They understand and respond only to internal and external cues that are happening in the moment.

It can be an overwhelming time of discovery for both mommy and daddy – but one thing to be sure of is that there is no such thing as spoiling a baby.

Bonding with Your Baby by Responding to Cues

As soon as your baby is born he is communicating with you. While feelings of gas, hunger, discomfort or pain will create one type of response from your baby – crying! Feelings of comfort and contentment will create another type of response from your baby – sleeping, smiling or cooing!

Your baby will also use body language to provide you with cues on how they are feeling and what they need. Kicking, rubbing eyes and pulling hair can all be signs that your baby needs something whether it is a nap, a bottle or a cuddle is up to you to discover and it is all part of the learning and bonding process that parents go through with their newborn.

Parents that regularly respond to a baby’s cues create a strong sense of trust and comfort. This trust is a critical component of the bonding process between a baby and a parent.

The Importance of Touch

Baby touch and massage is an excellent way to nurture and comfort your baby. Studies have shown that babies who are touched, massaged, held, cuddled, rocked and comforted will gain weight faster, become less irritable and sleep deeper for longer periods of time.

Hugging is a form of touch and critical to the emotional development of a child. Hugging can help overcome fear, support self esteem, improve sleep and create a sense of belonging.

A nurturing touch can support proper physical and psychological development of babies. In fact, studies indicate that hugging can have a positive effect on a child’s IQ.

Everyone Needs Quiet Time . . . Even Babies!

Quite time in the crib, bouncy seat or playpen will provide your baby with time to relax and play by herself. Constant stimulation can be overwhelming and exhausting to a baby. Too much stimulation can make a baby cranky. Quiet time is an opportunity for your baby to entertain himself and perhaps even take a nap.

Play is Fundamental to the Learning Process

Playtime can help a baby discover their surrounding environment and how they fit in with the world around them. Touching toys, crawling on the floor, stacking building blocks, holding a doll or playing with a cardboard box . . . these are all ways in which babies learn. Whenever a baby is provided with the opportunity to play she is learning and developing – hand eye coordination, dexterity, balance, concepts and more.

Providing your baby with a safe environment and age appropriate toys will encourage her to explore and allow her to be curious which can help in her growth and development.

Reading to Your Baby: A Bonding Experience

I had no idea that this condition existed until my daughter experienced it. Natalie’s face was covered in a rash of tiny sore looking red pimples, from her forehead to her chin. We tried creams, lotions, vaseline and more, only to find out that applying anything on the rash will aggravate the condition further. We had to learn to restrain ourselves, comfort our daughter and let the acne run its course. Patting her face with a cool damp cloth seemed to help and eventually the acne subsided, but it took several weeks.

Causes of Baby Acne

Baby Acne is also known as neonatal acne and can be found on the face, chest and arms. When a woman gives birth her maternal hormones travel across the placenta to the baby. Some of these hormones can cause an increased amount of oil production within the sebaceous glands of the newborn baby and after several weeks a rash of pimples may appear. Baby Acne seems worse during times when the baby is fussing, hot or crying. Some doctors can prescribe a cortisone based cream to help speed up the recovery.

Ways to Reduce Inflammation:

*Wipe baby’s face with a cool damp cloth after feeding and when baby is drooling.

*Use soaps and shampoos sparingly.

*Use fragrance free, dye free detergents when washing baby cloths, towels & sheets.

*If prolonged or severe doctors can prescribe a cortisone based cream to help speed up the recovery.

Ways to get your baby to have a restful and sound sleep. As a new parent you are thrust into a new experience that you thought you were prepared for – a beautiful baby, lots of coo’s, cuddles and smiles and dirty smelly diapers.

The one thing, though, that you could never have prepared for is that your newborn won’t sleep! The sleepless nights are taking a toll; you are exhausted, lethargic and are starting to worry that you will never get a good night’s sleep again.

When it comes to sleep deprivation there are four things you need to know: you are not alone, you are not a failure, this stage will not last forever and you will get a good nights’ sleep.

The fact is that most babies do not sleep through the night. A newborn has a very small stomach which fills up quickly with a bit of formula or breast milk. As a result, during the first three months, a baby will wake every 2-3 hours for a feeding. These first few months when your newborn won’t sleep can be very tough but there are a few things you can try to help your fall asleep after each feeding:

Co-sleeping

There is nothing wrong with co-sleeping if you follow safe sleeping practices. In fact it may be beneficial to your baby and allow you to get a good night’s sleep. I never thought I would co-sleep with my baby but eventually it is what worked for us.

