Nursing care and precautions of test tube babies after success
IVF refers to assisted reproduction through in vitro fertilization technology, so that couples who cannot conceive naturally can successfully conceive and give birth to healthy babies. Once IVF is successful, newborn care and precautions become particularly important. The following will elaborate on nutrition, warmth, hygiene and mental health.
1. Nutrition
The success of IVF cannot be separated from scientific and reasonable diet and nutrition. Therefore, once the baby is born, the correct feeding mode is very important.
First, breastfeeding is the best choice. Breast milk is rich in nutrients, which can provide the protein, fat, vitamins, etc. needed by the baby, and can also enhance the baby's immunity. Mothers need to maintain good eating habits and mood to ensure adequate breast milk secretion.
If breast milk is insufficient or cannot be fed, infant formula can be selected. When selecting the milk powder, pay attention to selecting the milk powder that meets the baby's age and needs, and follow the guidance of the doctor or nurse to carry out the correct formula and feeding method.
Whether breast-feeding or milk powder feeding, it is necessary to pay attention to the baby's food intake and frequency, and adjust the feeding plan according to the baby's needs. In addition, we should observe the baby's sucking action and reaction in time to avoid the occurrence of accidents such as suffocation during feeding.
2. Keep warm
Newborns have weak thermoregulation and are easy to get cold, so it is very important to keep the baby warm.
In cold seasons or air-conditioned environments, you can use insulation products such as closed baby jumpers and quilts to keep your baby warm. At the same time, pay attention to the indoor temperature, maintain a suitable room temperature, and avoid overheating or supercooling.
When bathing, choose the right time and water temperature, not too hot or too cold. Before and after bathing, dry the baby's whole body quickly. Use clean soft towels or absorbent wipes to prevent the baby from catching cold.
3. Hygiene
Because the newborn's immune system is not fully developed, and the ability to resist bacteria is weak, it is very important to keep the baby clean.
First, pay attention to the baby's washing and changing. Keep your baby's clothes and diapers clean, clean and disinfect them regularly, and try to avoid using detergent with too many chemical residues. The bath water shall be warm water, and an appropriate amount of baby washing liquid shall be added on the premise of ensuring cleanness.
Secondly, pay attention to the circulation and freshness of indoor air. Avoid the baby from being exposed to the closed space for a long time, open the window regularly for ventilation, keep the humidity of the indoor air appropriate, and avoid being too dry or wet.
In addition, the baby's toys and appliances should also be kept clean. Regularly clean and disinfect the toys, baby bottles and other appliances that the baby often contacts to ensure that the baby has access to clean and sanitary items.
4. Mental health
The birth of test tube babies is often accompanied by the expectations and efforts of both spouses. Therefore, the psychological health of babies after birth also needs attention.
First of all, family members should give full care and companionship to the baby, create a good family atmosphere, and establish a stable and harmonious parent-child relationship. The family should communicate with the baby more, speak softly and warmly, and treat the baby's needs and feelings with love and patience.
In addition, attention should be paid to avoiding excessive dependence and indulgence of the baby. The baby needs to gradually learn to be independent and independent, and the family should guide the baby to develop good living habits and behavior norms from an early age.
Finally, family members should support and understand each other, jointly cope with difficulties and challenges in the process of childcare, pay attention to communication and joint planning between husband and wife, and maintain mental health.
summary
The birth of test tube baby is a dream for both husband and wife, and it also needs special care and attention. After the baby is born, nutrition, warmth, hygiene and mental health are aspects that need special attention. Following scientific feeding methods, maintaining appropriate indoor and outdoor temperatures, paying attention to the baby's health habits and air environment, and giving the baby sufficient care and companionship are important factors to ensure the healthy growth of test tube babies.
