 'wandering' anywhere up to six months, you need to take him to the doctor. If the eyes are staring julingnya visible chronic two-way, chances are he had strabismus. When only one eye that looked the other way, this is called amblyopia.