Baby swing

A baby swing can relax your little one and lull her to sleep. Once she is asleep try placing her in her crib. If she wakes you may want to leave her in the swing while you relax and enjoy some quiet time. Some parents have slept on the couch while their baby naps in the swing.

Vibrations

A good vibrating baby chair can do wonders for getting your baby to sleep. When my daughter was a few months old we had her sleep in the vibrating chair – it was the only way she would sleep for a few hours in a row without fussing.

Sound Sleep with White noise

It can be a radio set in between stations, a fan going in the room, the sound of the humidifier or an actual white noise maker. This can help your little one fall asleep as well as help him sleep for longer periods throughout the night. We like to keep our daughter’s humidifier running at night and on occasion we will keep the bathroom fan on because it helps her sleep and it drowns out any background noise going on in the household.

Nightly routine

Establish a consistent bedtime routine with your baby. Give him a bath, get him in his pj’s, read a story, or sing to him. Babies respond extremely

well to routines and consistent habits and if you establish these routines, he will know that bedtime is near. Consistency is key but keep in mind that some babies don’t sleep through the night until they are 10-12 months old. Some nights he may sleep for 5 hours in a row and other nights it may only be 2 hours before he wakes up.

Things such as teething, hunger or gas can disrupt a baby’s sleeping patterns. However, establishing a good bedtime routine can help him settle down and fall asleep in a quicker time frame.

Music/white noise

Try music or soothing sounds when he goes to bed. This will help relax your little one and minimize any background noise in the household.

Nightlight

Keep lights low before putting your baby down as bright lights can be stimulating. If you prefer to turn the lights off keep a small nightlight on in his room an in the hallway.

Pacifier

Sucking on a pacifier is both relaxing and comforting to babies. “Babies who are offered a pacifier do not sleep as deeply as those who sleep without a pacifier,” said Dr. Jane Soxman, Diplomate of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry. “Pacifier sucking makes it possible for the infant to be aroused from a deep sleep that could result in the stopping of breathing. Pacifiers also increase sucking satisfaction and provide a source of comfort to infants.” source: Colgate.com

Swaddle

If your newborn won’t sleep try swaddling. Swaddling your baby provides warmth, comfort and security which in turn will help your baby fall asleep and get a sound sleep for longer periods of time.

Keep baby active during the day

This could be tummy time for smaller babies or lots of crawling and exploring for older babies. Keeping your baby active and stimulated during the day will help tire him out and prepare him for sleep.

Babies with colic show no other health concerns or issues however, they have the tendency to cry regularly for long periods of time. Gripe water for colic is an extremely effective way to relieve the discomfort associated with colicky babies.

Signs and Symptoms of Colic

• Crying for up to 3 hours at a time
• Crying that occurs in a regular pattern on a consistent basis
• The crying episodes usually occur in the afternoon and evening
• Symptoms often begin after a feeding
• There is no discernible reason for the crying episodes
• The crying appears intense and the baby is usually inconsolable
• Baby’s body language – tense with clenched fists and folded up or curled legs – these are similar to signs of gas.
• The crying occurs out of the blue for no apparent reason (baby is healthy) but in a regular pattern that can be seen on an almost daily basis
• When the crying does stop it stops quickly

With colic there is no change in the baby’s feeding habits, sleeping patterns, regular bowel movements or other behaviours. If you notice a change in baby’s feeding habits, sleeping patterns, bowel movements or if you observe unusual behaviour it is important to see a doctor or health care practitioner.

What Causes Baby Colic?

There is no known cause for colic; however, many health care providers believe there is a direct connection between colic and a baby’s under developed or immature digestive system. Most often, the condition will begin several weeks after a baby is born and continue for approximately 4 months.

Baby Colic and Breastfeeding – Baby Colic and Bottle Feeding

Colic and Breastfeeding: To determine if your baby is experiencing digestive discomfort you may want to consider keeping a food diary and track what and when you are eating, when your baby feeds and when your baby experiences colic symptoms.

An immature digestive system could mean your baby has difficulty digesting some of the proteins in your breast milk based on what you are eating. Try cutting out spicy foods, caffeine and dairy to see if your baby’s colic improves.

Colic and Formula Feeding: If you are formula feeding you may want to consider switching formulas to see if it makes a difference.

Colic and Bottle Feeding: If your baby is bottle fed (breast or formula) try using baby bottles that are specifically designed to cut down on air bubbles that can lead to gas pains and discomfort for baby.

