Care for the baby means two directions. The first is a necessary creation of the optimum environment for accommodation of the kid, the second – direct daily ensuring needs of the little person. Only having adapted to the newborn, you will be able to help him to adjust the requirements on a certain rhythm.
Instruction
1. In the first month of life of the newborn try "to plunge" into the kid completely. Ask relatives to help you that you could not be distracted neither by the coming guests, nor by a household. In it at first you need to understand needs of the child, to learn to satisfy them. At this stage you with it study interaction with each other. A condition of mother and baby are very interdependent: if one feels discomfort, then and to another is badly too.
2. Food is the most important need of the kid. Make so that during feeding of the baby you remained with it alone. This rule in its first weeks of life is especially relevant. Duration of feeding will be determined by the child. However many there was a baby at a breast, it is not necessary to take away it until the kid himself releases a breast from a mouth. Very often the newborn can fall asleep in a few minutes after the beginning of feeding. You should not worry about it. Having a little dozed, the kid will start over again sucking.
3. When the baby begins to cry, he for the present and itself does not know what he wants that it is necessary for it. Feeling discomfort, he reports about it to you. What exactly caused discomfort, the kid will learn to understand later. Mom's task in response to its crying to offer the baby milk, to give it a toy, to replace a diaper or to cover with a warm blanket. Thus the kid will be able to learn to be guided in own requirements and to be adjusted on a certain mode. Remember that the child is put to a breast not only to eat. The newborn gets rid of any discomfort by means of sucking since for the present does not know other ways.
4. Never you awake the sleeping baby in order that to feed him or to change clothes. The healthy kid himself knows when it is time for it to be awake, sleep or eat. The parental intuition and knowledge of how to treat the baby as to calm him when to feed, are put by the nature in the woman. Be attentive to needs of the baby, learn to understand him, adjust feeding. After that time of the mode which the child with your help will set will come.
