1 First Hour in Baby’s Life

18 Dec 2010 by

Finally, after nine months of life in your womb, the child was present in your life. He cried, kicked, clenched, closed his eyes, and so forth. But, what the hell are supposed to be calculated and paid attention to the newborn to make sure he was healthy?

Once the baby is born, the doctor will check the health of the child and tell your baby’s condition by observation of his eyes. What the hell are taken into account by medical actors when a baby is born?

In the medical birth, so baby’s head appeared, which handles the birth will be using a kind of syringes without a needle to draw fluid that inhibit the nasal passages and mouth. Freeing the airways will help the baby breathe easier.

When the whole body out, the umbilical cord will be given a valve in two places. Then the doctor, nurse, or his father will be required to cut it. Samples from the baby’s blood will be taken to be analyzed later.

If this is your first child, you may be surprised to see the shape of your baby for the first time. He is not going to look pretty in pink like the one in the movies or in advertisements.

If you give birth naturally, like a baby’s head will form just passed a narrow channel. The form will change to normal within a few days. Hands and feet will look a bit blue because blood circulation has not been efficient. From the first breath inhalation, the baby will start crying spontaneously, or with minimal physical assistance, such as the sweep in the back or a pat on his leg, he’ll just move more. After a few minutes before the baby starts to look pink.

Do not be too surprised to see how babies breathe a little strange. Babies will little cough, discharge, and sneezing to remove fluid that inhibit the respiratory tract and begin to adapt to breathe air.

When babies are born normally, he will pass through a narrow hole. Approximately 50 cubic centimeters of fluid will be expelled from the lungs of infants in this way. The emphasis of these fluids will facilitate the baby to breathe better. While babies born in Caesar method will breathe faster and shorter until the liquid clog respiratory tract clean.

Normally, the way babies breathe differently from adults. How to breathe your baby may not be routine and periodic. Newborns may be many a long sigh, a little struggling, holding her breath, and breathing fast. Newborn respiratory tract more quickly than adults, about 40-60 per minute, while the adults around 20 breaths in 1 minute on average. His heartbeat is faster, about 120 beats per minute, while the adults around 70 beats per minute.

Once out of the womb, the baby will be coated white liquid attached to the skin. This layer protects the baby while in the womb. This fluid will be cleaned by the medical officer who also wiped from the amniotic fluid.

During 9 months, the baby is in the warm temperature of the mother’s body, once born, he had to adapt. Babies have skin that is more vulnerable to changes in temperature as it is still thin, so anything on his head, which has not much body hair. He must be covered with blankets immediately so as not to cold. Antibiotic eye drops are also used to directly given to prevent infection with gonorrhea. Then he will be given bookmarks on arms legs or hands.

After birth, the doctor in charge would give such a report card on the baby’s birth. The report card called the Apgar score. This Apgar score (derived from the name of the physician Virginia Apgar) assess the state of the baby soon after birth, the baby’s color, breathing capacity, muscle strength, heart rate, and response to stimuli. Figures 10 shows the best rate. Usually there are 2 digits, eg 9 / 10, meaning between the two figures.

Following earlier procedures, the baby will be wrapped in blankets, and then given to the mother or father. Now this has been requesting the treatment of early initiation of breastfeeding. That is, once born, the baby will be directly given to the mother to put in the chest so the baby went straight to the mother’s nipple and suckle.

Then the baby will be weighed and measured within a half hour after birth. After that the baby will be brought into the room to put in a warm room temperature. Then, the nurse will give the baby a bath first, followed by calculation of the signs of the health of the baby, of pulse, blood pressure, reflexes, eyes, head, genitals, skin, and hands. Although you choose in any rooming facility, the baby’s health will be examined first.

Baby will feel very comfortable being in your arms, where he could hear and feel the beat of your heart. This will calm the position close to you and the baby. Within days, he will grow and evolve so rapidly. Do not forget to enjoy your times and he started a relationship that closely.

Active Listening

09 Dec 2010 by

In a group, as a close family, very easy to think that you’ve heard everything, that you think you understand what’s on the mind of the toddler. But wait, do not assume that you already know what they say. Believe it or not, even infants also have their own opinions.

