How to dress an infant

Every parent is concerned about how to dress a child. After all, the right thing to put on and zapelenat breast baby - it's not such a simple task, as it may seem at first glance, as to dress the baby. Young and inexperienced parents struggle with all their strength to dress their child, and the child, in turn, struggles hard and turns around with all the calf while loudly screaming. It's just impossible to force him to dress anything. Gradually every dressing for both parents and the child turns into a real torture.

Why do children do not like to dress like that? Yes, because before his birth, the baby spent 9 months in the tummy of his mother, where he was surrounded only by amniotic fluid and the walls of the uterus. There, inside, he occasionally could play with the umbilical cord or suck his finger. This tactile sensations of the child were limited. After birth, the crumbs in the work abruptly included all the skin receptors, and this strong stream of impulses created new, hitherto unknown, and therefore not very pleasant sensations.

From the above it follows that when we disguise the baby, we stimulate his tactile skin receptors, and this leads to the fact that the skin sends impulses to the central nervous system, and the child is overexcited. And the excitement for the baby is not the best condition, so it's better not to let it be nervous.

That's why your beloved crumb should be disguised as quickly as possible, considering his every move. Here are a few rules that will help to quickly and successfully dress the baby.

1. Avoid those garments that need to be worn over the head. It is much more convenient to use blouses and bodikov with a wide mouth or with buttons (buttons) on the shoulders. Very convenient are also "little men", which are completely on buttons or on snakes.

2. Before buying clothes for your baby, be sure to make it made of natural fabrics, do not constrain movements and do not have rough internal seams. (By the way, close clothing is not only uncomfortable, it also hinders the development of the baby.And for a 1-2-month-old baby all clothes should be with external seams, because the skin of the crumbs is still too tender).

3. When you turn a crumb, smile at him all the time, tenderly tell him affectionate words, say your actions. Remember: the mood of the mother is transmitted lightly to the child!
