How to carry out 40 day care for test tube babies?
IVF is a major breakthrough in modern medicine. Many couples have realized their dreams of pregnancy and becoming parents through IVF technology. After IVF successfully conceives, infant care is very important. The following are the nursing suggestions for test tube babies within 40 days after birth.
1. Nutrition intake
For test tube babies, correct nutrition intake is essential for healthy growth. Infants need additional nutrition before and in the early stages after birth. During the 40 day care period, breast feeding is the best choice, because breast milk is the most suitable nutrition for infants. If breast milk is insufficient or unable to feed breast milk, you can choose suitable infant formula under the guidance of a doctor.
During the feeding process, it is necessary to ensure that the feeding time and amount of the baby can meet its growth needs, but it is also necessary to avoid overfeeding. Special bottles and nipples can be used in feeding to ensure that babies can easily eat and avoid swallowing air.
In addition, in order to ensure that IVF infants get enough vitamins and minerals, appropriate supplements can be given according to the doctor's recommendations.
2. Sleep and rest
In the early stage of IVF, sleep and rest are essential for healthy growth. The baby needs enough sleep during the 40 day care period. Generally speaking, newborns need 16-18 hours of sleep every day.
In order to help IVF babies establish good sleep habits, a quiet, warm and comfortable sleep environment can be created. Try to avoid irritating sound and strong light, and ensure that the temperature of the room is appropriate. When placing babies to sleep, take safety measures, such as placing them in a safe sleeping bag.
If IVF babies wake up at night, they can be comforted briefly, but try to avoid excessive dependence, so as to help them gradually establish the ability to fall asleep independently.
3. Regular physical examination
IVF babies need regular physical examination after birth to monitor their growth and development. During the 40 day care period, every baby should have regular physical examination as recommended by the doctor.
These physical examinations include measuring the height, weight and head circumference of the baby, and checking whether the function and development of organs are normal. The doctor will also pay attention to the baby's diet and sleep, and provide corresponding guidance and advice.
Regular physical examination can not only discover and deal with any existing health problems in a timely manner, but also ensure that IVF babies receive comprehensive health attention and care.
4. Psychological and emotional support
The care of IVF babies involves not only physiological needs, but also psychological and emotional support. As the parents of test tube babies, we should give them warm care and love.
The parent-child relationship and emotional connection can be established through close contact, touching and speaking with the baby. Parent child interaction can not only promote the emotional development of infants, but also help them build a sense of security and trust.
In addition, parents of IVF babies may face various pressures and emotional fluctuations. In this period, seeking professional psychological support and family interaction with other families experiencing similar situations can provide emotional support and help.
summary
IVF babies need special care in the first 40 days after birth. Correct nutrition intake, sufficient sleep and rest, regular physical examination and psychological and emotional support are the key to ensure the healthy growth of IVF. By giving IVF babies comprehensive care and care, they can successfully go through the early stage and achieve healthy growth.
