Be already your first son or not, the arrival of a newborn baby to the life of a mother, it opens a new chapter in his life. And of this you are entirely conscious. Both will be recognized através of the caresses, the voice, the breast.

It can be that sometimes it distresses you not to be able to understand the motive of his crying, or think that you are not right in it. The mother's instinct will guide you to be able to recognize the needs of your new-born baby. Do not falter, trust in your aptitude to take care and to love your baby. It is true that the new-born baby needs of special care. In this space we want to help you to that you know the basic care of the newborn baby. The information, more your instinct and love, they will form a perfect society to raise your baby.

Some of the topics that we will treat they will be:
The screening studies or tamizaje that are carried out the newborn baby at his first hours of life; the feeding of the newborn baby, as well as the hygiene and the first bath. We will not leave aside the questions as the sleep (how, how much and where it is convenient that the newborn baby sleeps); the stimulation and the colics. The crying and the visits to the pediatrician, the symptoms of alarm that will help you to consult in the suitable moment and many topics more that like mom we are interested in.

The arrival of the new member to the hearth

After the childbearing, the days that you have been in the hospital served to you there recovered little big effort that a son implies bringing to the world. Also, there they will have advised you on some basic things in the care of the newborn baby; and also there have been your first and unforgettable hours of contact and mutual recognition with your baby. But now, already in your house, without the protective environment of the hospital, it is very probable that you some doubts arise.

To adapt itself to the new life that waits for them is not small thing. A newborn baby needs of all your time and energy. That's why it is fundamental that you are strong; that you feed correctly, the line stops for the time being worrying about recovering. To nurse needs of an extra calories quantity; also, possibly be a little anemic, due to the normal losses of the childbearing. It is necessary that you take advice from a specialist and I charted a special diet to you for moms who nurse. Do not do miraculous magazines diets. It is not a myth that to nurse slims.

If you are in couple, the presence of the dad is fundamental, so much for the baby, as for you.
He shares the upbringing with your couple, delegates responsibilities. For your son, the contact with his dad, will give him safety. He recognizes the voice of his parents from the maternal belly.
A new-born baby, sleeps almost the whole day, but in short spaces. That's why it is very difficult to sleep many followed hours.

Of course the pediatrician indicates you feeding to demand. This means that the first months of life, you will have to feed it whenever I needed it. You will have to have patience great, every baby is a world. There are newborn babies, who a week of being in his house, already sleep 4 followed hours. On the other hand, there are others that there finds it hard to them more time to do longer pulls. If it is a myth that the baby remains with famine why your milk is watery and does not feed. The maternal milk always feeds. What can happen, is that it digests it more rapid, or that he falls asleep and does not suck strongly. If this is the case, if he fell asleep before spending it to another breast, he tries to wake up it.

If you do not achieve it, it does not matter. Of course he will wake up with famine in more short time.
The topic is that you are sure that your milk feeds it perfectly. Why if you begin with supplements, will not your baby already suck with so much force, then, if it can happen that it reduces the milk production. The more put it to the breast, the more milk you will produce.

I suppose that you will be thinking: "It is very easy to write it, but to do it is another topic”.
I say it to you from my mom's experience of 4 children, whom I nursed for the others. Not only it is the best food for your son, if not that is the only and unrepeatable experience. Between feeding, changing, bathing to make to sleep to your new-born baby, the day passes flying. The first months are exhausting and wonderful.

He tries to sleep in the schedules in which your baby sleeps. Perhaps do not be used to sleeping in the daytime, but everything is learned. Especially, he thinks that your baby needs you informs. To himself that look after for you and for him. As soon as the pediatrician you of permission, big sack to your baby to be walked. It is very good to accustom them from newborn babies to the routine of the daily walk. They love, and it calms them.

The routines are very important for the new-born babies. Since it arranges them, and gives them safety. It is advisable always to bathe the baby at the same hour. In general, it is good to bathe it when the day ends. This is a schedule where the babies generally become nervous. The bath will calm it, and will predispose to the sleep.

Along this space we will keep on speaking about these topics, since there is so much to learn, but I repeat to you what I always say: You are the best mom for your son. And you know perfectly that to do. We, from here, accompany you from the written word, as well as your beings wanted with his presence accompany you.

 And he remembers that if you want to communicate with me, you can send to me a mail, which with all taste I will answer to the briefness. A lot of congratulations, and enjoy very much this moment that the life gave you!
