They don't know whether the process of growing up is regular or not, let alone what the older generation often says about "sleeping in January, crying in February and saving stomach in March".

To be honest, the lazy mother didn't know anything about her baby when she was young. She didn't know how to take care of the baby. When she opened the diaper for the first time, the baby had just passed the stool. Because she didn't know how to clean it up, she simply silently restored the diaper to its original position. At that time, she didn't understand why the baby always urinated and defecated, why the baby was always sleeping, and why she was "sleeping in January, crying in February, and saving her belly in March", Never heard of it.

What does it mean to "sleep in January, cry in February and save your belly in March"?

⏩ Sleep in January

Sleeping in a month means that a baby born one month is sleeping most of the time.

In fact, the sleep of the fetus has been more regular since the third trimester, and the daily sleep time is also relatively long, accounting for about 90% of the time.

In addition, the baby will also have a relatively stable sleep cycle. Generally, it can sleep for about 30~40 minutes each time, and wake up for about 5~15 minutes. After that, it may continue to sleep or play by itself.

When the baby is about to be born, the baby still needs a lot of sleep time to promote the development of the body. At this time, the baby will spend about 85%~90 hours sleeping.

After the baby is born, he still keeps his original sleep habits, including sleep cycle and sleep duration.

The baby who is one month old sleeps about 20 to 22 hours a day. Apart from eating and defecating, the baby does not spend much time awake every day.

That's why I said "sleep in January"!

Of course, even babies born two or three months still need a lot of sleep time, about 16 to 20 hours.

At the same time, in addition to sleeping, in the first month of life, the baby will have two or three times of violence. As long as the milk volume is sufficient, the baby's height and weight will rise very quickly.

In this month, the baby will also change from unconscious laughter to conscious but silent laughter.

And the baby's movement, vision, hearing, smell, touch and character are also developing at the same time.

For the baby sleeping, parents need to pay attention to:

① When the baby is just put on the bed, you can let the baby lie on its side for a while, but you should sleep mainly in a supine position, or turn the baby's head to one side to prevent the baby from choking milk.

② The baby does not need to deliberately darken the environment when sleeping in the daytime, and does not need to deliberately lower the voice. When sleeping at night, turn off the lights as much as possible. If necessary, use the night light to avoid confusion between day and night.

③ If the baby sleeps for more than 4 hours, wake up the baby for feeding to prevent the baby from sleeping because of hypoglycemia.

At ordinary times, parents can interact with the baby more (but avoid activities that will make the baby too excited), which can promote the development of the baby's abilities in all aspects.

⏩ Cry in February

The two month old baby no longer just sleeps blindly, and many skills will awaken.

The baby will open his eyes and observe everywhere, looking at the people and things he likes steadily. The baby will also take the initiative to tease others, like others to chat with him, and will also laugh at others

In addition, the baby's temper has also grown. When the baby is hungry, urinates and urinates, the baby will cry, and many novice parents will be more at a loss at this time.

However, due to the baby's physiological characteristics, the reason why the baby cries most at this time is flatulence or colic.

When the baby has flatulence or colic, the baby will have a bulging stomach, often fart, vomit milk, cry, and can't sleep well.

At this time, parents should help the baby to relieve abdominal discomfort:

① You can massage your baby's abdomen. Before massage, you can wash your hands with hot water, or rub your hands with hot water. Then pour the moisturizer on your palms and apply some to your baby's abdomen for clockwise massage for about 10 minutes.

② In addition to massaging the baby, parents can also do exhaust exercises for the baby so that the baby can sleep on the stomach or be held in an airplane. If the baby has colic, they can properly apply hot compress to the baby's belly, and usually pay attention to the heat preservation of the baby's belly.

③ When feeding the baby, pay attention to avoid breathing too much gas, for example, when the baby is crying badly, for example, the size of the pacifier is inappropriate, or the feeding posture is incorrect.

④ Don't let the baby eat too much. Remember to burp or hold the baby upright for 20-30 minutes after the baby has eaten the milk.

Speaking of burping, some moms struggle about when it is appropriate to take burping.

The American Academy of Pediatrics Pediatrics Pediatrics Pediatrics Pediatrics Pediatrics Encyclopedia wrote: When a formula fed baby eats 60~90ml of milk, the mother should give him a burp. If breast feeding is carried out, the mother can give the baby a burp while changing the other side of the milk.

Of course, the baby's crying is not entirely due to flatulence or colic. You should know that the baby will cry when it is fierce for a long time, and will cry when it is uncomfortable, which requires more observation from parents.

⏩ Accumulate belly in March

In fact, this is not a rare thing, but many novice parents do not know what is going on.

When the baby is a little older, the gastrointestinal function will become stronger, and the absorption capacity of the formula will become better. The baby will have belly accumulation.

We can understand that because the baby's digestive ability is stronger, and the food he eats in his stomach is less "garbage", he can only save more for a few days, so that a certain amount of feces can stimulate his defecation.

During the waiting days, the baby will not defecate. As for the waiting days, it will change according to the baby's situation, which may be three or five days, or ten or eight days.

However, belly saving does not necessarily occur when the baby is three months old. In fact, many babies begin to accumulate belly after the full moon, and some babies even accumulate belly when they are five or six months old.

It is a normal phenomenon to accumulate belly. During this period, except that the baby does not defecate, the baby's diet, sleep and other aspects have not changed, so parents need not worry.

However, parents need to distinguish between baby's belly saving and more similar constipation.

① Baby's belly

As I said just now, when the baby is saving his belly, his mental state, diet and sleep are the same as usual. The baby's belly is also loose and soft. After a few days, the baby's stool will change from mushy to soft and shaped.

② The baby is constipated

The baby is constipated because of the body or lack of water, and the stool is relatively dry, so it will be very painful when defecating. Some babies will make a noise when defecating, and their small faces will become red and even cry. The baby's belly is hard, and he will not sleep well or twist his body because of his uncomfortable stomach.

In general, if the baby has not defecated for several days, but there is no change in all aspects of the baby, everything is normal, generally it is to save the belly, just let it be.

If the baby doesn't defecate for several days, but he will cry and don't like defecation, especially when he is defecating, the baby still can't sleep well and is restless, mostly because of constipation. He should drink more water for the baby and rub his abdomen more to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and help the baby to discharge the stool.
