Holding a baby is also a technical job. What is the correct posture for holding a baby?

Looking at the baby's soft body, as a novice parent, have you ever wondered what posture to hold the baby in? The wrong hug will put the baby in danger. If you don't hug the baby for a long time, it may make novice parents suffer from tenosynovitis. Today, I will talk to you about the baby's posture in different months, so that the baby and parents are comfortable.

Babies in different months have different hugs. In the newborn period, you should hold the baby in your arms. Because the baby is weak, the small neck can't stand up. The baby's upper body should be at a certain angle with his mother's legs, but not too upright.

2 ~ 3 months old baby, horizontal hug, semi-recumbent position (head high and feet low)

At this time, it is necessary to give priority to the way of holding. Because the baby's neck muscle function has not developed well at this time, the mother can hold the baby's head and neck with one hand and put the other hand between his back and buttocks to make the baby feel safe, comfortable and secure. In order to protect your baby's back and neck, you can put your baby's head on an adult's shoulder or chest.

Vertical hug for adults: Because the newborn's head accounts for a quarter of the whole body, its neck can't support the weight of the head when choosing vertical hug, so hold the baby's head and back when holding vertically.

4 ~ 5 months old baby, from semi-lying position to vertical hug.

At this point, the baby's head can be initially upright, but the support of the neck and back muscles is not enough, and it can gradually change from a horizontal hug dominated by the waist to a vertical hug. This can provide the baby with space for his body, hands and head to rotate freely, so that he can have a broader vision and the possibility of independent activities.

When holding vertically, the child can face the adult, sit on one forearm of the adult, rest his back and head on the adult's chest, and hold the child's hips forward with the other hand.

When the baby can hold vertically, there are many ways to hold.

Babies over 6 months can try all kinds of hugs.

When the baby is sleepy, he lies in his mother's arms. When he is awake, he can hold it upright outside, and when he is in a bad mood, he can hold it upright inside.

When the baby can hold vertically, there are many ways to hold.
