Baby Care

When caring for a child, first and foremost, it is necessary to observe cleanliness. The child, his clothes, bedding, dishes, toys should be clean. You need to thoroughly clean the room in which the child is.

This is necessary because there are a huge number of microbes all around us – in the air that we breathe, the dust, rising from the earth, not boiled water, and all items that we use.

Many types of microbes entering the human body are the reason for different, often very severe contagious diseases. Small children are also particularly susceptible to such diseases.

Microbes can get to a body of a newborn child through the tiny abrasions on his delicate thin skin, through the mouth, with food, with a dummy, through poorly washed dishes, through a toy that a child pulls in the mouth, through laundry.

When breathing, especially when coughing and sneezing, adults and older children, around the child, along with fine drops mucus and saliva emit a large number of microbes that can cause different diseases when a child breathes. The same happens when the surrounding and even his mother kiss the child on the face or the lips.

Therefore, it is necessary to avoid dust, do not allow outsiders close to stoop over the child, breathe on the baby, and kiss him/her.

The cause of contamination can often be dirty hands. We must always remember this and not allow anyone in the family took the child to the hands, play with him, fed him, without washing hands.

Mother is the one that is always with the baby and the closest to the child. Therefore, she should be especially careful to monitor the purity of her body and clothing.

Before we get close to the child or take him on hands, the mother should wash her hands thoroughly with soap and water. Nails on the hands should be short cut. In addition, before each feeding you must wash teat with warm boiled water, to prevent the disease from breast cancer, as well as to prevent the ingress of microbes in the mouth when feeding the child.

Flies play significant role in the spread of germs. The child, taking into his mouth dirty object, can get sick by various intestinal diseases. It is therefore necessary in every possible way to deal against flies and don’t let them fly into home.
