How to protect the immune system of IVF after birth?
Test tube baby refers to the baby obtained through artificial fertilization or embryo transfer in the laboratory. It is very important to protect the health of its immune system after birth. The following is a detailed description from four aspects: diet, vaccination, environmental health and social interaction.
diet
Diet is one of the important factors to protect the health of IVF immune system. Breast milk is the best food choice. It contains rich antibodies and nutrients, which can enhance the immunity of infants. If breast milk cannot meet the demand, you should choose formula milk powder and choose a milk powder brand suitable for the baby's age according to the doctor's advice.
In addition, it is also very important to provide IVF with diversified and balanced complementary foods. Fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains and high-quality protein sources such as fish, meat and beans can provide rich vitamins, minerals and antioxidants and help strengthen the immune system of infants.
In addition, avoid introducing sugar and additives to infants too early, and limit the intake of fried food and high sugar drinks to reduce the negative impact on the immune system.
vaccination
Vaccination is one of the important measures to protect IVF from serious infectious diseases. Children should be vaccinated on time according to the doctor's advice, including pertussis, poliomyelitis, measles, influenza and other common diseases.
Vaccination can trigger the infant's immune system to respond and produce antibodies, thus improving the ability to resist infection. Vaccination is also conducive to controlling and preventing the spread of various infectious diseases in the IVF population.
Doctors should be consulted for accurate information on vaccination schedules and related vaccines.
Environmental Health
The immune system of IVF is fragile, and good environmental sanitation is also essential to avoid contact with bacteria and viruses.
First of all, the living area and appliances of infants should be kept clean and sanitary. Frequently clean the baby's bed, toys and clothes to reduce the possibility of germs breeding and spreading. The air quality in the home also needs attention, to maintain indoor ventilation and avoid exposure to second-hand smoke.
Secondly, develop good personal hygiene habits. Bathing babies regularly to keep their skin clean; Cut your nails and keep your fingers clean to avoid babies putting their fingers in their mouths. Reserve some baby safe disinfection supplies for disinfection of baby appliances and surfaces.
Before infants enter the social environment, pay attention to controlling the number and status of visitors and avoiding patients from contacting infants, so as to reduce infants' chances of contacting viruses and bacteria.
Social interaction
Social interaction with family members and the outside world is crucial to the development of IVF immune system. Close relatives and people in close contact can increase the chance for infants to contact various microorganisms, which is helpful to cultivate the adaptability of their immune system. However, it is necessary to ensure the health of people in close contact and avoid the spread of infectious diseases.
At the same time, gradually introduce infants into the social environment, let them contact other infants and young children of the same age, and participate in kindergartens, nurseries and other activities. While limited contact with the outside world, it is also important to avoid frequent exposure to crowded places with dirty air.
In a word, the health protection of IVF's immune system involves many aspects such as diet, vaccination, environmental health and social interaction. Through scientific and reasonable methods, the immunity of IVF babies can be improved to the greatest extent to ensure their health during their growth.
