When a child is born, parents often can't put it down, so many parents can't help but want to hold the child in their arms and are reluctant to let go.
But many parents are afraid to hold their children often, will it affect their bone development?
So, which is healthier, holding the child often or letting the child lie down often? I believe many parents should also be interested in this issue.
In fact, the difference between holding the baby often and letting the baby lie down by itself is obvious when the baby grows up. If you often hold a doll, the relationship between the child and his parents will be closer and the child's psychology will be healthier. If the baby is often left lying alone, the child will often be more sensitive and fragile, and the relationship with his parents will be relatively alienated. It can be seen from this point that it is more conducive to the growth of the baby to hold the baby often than to let the child lie down by himself.
You should know that the average sleep time of newborns has reached 20~22 hours every day, which means that children spend most of their time sleeping. Parents can't hold their children for that long when they are sleeping, so children sleep in bed most of the time.
Parents can of course hold their children when they wake up. As long as the posture of holding the child is correct, there is no harm in holding the child often, but there are many benefits.
So in the newborn stage, how can parents hug their children? The following great help is something we can't ignore:
First, it can cultivate the feelings between the baby and the treasure mother.
When a newborn is born, it can actually perceive the existence of its mother.
In the delivery room, when the baby is crying, as long as it is placed in front of the mother, it will stop crying slowly, and even some babies will take the initiative to give their mothers some hugs.
With the development of the day after tomorrow, the baby will gradually remember some obvious features of Ma Bao, such as Ma Bao's hairstyle, the outline of Ma Bao and the smell of Ma Bao. He will be more dependent on his mother.
In the mother's arms, the baby will get a great sense of satisfaction and security, because the mother's smell is familiar to the child, which will make the child feel that he has returned to the womb. This kind of satisfaction and security can't be given by others. If the mother can hold the child all the time, it can better cultivate the feelings between the baby and the treasure mother, make the baby more willing to be close to the mother, and also make the child's personality more positive and sunny when he grows up.
In the process of holding a baby, it can also stimulate maternal love and make the relationship between mother and child closer.
Second, it can effectively exercise children's eyesight.
If Ma Bao knew about parenting, she would know that when children were born, their eyesight was almost zero. At this time, the child can't see anything clearly, and he perceives his mother entirely by his familiarity with his mother's smell.
If you let your baby lie in bed or in a stroller every day, then your baby will only see the ceiling in front of him, and the color is monotonous and not irritating. A mother holding her baby in her arms can broaden her vision and let her see more things and colors, which is also of great help to her vision development.
Third, exercise your baby's hands and feet.
The third better thing is that hugging the baby can also make the baby move.
I don't know if Dad Bao and Ma Bao have found that every time they pick up the baby, the baby will always dance happily, which can actually exercise the baby's hands and feet.
The baby has slept for a long time, and his limbs need exercise. Holding the baby can make the baby move within the sight of mom and dad. However, many novice parents are afraid that they may hurt their children if they are not careful, so they are basically afraid to hold their babies.
But in fact, in the process of holding the baby, you can also exercise the muscle strength of the baby's back and promote the baby's bone development. As long as parents hold their babies in the right way, there are not only no disadvantages, but also many benefits.
The correct posture of holding a child is to let the child lie on the parents' arms and put the child's head, neck and back in a straight line, so as not to bend the child's neck and avoid crushing the back nerves. When holding a child, the technique should be gentle, and it will be skilled after several hugs, and the baby actually likes the feeling of being held and feels more secure.
Parents love their children in the same way. Although most parents love their children, they are afraid that they may spoil their children by holding them often, such as not sleeping, hugging and crying. In fact, in the newborn stage, we should hug the baby more when it is awake, which can exercise the baby's body and is conducive to the baby's development!
