Behavior and development

How does the baby develop?

Try not to be discouraged when your children show that they prefer their parents over their mothers' parents. A baby may come to a day when suddenly he just wants his dad to read a book before going to bed instead of mom. Sometimes the reason is because the baby likes it. If the mother has put the baby to sleep well, now the father will be strange and maybe something interesting will happen. A clearer example is that a parent who travels frequently for business will often be neglected by their baby. The baby will say things like: “I miss you so much and I don't want you to go. Mom / Dad don't go anymore. ”.

For children of this age, the line between imagination and reality is very vague. This will explain why babies often lie because they really have no intention of deceiving us adults.

What do you need to do to support your baby?

If you feel discouraged when you constantly play with your child to make tea parties, build a game tower, do not feel too guilty when sometimes encouraging the baby to play alone because it also helps the baby build an independent character. Also look for activities that mothers can play with without being bored, such as cooking, gardening, outdoor play or walking together. Even mothers can let babies imitate their mothers at work by equipping them with their own desks or playing cooking.

When babies lie, they want mothers to feel happy and satisfied - even if what they say is not true. Let your baby feel not too scary when he tells the truth and that I will help you stop lying. For example, when your child denies that he or she is not drawing graffiti on the wall, calmly help him remove the graffiti and make it clear to him that the color is only used to draw on books and pens. In addition, the humor of a mother can also become an option when reacting to a lie from a baby, just play along and weave the story so that it is unreasonable and then you will realize the instability of what I just said.

Most children know how to ride a tricycle when 2 - 3 years old because this activity requires babies to be healthy and able to control their body well. Let your toddler walk in a plastic car with a low height so they can feel safe and learn how to move their feet. After that, the mother can help her baby switch to a taller car. Babies do not have to walk on two wheels at this time (Some babies can, but usually they can when they are about to be 4.)

Health and safety

What should mom discuss with the doctor?

 When children are active, playing, not to mention that they also have a curious nature about everything around, it is difficult to keep bacteria out of the reach of babies. Your baby will more likely experience stomach upset, cough, rash, vomiting or even fever. You may be too familiar with these disorders, but remember that only a real doctor can find out the real illness for your baby's symptoms.

Mother should know more?

Some children 6 months through 8 years of age will need 2 shots of the flu vaccine. After the first injection, it must be at least 28 days after the second shot and this time the mother can give the medicine to the baby by injection or spraying into the baby's nose.

Children who have had a previous flu shot still need two shots and the doctor will advise more specifically about their two shots.

Mother's concern

What are the things you need to care about?

At this time your baby's sleep will be continuous naps, so your baby will wake up more times than mom. So moms need to teach babies how to go back to sleep by themselves. Try the following ways to help your baby sleep better:

Move your baby to a large bed and praise him for his sleep in that big bed;

Imagine in advance what your child will require and prepare in the time of bed;

Please embrace your baby before sleeping more.
