Behavior and development

How does the baby develop?

Babies can start teething as early as 3 months or as late as 12 months, but most babies have their first new teeth (usually the lower middle teeth) by mid-4 - 7 months old. Don't worry if your baby has too much space between teeth. Teeth usually emerge from the gums at an unusual angle and these gaps usually disappear by the time the baby is 3 years old.

When your baby starts to teething, you may notice that the baby is drooling more and making strange noises from the mouth because then in the baby's mouth, many changes are happening.

By week 31, your baby will be able to:

Le Le, cow, crawl;

Pass a puzzle or object from hand to hand;

Hold another person or object to stand up.

What do you need to do to support your baby?

The reluctance of your baby to be away from your mother can be amusing, but it can also be a bit frustrating at times. If you are busy going out and having to leave your baby at home, give him a big hug before leaving the house and tell your baby that he will be back soon. Your baby will not understand that you will be back in an hour, but your love and affection can comfort and help your baby overcome difficulties until they see you again.

Also, try to make it a habit that each time you leave, you'll leave your baby with someone he knows. That way, if your baby does not have a mother or father by his side, at least he will feel satisfied with the temporary caregiver.

Health and safety

What should mom discuss with the doctor?

Most doctors will not schedule a checkup for the baby this month. On the plus side, it means no serious problems with your baby; on the negative side, you won't be able to tell how your baby is developing. Be prepared to ask questions for the next month's checkup, but don't be afraid to call your doctor right away if you have any concerns you are concerned about and can't wait until your next visit. .

Mother should know more?

Teethe

To ease your baby's discomfort with teething, have your baby chew on something, like a rubber ring or a cold towel. Your baby may also feel more relieved from eating cold foods like apple sauce or yogurt (if he's eating solids) as cold foods can temporarily numb the sore area. You can give your baby a hard, sugar-free cookie to chew on. You can also try rubbing your fingers against sore gums or applying pain gels for your baby.

Hoc

Coughing means the baby is trying to get air or cough up something that is blocking his airway. Babies may be choking if they are having trouble breathing, make unusual sounds, are gagging, coughing, or wheeze. Your baby's skin may turn red or blue and he may lose consciousness due to lack of oxygen.

When you suspect that your baby is choking, if the baby is still coughing, crying, talking and worshiping normally, then the baby's airway is not completely blocked. Babies can sometimes push the clog out on their own and the best thing you can do is stay calm and reassuring. But if the baby is panting, skin turns red to blue, seems frightened (eyes and mouth open wide) or unconscious, call 115 immediately and try to clear the baby's airway as soon as possible. after:

If (and only if) you see a choking object, remove it with your finger. If you can't see the choke, don't put your finger in the baby's mouth as you can push the blocker deep into his or her throat.

Hold your baby on his stomach on your arm, holding his chin in your hand. Keep your baby's head lower than the rest of the body.

Pat the baby's back 5 times: fast, decisively, but gently, pat the baby's shoulder blade. Remember that baby's internal organs are very weak.

If your baby starts to cough, let your baby spit on his own instead of inserting your finger into his mouth to remove it. If your baby is unable to cough up an object, carefully turn the baby over and use two or four of your fingers to press in the center of the chest and press 5 times on the baby's chest (deep 1.2-2, 5 cm).

If the foreign body still does not come out, check to see if it can be seen. Lay your baby upright, hold his tongue down with your thumb and lift his chin up and look inside his throat. If you still cannot see the foreign body, perform asphyxiation or CPR immediately. If not, repeat steps 2 and 3. Continue to do as much as you can and get your doctor's help as quickly as possible.

To prevent choking, offer age-appropriate foods (mashed or pressed foods and safe hand held foods such as teething biscuits and O-shaped cereals), supervise your baby in while eating (do not let your baby eat in a hurry or eat in a car), and always keep your baby upright when eating. Do not let your baby play with small objects, toys with small parts or objects containing baby powder. Choose the right toy for your baby - this not only helps you to choose an educational or developmental toy that is right for your baby, but also ensures safety. Choking is one of the most common causes of death in children, so you and your caregivers should attend first aid and infant resuscitation classes so that you can take care of them. This is the case.

Babies often swallow small objects (like coins) and they usually pass through the intestines without causing any harm. But if you notice that your baby is drooling too much or unable to swallow, significantly reduced appetite, or if he feels pain where something might be stuck, call your doctor or go to the emergency room right away. instantly.