If your toddler has difficulty to understand, try to ignore other things and concentrate your focus to the child, this will help her understand that angry, screaming, and tantrums are not required to make it understandable.

There are many triggers that make parents stop trying to listen to his son. Parents who feel disturbed by their children would feel that child’s tantrums are a thing that makes angry, and attempt to solve every day, even lack of sleep at night can make it difficult to think clearly, and more often lack the ability to be patient.

Children under five have the diction is limited and can not express it well, so do not assume that they complain or naughty because he is fun, something must have disturbed him and wanted to communicate something. For example, she actually wet herself because she was afraid in the dark, or angry in the morning actually because she did not like bathing in the morning because it makes it cold. What is needed by the child is a reinforcement and a sense of comfort.

If you want to start listening to the child childhood, then you will have a close relationship with him. You need the proper equipment fit the child’s age and starting from small steps. Activities listen to the needs of children referred to as “Active Listening”. This helps parents to try to listen to children and will not assume what the will of the child. By listening to what a child’s will in earnest, it means you respect the feelings of the child and give him room to explore the problem, and maybe find a solution.

3 steps in Active Listening:
* Stop doing whatever you are doing and give full attention to the child.
* Understand what is he trying to say with little response. You could ask what she meant by pointing out things that he feels like he is annoying or reach.
* Do not assume to give advice, anger, lecture, or provide solutions directly. By asking and let him try to explain to you (not too long) will help him try to explore his thoughts.

10 Things about Childbirth is Important to Know by The Mother

26 Nov 2010 by

There are some things about the birth of a child that is important to know the mothers to prepare themselves. Following among others:

1. It’s not like in the movies
Often, in the movies, we see, when the actress who plays the role of pregnant women, when water broke, everyone was panicking, the mother staggered, experienced tremendous sudden contraction, and then shouted for a taxi. In fact, in real life, not always dramatic. Amniotic fluid is generally broken just before the birth of a child, and although first broke, do not have to hurry up and running to the hospital. Of course, you should immediately see your obstetrician, but that does not mean you can shout as he ran in the middle of the road. In real life, each baby’s birth process was very unique and special.

2. Date of birth, more precisely, the month of birth
A complete process of pregnancy lasts between 37-42 weeks. Approximate date of birth is an estimate, not a definite deadline. Most babies born even before or after the date of the estimate, the average child born 4 days after the date estimates are made by doctors. It is rather difficult to plan for the entire month as the moment of birth, date of birth but were too specific. Well, we can only get ready to wait for the birth of your baby and not fixated on the date given by the doctors.

3. The birth process through a special phase and have different challenges
The delivery process is a process that is rhythmic. The birth of the premature generally will last longer, but easier to handle than the birth of an active, which generally requires more focus and techniques cope with pain. Encourage your baby out in the suffix is something different and could be a change. Understanding the stages of birth will help you to deal with different ways.

4. Epidural is one of many ways to deal with the birth
There is much debate as to whether epidural is a good thing or not to be given to mothers who are in the process of giving birth. One answer is, depends. Epidural injected too early will slow the process and make necessary medical intervention. However, epidurals are given too late, when the mother has been very tired, could speed up delivery, and reduce the possibility of intervention. Try to forget for a moment about the good or bad concerning the epidural, but fill your knowledge about the risks and benefits of the drug, and learn techniques on how to deal with the painful process of birth, and then see how the way the birth of your baby.

5. The philosophy of medical personnel that you entrust the very influential
Some doctors believe that he must actively confront the birth process, and introducing medical technology surrounding the handling of the birth process, even before the requirement, as a precaution. Others, who believe that there is supposed to run a natural birth and the handling of medical interventions should be undertaken only when things begin to happen that are out of fairness. In this way, the birth process would be very influential by anyone who helps you. Talk to the medical staff who treat you about his philosophy helped birth. Make sure they are consistent with your understanding.

6. Midwife or obstetrician may not be always with you
This could be a surprising thing for many couples, but it often happens. Obstetrician or midwife that you entrusted to take care of your health content may not be always there for you. Generally, they will advise you when the content should be checked periodically and the development of pregnancy. However, in general, they probably will not be there to guide you every time. Usually, they will exist in the suffix, when the baby is almost born. Midwives typically will be with you much longer, however, it also depends. This is the reason why birth classes will be very meaningful.

