Advice 1: For parents who spend a short time with their children, it is more necessary to make some emotional investment.
Warning 2: Mom should ensure the baby's accessories are hygienic and safe. Babies under six months should not fill their teeth, and those over six months must not have trinkets to prevent children from biting and swallowing. At a certain age, babies will naturally say goodbye to the "small towels" and "small blankets" that they have relied on since childhood.
How to get rid of fetish habit
For many parents, it is an arduous project to take out the baby's pacifier, old blanket towel and pillow. The starting point of kindness is always the baby's crying, and then it falls into the abyss of compromise. How to get rid of the baby's fetish habit? First of all, adults should not be surprised by this habit. It's normal for babies to get attached to things they get along with day and night. Don't let the baby feel that his behavior is wrong. When the baby is gradually independent, these items are crutches that provide a sense of security.
Abstinence Code 1: Avoid forced abstinence
This is a key point that Zhang school-age doctors specially warned. You can refer to the following three gradual withdrawal methods.
Carry a small piece of cloth with you
Cut the old quilt into a piece of cloth and let the baby carry it, especially for the baby who has already gone to kindergarten.
Buy another one.
Whether it is a towel, a small quilt or a small pillow, when you find that your baby is particularly attached, you might as well buy an identical thing, which is convenient for replacement and cleaning, and maintain basic hygiene and cleanliness.
Look for more alternatives
Use other things that your baby is interested in to divert attention and find more substitutes. If you like too many things, it is difficult to maintain your baby's fetish habit, and it is even more difficult to maintain a strong attachment to an item.
Tip: Improper handling can easily lead to trauma.
After proper treatment, the normal attachment behavior of the baby will not affect the normal development of personality. However, if it is not handled properly, it will leave an indelible shadow on the baby's growth, such as being forced to leave attachment. When helping the baby to overcome the fetish habit, some parents like to take tough measures, such as applying pepper to make the baby quit the pacifier, but the result is not worth the candle and is more strongly resisted by the baby. Therefore, when helping your baby get rid of attachment behavior, please pay attention to ways and means to avoid complications.
Abstinence rule 2: hold a farewell ceremony for attachment
Parents' attitudes must be consistent when helping their babies get rid of fetish habits. May wish to hold an abstinence ceremony with your baby, such as a farewell ceremony to quit nipples. Let the baby say byebye to the nipple by mouth or drawing, put the nipple away, bury it, even cremate it or throw it away, and rule out all the possibilities that will make the baby miss the nipple.
At the same time, parents may wish to reward the baby in time, or help the baby develop other interests, accompany him, encourage him to explore and discover other better and more interesting things. Or assign some small tasks to the baby to strengthen his sense of responsibility and honor, which is also very helpful to quit fetishism.
