The test of teeth. The baby's first teeth. How to survive?
The baby's first teeth are the real test for a young mother.
It is necessary to be prepared in advance for this difficult stage of family life, not to rely on outside help. Young fathers (especially those with first-born children) are reluctant to help babysit. They usually get involved in the process much later, by the age of two or three, when the baby can already turn to the pope himself.
It is important for mom to know how to overcome negative emotions. Because after a week of sleepless nights, nothing pleases her, she completely gives up. I want to rudely pull the child back, shout. These are all signs of emotional burnout. How to deal with this condition? Here are some tips based on personal experience.:
- Think about the baby. How does he feel? The tension of the gums is at the limit, the pain is unbearable. Naturally, the baby cries. Empathize with the baby, mentally switch places with him. Then you will be able to respond correctly to his cry – to caress, distract, and help.
It should be noted that the lower incisors are the first to climb. They are less painful than the upper incisors. Most children have a tummy ache during teething, and their stools may be loose. Don't worry, this is due to salivation (excessive salivation), as the gums soften and prepare for the appearance of teeth.
- Remember, all this is temporary, it will pass in the same way as childbirth and colic of the baby.
- Try to distract the child. A bathroom is well suited for this purpose. Turn on the faucet and watch the water flow together. Take your baby to the mirror, smile, and make faces. Play Peek-a-boo with your child, offer him rattles (rustling, rattling, ringing). Watch educational cartoons for children together.
Don't forget to talk to your child all the time. Just because he can't speak doesn't mean he doesn't understand you.
- If nothing helps anymore, use a gel for children who are teething. Honestly, I can't even imagine how our mothers and grandmothers managed without him. Please note from what age it is allowed to use a particular drug. It contains an anesthetic that can cause an allergic reaction. Therefore, the gel should be used with caution at the first application, once a day.
- Be confident in yourself, in your decisions. Only mom knows the baby better than anyone! Only she carried him for nine months under her heart, gave birth, and did not sleep at night when the baby was worried about colic. Don't be afraid, try, experiment and everything will definitely work out. Registering on a betting platform can be confusing, especially with dozens of bonus fields and promotional offers to track.
