Activities that IVF can participate in later stage
IVF refers to the process of culturing the fertilized egg to a certain stage of development through in vitro fertilization technology, and then implanting it into the female uterus, so that the embryo can develop into a baby. Although IVF babies need some extra attention and care after birth, it does not mean that they cannot participate in normal infant activities. The following will introduce the activities that IVF can participate in later stage from four aspects: physical exercise, parent-child games, social activities and art training.
physical exercise
Physical exercise is crucial to the growth and development of infants, including test tube babies. Doctors usually recommend that infants can take physical exercise in the following ways when their head and neck can remain stable:
1. Sleeping on the stomach: Lay the baby on the bed, and gradually change it from lying on the back to sleeping on the stomach. This will help to exercise the baby's neck muscles and encourage them to look up and explore their surroundings.
2. Roll over: When infants can coordinate their hands and feet, gradually guide them to learn to roll over. This can exercise their muscle control ability and cultivate their ability to act independently.
3. Push ups: When babies can raise their heads, they can hold their bodies with their hands and let them try to do some small push ups. This helps strengthen the baby's arms and back muscles.
Parent-child game
Parent child play is an important way to strengthen the emotional communication between parents and infants, and also an effective way to help infants develop cognitive and motor skills. Like naturally pregnant babies, test tube babies can participate in various parent-child games with their parents, such as:
1. Cradle music: IVF babies also like listening to music, so they can choose some soft lullabies to listen to. Parents can gently shake the baby's body to match the rhythm of music and enhance the interaction between parents and children.
2. Finger games: IVF babies' finger flexibility gradually increases. When appropriate, they can play finger games with their parents, such as holding up their fingers for counting games or using their fingers to make various interesting shapes.
3. Rap nursery rhymes: parents can sing nursery rhymes for IVF, and they can also try to sing some simple rap nursery rhymes. This can develop the baby's hearing, language and expression ability.
social affair
It is also very important for IVF babies to participate in social activities, which will help them expand their social circle and meet new friends. The following are some social activities that IVF can participate in:
1. Parent child group courses: hospitals or communities often hold some group courses for infants and parents, such as parent-child swimming, music and painting courses. IVF can participate with other babies, interact with parents and increase social experience.
2. Parent group gatherings: IVF parents can organize gatherings through social networks or other ways to interact and communicate with other IVF families. In this way, we can share parenting experience with each other and increase support and understanding.
3. Baby playroom: some baby playrooms provide safe environment and rich children's toys, where IVF can play with other babies to enhance emotional communication and social skills.
Art training
Art training helps infants develop their thinking and perception abilities. IVF babies can participate in some age appropriate art activities, such as:
1. Painting courses: infants can try non-toxic and harmless finger painting in the family environment, or they can participate in art courses to cultivate their creativity and artistic talent through the use of graffiti and color.
2. Imitative performance: IVF can cultivate their expression and imitation ability by watching the performance of family members or participating in some drama and music activities.
3. Music listening: IVF babies like listening to music, which can provide them with various styles of music and cultivate their perception and appreciation of music.
Summary:
After birth, IVF babies can participate in various activities just like naturally pregnant babies. Physical exercise is helpful to the development of infants and the improvement of their sports ability; Parent child games can enhance the emotional communication and cognitive ability between parents and children; Participation in social activities can expand the baby's social circle and friendship; Art training helps infants develop their thinking and perception abilities. IVF families should encourage them to actively participate in various age appropriate activities to promote their overall growth and development.
