An Infant's 1st year . What to expect for new moms
Being a new mom brings so much joys and happiness in your life . You are thrilled to hold your little one in your arms .You are eager to for the baby to grow up !! But along with the joy and excitement of new baby there comes lots of stressful situations .I am recently a new mom and my little one is about to complete his 1st year .So I would like to help out the new moms out there as what to expect from a new born . It often throws up ! The 1st time he/she will throw up after a feeding , you will be scared ! But moms the little ones often throw up after a feeding .The best way to avoid this is to burp the baby after each feeding proprly.Another thing which stresses out moms is their sleeping schedule . The baby initially will sleep every 2 hrs or so and wake up during the night too . But as the baby grows older its sleep willl reduce . The best thing for moms to do is to sleep when the baby is sleeping so that you can catch up on your sleep. Baby colic is another stressful issue for parents .When a baby is colicky it can cry continuously for hours . The best thing you can do is be patient and sooth the baby .
When baby is 6 months old doctors recommed starting solids. Till then the best food for infants is mother's milk.This will boost up your baby's immune system .The 1st time your baby falls ill is a scary time for moms and you tend to get hyper . But believe me moms this time will pass through .A baby can get upto 8 colds in an year .Try to avoid medicines for common colds.Try to keep baby comfortable by giving steam and elevatinghis head while sleeping by a pillow.
So moms all this is a part of being a new mom so have fun with your little one. You will get to enjoy his/her growing up ! Lots of things to look forward . 1st time baby will roll over , start sitting , start standing up , start walking !! So many milestones to look forward to !!
