Question 1: What should I do if my child has low resistance?
1. Be vigilant in the disease-prone stage. Don’t be complacent about your baby’s resistance just because he hasn’t gotten sick since he was born. Don’t think that your insistence on breastfeeding can guarantee that your baby won’t get sick.
Babies under six months old have not yet reached the stage of high incidence of diseases.
Once six months passes, the baby's maternal immune globulin is completely depleted, and the high incidence of disease begins.
Breastfed babies may have relatively stronger resistance, but this varies from person to person based on their physical constitution.
Some babies may be artificially fed and rarely get sick, while others may be breastfed but often get sick.
Breast milk cannot be blamed for this.
Believe that breast milk is always the best food for babies.
There are just individual differences and different care methods.
You have to think about it, if your baby does not drink breast milk, the chance of getting sick may be higher.
The topic has gone too far.
Therefore, babies after six months need to be more vigilant than in the past for daily care.
You may not get sick in the past, but you may not get sick now, so you must not be careless.
Especially in spring and the seasons when cold and heat alternate, colds and various diseases are most likely to occur, so special attention should be paid to it mentally.
2. Dress less and cover him less. In fact, the most important way I adjusted his care after he was eight months old was to reduce his clothing and cover so that he would no longer be surrounded by a warm and sweaty environment.
In fact, it takes courage and correct judgment to reduce clothes and quilts for the baby. Girls are always worried that the baby will catch a cold.
The standard is that after removing the clothes and quilt, touch the baby's little hands. If they are warm, it means the temperature is suitable.
When you are asleep, your feet are warm, but without sweating, it is the most comfortable temperature.
The baby's own heat dissipation and perspiration functions are not perfect enough. If adults wear too many clothes, they will feel hot, sweaty and uncomfortable, but the baby will not necessarily feel hot.
He couldn't speak, so he could only stay warm like this.
If the baby wears too much clothes for a long time, and the palms of his hands are often hot, especially dry and hot, without sweating, it is not a good thing.
Before long, the baby will accumulate heat in the lungs and stomach, reduce resistance, and cause respiratory tract infections.
3. Mothers who would rather eat less than more love their babies very much. They like to see their babies eat more, and they wish they could eat all the delicacies in the world.
In fact, your baby’s digestive system is also closely related to his immune system.
If you consume too much food, your digestive system and metabolic system will be overloaded, and your kidneys and liver will be overburdened.
Soon food will accumulate into stagnant heat, which will stay in the body, hinder normal circulation, reduce resistance, and cause diseases.
It’s still the old saying: “If you want a child to be safe, you have to be hungry and cold.”
It is indeed a truth that has been passed down from generations of people raising their children.
4. Water is the source of health. As we all know, water is a good thing and can cure all diseases.
But when it comes to babies, sometimes drinking water becomes a very difficult task.
Many mothers will think that drinking water is too strenuous, so forget it if they don’t like drinking it. Anyway, drinking so much milk counts as water.
This is wrong.
The role of water is irreplaceable.
After adding complementary food, the baby must add water every day.
Slightly older babies must drink water every day because the food composition they eat is gradually approaching that of adults.
Generally, 150CC is the baby’s daily water requirement.
Of course, the best thing to drink is boiled water, but many babies may not accept boiled water at all.
If your baby doesn’t like to drink water, but he likes to drink juice.
I gave him juice mixed with water, initially at a ratio of 1:1, and then the mixture became weaker and weaker. The juice became less and less, almost close to boiled water.
Once you develop the habit of drinking water, you will actively want to drink it, and you can also drink some plain water.
Babies generally have a hot constitution and are prone to getting angry. They often drink pear water to moisten the lungs and dispel the internal heat, which can be regarded as a health care effect.
For babies who refuse to drink water, you must not follow them all the time. You must find ways to get rid of this bad habit, such as adding juice to water or feeding with a small spoon.
The baby's habits are cultivated by the parents. If he does not drink water when he is 10 months old, he will not drink water when he is one year old. When he is two or three years old, if he has not developed the habit of drinking water, it will be harmful to his health.
Very disadvantageous.
5. Take immediate measures and take care of yourself when you have signs of illness.
In fact, in many cases, when the baby has signs or symptoms of illness, if the mother can observe carefully and take effective measures in time, the illness can be avoided.
For example, your baby starts to have a runny nose.
This is obviously a sign of a cold.
If you can spot it when you first start bleeding, it will definitely be much better than finding out after a day of bleeding.
Your baby often sneezes.
In fact, babies may also sneeze when exposed to airborne dust, and they may not necessarily have a cold.
Keep an eye out for sniffles.
If not, no need to make a fuss.
If there is, even a little bit, you should pay attention to it.
Drink boiled scallions... >> Question 2: My baby is five months old and his immunity is low. What should I do? There are two situations for children who are prone to getting sick and catching colds: one is that their own resistance is weak; the other is the care and protection of their parents.
After the baby is 6 months old, the immunity given by the mother completely disappears. The baby needs to build up its own resistance, so a balanced diet and mother's care are very important.
Improving your baby's immunity can be done through diet and exercise, and does not necessarily require expensive health care.
Methods to improve resistance: First, children should not wear too much, as it is easier for them to cover themselves up and sweat. Second, open windows frequently for ventilation to keep the indoor air fresh.