7. Induced births usually end up at C-Section
Expected to make the birth process continue running and not stopped at an unrealistic pace will encourage excessive use of pitocin, which can double the likelihood must be Caesar. Use of pitocin should be continually monitored, that is, the mother should not move much during the process. However, changing the position could actually help the birth process and help overcome the pain. In essence, try to avoid induction as much as possible unless it is medically, is needed.

8. Get plenty of rest at the beginning of the process of birth can reduce the chances of cesarean birth process
When you and your doctor know that you are born in good health and good, you can try to relax and not panic when the contractions began to occur. One thing you can hold is to try to follow the rules 411. That is, only then begin the process in the delivery room during intermittent contractions for 4 minutes, each contraction lasts for 1 minute, and this has been going on for 1 hour. Discuss this with the midwife or doctor, however, prepare yourself to relax before the birth process actually begins, the point, so you’re not too fast or too fast fatigue-induced panic already exist in the delivery room and felt compelled to give birth soon.

9. Births including this physiological
Contraction is going very painful for the body and even the process was very exhausting. However, the fact is, our bodies are designed in such a way. Unlike other painful things, the birth process does not indicate a body part that is damaged or there is something wrong. There are many ways you can do to help through the process. Try to follow the classes surrounding the birth, get the support of the birth of experts, and learn about the birth process.

10. The delivery process is not about how you do it
The survey of thousands of women find that no matter whether you get an epidural injection or not that makes a birth process into a positive experience. But rather to how the mother is treated with a comfortable and respectful during a fragile moment. Women with realistic expectations tend to be happier facing the birth of her child. This means to understand whether you can control what you can control. As much as we remove the perfect conception of the birth process, the conception pelahiran imperfect will disappear with him. Most important is the mother and the baby’s healthy, right?

Friendship Limits for the Mother and her Daughter

As a mother of teenage daughters before adulthood, you are required to position itself more intelligent. When will the time be a friend or parent. The reason is, not easy to build familiarity among women. If one takes the attitude, be prepared this age difference relationship is complicated, it can even be conflicting.

Despite the intimacy between mother and friends like a child now increasingly becoming a trend, but sometimes being too familiar to make the position difficult to deal with his daughter’s mother. Hierarchy between mother and daughter are still needed for the child know when she could receive her input as a friend and when to obey his mother as a parent.

However, later the child can see the mother as a friend. A survey showed that 71 percent of women ages 21 to 54 years old considered her as a friend.

Mother needs to be done today is to balance roles as parents and friends. She also needs to be firm, hard, and discipline on his son. How can children respect their parents, influenced how the father and mother to position itself.

Hierarchical relationship between mother and child have a positive impact on respect for the privacy of every individual. You as an adult woman and also as the mother has a different personal life with your daughter. So even with your daughter, she has a friend and need to socialize with others his age to develop a personality and identity. The existence of a hierarchy allows parents and children to live the life of each.

Imagine if the mother-child relationship was too close so that all activities are always performed together.

Ways of Sharing “Quality Time” with Children

07 Nov 2010 by

Many working mothers have complained the lack of time to spend with the kids. You have to leave for work when the child was still asleep, and returned home when the child was drunk and wanted to sleep. If you have this, how can make bonding with the child?

Rather than debating how long an ideal time to spend with their children, better look for a fun and useful to accompany the child even though his time was just 30-45 minutes a day. Here’s some inspiration:

* Fostering a sense of security is important in childhood. For that, build confidence on the environment. With the view we are on the side with a smile and say hello when you wake in the morning, and said good night when escorted to the contest, he will not only be happy, but also feel welcome presence.

* Give as much as possible to touch the baby every time you are nearby. Hug, kiss, caress, caress, or a warm applause will make him feel comfortable. This also applies to children who are older at school age. Convenience is what made him feel an important part of the family. He feels loved and know that you’re still paying attention. This concept fosters confidence.

* We get up early, do any activities together. Exercising together, helping children who are in school preparing needs, or just joking fun in bed before you get ready to work.

* Convert a variety of simple activities to special events. At the end of the week, encourage your baby a bath in the backyard. This fun activity will more closely link the relationship of mother and child.

