Nowadays, parents should not give their children such rustic nicknames, but like previous people, many people now think that the heavier the child, the better, which is actually a serious mistake.
The heavier the newborn, the better? Doctor: It's better to be between these two numbers. The heavier a baby is at birth, the better. Most people used to think so, but this is not a scientific view. I remember my cousin gave birth to a child last year, and my nephew weighed 8 kg and 3 liang. My family is very happy. I think the child must be strong and easy to support.
As a result, the obstetrician immediately came to throw cold water on it. He said that his cousin's child weighs more than 8 kg and already belongs to the category of "overweight baby". She is not better than ordinary children, but has to worry about potential health hazards.
Hearing the doctor say this, the whole family was dumbfounded. Cousin eagerly asked the doctor, is it serious? Later, the doctor told her that it seems that the situation is not serious at present. As long as you don't feed the baby to death in the future, it's okay to feed the baby too fat.
Finally, the doctor told her that the birth weight of a newborn is normal as long as it is between 5 and 8 kg. There is no good or bad in this range. Beyond this range, you need to worry about your baby's health.
As obstetricians said, the birth weight of most full-term newborns does fall within the range of 5-8 kg, and only a few are less than 5 kg or more than 8 kg. In both cases, there are health risks.
Different birth weights indicate that the baby's different health conditions are less than 5 kg, and the baby may be stunted. If it is not premature, it means that the development is severely retarded, which may be related to congenital diseases, or may be related to the physical condition and nutritional intake of pregnant mothers.
There is a high probability that such a baby will die after birth. Even if it is lucky enough to be raised, its later development will be seriously delayed, which requires more attention from parents.
5-8 kg is normal, and the best birth weight is between 5-8 kg, which is a normal healthy newborn. Don't worry about their health.
As long as parents feed according to the normal mode, the baby can develop well. Moreover, for newborns with birth weight in this range, the later development will not have much to do with birth weight, that is to say, even if it is close to 5 kg, there is no need to worry about the child growing short in the future.
It's not good to weigh more than 8 kg, not only difficult to give birth, but also face serious health problems in the later stage. A birth weight of more than 8 kg indicates a huge health risk, rather than being "blessed" as people think. This kind of baby is likely to suffer from three highs in childhood, and the risk of leukemia is more than 20% higher than that of ordinary newborns.
Not only that, babies weighing more than 8 kilograms can also cause difficulties in childbirth, which makes many women have to choose caesarean section.
Overweight babies deserve more attention than underweight newborns. Because on the one hand, many treasure mothers will ignore their potential health risks, on the other hand, the factors that lead to overweight babies will continue to exist after childbirth.
Besides heredity, overweight babies are mainly related to the diet of pregnant mothers. Tall parents are more likely to give birth to overweight babies. Overweight babies have something to do with heredity. If parents have a large birth weight or a large figure, then the probability of the baby being overweight is relatively high.
In addition, some congenital genetic diseases may also lead to excessive birth weight of babies. Therefore, pregnant mothers with this situation should do a good job of prenatal examination and make adjustments according to the doctor's instructions during pregnancy.
Eating too much during pregnancy, the baby is likely to be overweight, which is only a small part. More "overweight" cases are related to improper diet of pregnant mothers during pregnancy.
For example, eating too much high-calorie and high-fat food during pregnancy will lead to excessive nutrition in the fetus and excessive birth weight. In severe cases, it will become an "overweight baby".
Even more frightening, this situation usually does not stop with the end of childbirth. Ma Bao, who is breastfeeding, is likely to continue her original eating habits, which will lead to the overweight baby's weight becoming more and more exaggerated, and some potential health hazards will be stimulated or even erupted in advance.
A healthy weight is the most worth pursuing, both for adults and newborns. If you want to "lose weight" or "gain weight" for the newborn, you can only rely on the pregnant mother herself.
Therefore, I hope that every pregnant woman can arrange her diet reasonably during pregnancy, manage her mouth, and don't expose her baby to health risks because she mistakenly believes in the so-called folk remedies or is greedy for instant food.
Otherwise, it will not only make you regret for a lifetime, but also ruin your baby's life.
