Now the baby's legs are stronger. If the mother holds the baby's armpit with both hands, the baby can stand for a while. Babies are spoiled and always raise their arms for adults to hug, but for strangers, babies will feel anxious and afraid. The baby has more and more ideas of his own. When he is left out or his wishes are not satisfied, he will yell at you! The baby's desire to catch things is getting stronger and stronger. He must grasp the necklace and scarf around his mother's neck, his father's tie and glasses with his little hand.

Special attention this week-babies eat their hands
From 2 months, the baby will eat his little hands and feet with relish. At three or four months, the baby will put anything he can catch in his mouth. Many parents are worried about their children's behavior, and worry that their children may eat dirty things, causing diarrhea and lead poisoning, and developing the bad habit of eating their hands.
In fact, it is a necessary stage for babies to eat their hands. A baby of two or three months will start chewing his little hands and feet in his mouth, indicating that his limb innervation has matured. When the baby is four or five months old and can reach for something, he will put all kinds of things in his mouth to taste. In fact, this kind of tasting behavior is a kind of learning. The baby can tell the difference between various items through the feeling of the mouth, and then have an understanding of the items. This is a good start for the baby to know the world, and it also promotes the coordination ability of the baby's hands and eyes.
Therefore, when the baby eats his hands, parents don't have to worry too much, just pay attention to the following points:
Clean up the baby's little hands and toys that he can touch in time.
Provide safe and hygienic articles and toys for children. If it is not easy to fade, do not have sharp corners, etc. To prevent infant lead poisoning or other injuries. In particular, don't let children touch small items such as buttons and beans to prevent children from accidentally inhaling the trachea and causing accidents.
In order to prevent children from eating their hands when they grow up, please don't let them eat their hands while sleeping, pay more attention to communication with their babies, and prevent children from comforting themselves with eating their hands because of lack of caress.
Feeding tips this week
Some babies will go through a "physiological period of breast fatigue", stop drinking water when breastfeeding, make various voices "protest", and even rarely or not breastfeed. But the baby's development and vitality are very good, and the mother doesn't have to worry. Under normal circumstances, it will recover naturally in about a month.
If your baby is still in the lactation period, please don't force him to eat or change the brand of formula milk frequently because his growth and development are affected. This may make the baby resist the pressure and fear of eating, so the problem is not just aversion to breastfeeding.