* Pause a while before reading the newspaper in the morning. This activity could always be done on your way to work. Instead, devote attention to the children at breakfast time together. Listen and respond with enthusiasm their story.

* In the preschool or school age, children begin to be happy to help parents do the household activity. Let him engage in activities you do. Contributing power in the process of preparing breakfast, for example. Maybe at first there will be chaos here and there, but that’s where he learned a lot about prudence when handling crockery, learn about the regularity of layout, harmony, and learn other things.

* You can still show affection in ways unique. As a small note tucked in his lunch bag, “Bon appetite, my dear. Mama dear brother!” This business is simple yet very meaningful for the baby because she was so noted by his mother.

* Before the child goes to school, kiss on the cheek or forehead as he said that after working mom and she’ll meet again. Taking off her children to school, say to your children to enjoy activities in the school. “It’s good fun, kid!”

* The moment of arrival at home for the child’s mother is special. Because of that, they always indicate a willingness to talk and play together. Always smile when you greet children. Give a warm hug and the same. “Hi dear, Mother really miss you!”, Or “Wait a minute yes, son. Mom should clean up first, after that we played together, okay.” Although tired after work, doing any activity that allows the joint child.

* The night before sleep is the best moment for parents to establish emotional ties are more qualified. Before entering the room of children who had slept alone, ask permission first. Sit dealing with children, or side by side. Parents can start the communication, “Son, how are you feeling today? If there’s good baseball, hopefully can help Mother.”

Brief chat like that will help parents understand child’s feelings. To lure its openness, Talk first, “Mother very happy today because this afternoon met little friend Lady.” When children want to, having a conversation until bedtime. Continue the activity by praying together, and read story books, before delivering the baby fell asleep.

What to Avoid When Communicating With Your Children

04 Nov 2010 by

Do you remember the television show Nanny Stella from Nanny 911? She is one of the nanny who has been acting for 15 years in the care of children and a nanny school graduates in their home country, England. In filling the show Nanny 911, Nanny Stella Nanny Deb works with, “If it can be seen, my differences with Nanny Deb is, he as a nanny is good and sweet, while my nanny who tend to be fierce and get families who tend to be difficult to face.” He has the nature of the firm in terms of child care. According to him, assertiveness is necessary for the child itself. One of the things that he emphasized in terms of caring for children is a matter of communication.

When communicating, there are things that we did not realize we do in children, yet they are not well done. Here are the things which, according to Nanny Stella to be avoided when communicating with children:

1. Do not make promises or threats.
Promising rewards, punishments, or threats and not keep your own words will make your child lose confidence or feel you can underestimate the meaning of your words. Worse, he could do negative things to get your attention.

2. Do not think a white lie will succeed.
Like anyone else in this world, children had the right to know the truth. So even when you make promises or plans, and the promise was not successfully met, be honest and compromised the next step (either by rearranging the schedule, or other). Children will feel disappointed when discovered early plan failed, but then will subside. At least you do not need to fear the possibility of your lies exposed, because you do not lie. Children must learn that the plan will not always run smoothly, and can be flexible.

3. Do not force it to speak when you’re angry.
You should say, “Mama can see you’re upset and angry. Mama think you should calm down yourself first. Mama is here if you already want to talk,” rather than “You’re why again?” or “What now, anyway?” If they’re angry, give him a little personal space.

4. If you do not want to hear the answer, do not ask.
“No” is a word that is very effective when used at the appropriate time and not too often said. Save the word is for extreme situations. If your kids have to go out with you, do not ask, you should make them understand. “You want to come Mama or not?” not as effective than, “We want to go Aunty’s home”.

5. Do not discourage your child.
If they feel afraid, or when they make mistakes, do not over dramatized. Do not then get angry or make your child feel inferior. Because this will reduce their confidence in you. They also will keep their distance from you to protect (protect) their own feelings.

6. Do not pretend that it will go away.
If the child violates the rules that have been agreed upon, either by a sudden whine in the supermarket, or cause an unpleasant situation, or deliberately not doing their job, face it. Do not think that it will pass.

7. Do not try to enforce discipline when you’re angry.
When you’re angry or being furious, often we will do the things we will regret later on. Calm down first, calm yourself. Once you can master the emotions, just explain the consequences to your baby.
