No flowers when visiting pregnant women.
1, bad for baby's eyes:
The bright colors of flowers will irritate the eyes of newborns and affect their eyesight. Newborns should first be exposed to some soft light from the outside, and then the contact color will gradually change from weak to strong.
2, make the baby allergic:
Some newborns are allergic and have weak resistance. Flowers can easily shock allergic babies because of pollen allergy, and may even lead to death if they are not rescued in time.
Therefore, it is better, more affordable and safer to visit the parturient and the newborn and give some gifts such as fruit nutrition.
Visiting pregnant women and giving gifts.
bedding
Give your baby a set of clothes or a set of bedding, which can be used repeatedly and will remind you of your friendship every time you see it. However, it should be noted that when the baby is born, the mother has basically prepared all the clothes, so it is best to send a larger size clothes.
For example, babies born in summer can be given winter clothes, or summer clothes after 1 year old. If you are afraid that the choice is not suitable, you can put the shopping receipt together in the clothes packaging and let your mother change it into the right size.
Others, such as summer cool blanket, small blanket, small thin quilt, etc. , are also very practical good things. The size and thickness also depend on the weather. It is recommended to choose light color and less printing.
diaper
This should be my mother's favorite, but generally a certain brand will be used regularly and will not be changed at will. Before buying, you can call your mother and ask which brand the baby uses.
The other is a model. Many people like to send small diapers, which is very intimate? Look at it. I bought the NB size specially. In fact, mothers are full of black lines, because NB-sized homes have already stocked several boxes, okay?
The baby grows very fast, and within a month, the newborn's body shape is not suitable at all. If the baby is a giant, there is absolutely no need to use size NB, so I suggest buying size M or L, which may be too big, but you can keep it and use it slowly.
? That diaper is consumed faster than eating! Now whoever gives me some bags is happier than giving me bags! ? This is the experience of my mother who just took maternity leave last week.
milk powder
Like diapers, mothers will have a relatively fixed brand. Changing the brand of milk powder frequently will cause the baby to get angry and indigestion, so if you don't know what brand of milk powder the baby drinks, don't give it easily. Moreover, breastfeeding is now advocated, and the consumption of milk powder is not large. If you buy milk powder, you should communicate with your mother in advance.
toy
It seems that there are few people visiting newborns to give toys, because everyone thinks that toys need to be used when they reach a certain age. In fact, there are many toys that are beneficial to early education, such as bed bells, soothing toys and baby fitness equipment. These are all good choices.
Remember, you must choose big brands, choose materials that are harmless to your baby, and don't buy unqualified toys for cheap.
Feeding supplies
The benefits of these gifts can only be realized by people who have been mothers, such as complementary food training tableware or cooking machine and grinding bowls. They are used for several months after birth and can be used until the baby is one year old or older. Others, such as warm milk or disinfection tools, look unremarkable, but they are easy to use and can free novice mothers from the hectic schedule. The mother who receives these gifts will introduce you as a confidant and hope to entrust herself to you!
Matters needing attention in visiting pregnant women
Telephone communication before visiting the parturient.
No matter whether you go to the hospital or visit at home, you should first know whether the object of your visit is acceptable at present. You can call your family first, so as to determine the visiting time, gifts to bring when visiting and the scale of conversation.
Don't visit the parturient too early
In addition to family members, relatives and friends should not visit mothers and babies too early. The parturient needs rest to recover her strength. After giving birth to a baby 1-2 weeks, it is best for relatives and friends not to visit. If they do this, the time should not exceed half an hour, and the pregnant women should be given as much rest time as possible. Generally speaking, relatives and friends are not recommended to visit the hospital.
Don't visit the parturient too much
Although the immunity acquired in the mother can make the newborn successfully resist the invasion of external bacteria within 6 months, the microorganisms in the adult respiratory tract may become the pathogenic bacteria of the newborn if they visit too much.
The living environment of newborns should be quiet and comfortable, with fresh air and far away from the source of infection.
In addition, too many visits will bring fatigue to the parturient, poor rest and less milk secretion, which will bring difficulties to breastfeeding.
It is not advisable to visit pregnant women when suffering from these diseases.
If relatives and friends themselves suffer from chronic diseases or some infectious diseases, or during a cold, it is best not to visit the mother and newborn, which is very likely to cause cross-infection. Mothers and family members should also politely refuse, for the sake of maternal and child health, I believe they will also be understood by relatives and friends.
Pay attention to hygiene when visiting parturient.