Tips for Easing the Signs and Symptoms of Colic

Although colic has no specific treatment or cure there are ways to reduce the symptoms and to ease a baby’s discomfort.

• Gripe Water for Colic
• Colic Baby Bottles that reduce air bubbles and gas
• Pacifier
• Rocking
• White noise
• Burping
• Skin to Skin Contact
• Warm Bath

Babies with colic are high maintenance babies – meaning that there are going to be times when you are simply exhausted. If possible you and your partner should take turns caring for your baby. There is no point in both of you staying up all night. There is also nothing wrong with enlisting help from friends and family. If you feel stressed out or simply exhausted and require some much needed sleep – reach out to your family and friends for support or hire a babysitter to come in for a few hours so you can refuel, rest and refocus.

Accidents involving children in the home is one of the major reasons for emergency room visits to the hospital.

Whether a child has fallen, had something fall on him, hit her head or stuffed something up her nose – accidents happen and they happen quickly.

Taking steps to childproof the home is critical to the safety and well being of your child. However, as careful as parents are, there are some things we just don’t foresee.

For example, did you know that tables with three legs tip over very easily (like, at the speed of light). Tables with glass tops should never be in a home with a child. Gates at the bottom of the stairs are just as important as those at the top of the stairs.

If you think you have child proofed your home – check again. Get down on a child’s level (lay on the floor) and look around. Is there anything that can be pulled down on a child, anywhere a baby can crawl and hurt her self, a plug she can pull on or an electrical outlet that is not covered.

Install Baby Gates at the Top and Bottom of the Stairs

Baby gates are a fundamental safety requirement in any home that has a child. It only takes a second for child to crawl over and down the stairs. In addition a baby that can crawl will inevitably reach for the stairs and attempt to climb up the stairs. Have baby gates at both the top and bottom of the stairs.

Cover Electrical Outlets, Secure Windows & Invest in Retrofit Kits for Blinds

Place plastic inserts in electrical outlets and make sure all electrical cords are out of reach – specifically electrical cords that can pull down a lamp or that your child could potentially get tangled up in.

Check window coverings and blinds for loose or dangling cords and ties. Retrofit cords using child safety retrofitting kits. Remove curtain ties that pull curtains back and avoid having any types of dangling curtain pieces. Check window safety by ensuring that windows when opened can be locked into place.

Turn Down Water Heater Temperature & Install Toilet Seat Latches

Examine the temperature that your water heater is set to and if the heat is set at a temperature higher than 120 degrees turn the heat down. 120 degrees is the ideal temperature because it is hot but will not scald.

Invest in a toilet seat latch that can lock the toilet seat down in a closed position. This will prevent your child from opening the toilet seat up and falling in. Toilet seat locks are also a great way to prevent your child from throwing things into the toilet such as toys, cell phones, watches etc.

Install Cupboard, Cabinet and Drawer Locks & Latches

Invest in safety latches for all kitchen and bathroom cabinets, drawers and cupboards. Safety latches are particularly important so that a child cannot get into cupboards or drawers that contain sharp objects, food, packages or cleaning products.

Remove Sharp Objects & Keep Pots and Pans off the Stove Top

Consider placing sharp objects and cleaning products up high in cabinets that your child will never ever manage to get to. Medicine and vitamins should also be relocated to a cabinet or cupboard that is well out of a child’s reach.

Check the stove for possible dangers. Keep pots and pans off the stove and stored away until you need them. If you are cooking make sure to turn the handles inward. Keep toasters, coffee pots and tea pots well out of reach at all times.

Invest in Door Knob Covers and Secure Bookshelves and Wall Units to the Wall

Make it a priority to secure wall units, bookshelves and flat screen televisions to the wall.

Invest in door knob covers to prevent a child from being able to open a door. In addition make sure that if your child accidentally locks him/herself in a room that you can quickly unlock the door from the other side.

Keep Plants out of Reach and Emergency Numbers Close By

Some houseplants are considered toxic if they are eaten. Find out what kind of houseplants you have in your home and remove the ones that are poisonous. In addition, be mindful of the soil – use organic soil without additional houseplant food or fertilizer.

Keep emergency phone numbers located on your fridge and close to your phone. In addition make sure to get certified in first aid and have a first aid book located by your phone as well. If an emergency occurs you will have the necessary numbers and first aid information literally at your fingertips.

Most of us spend more time outside during the spring and summer months. Walking in the park, backyard barbeques, swimming and playing on the playground are all common activities for families during the warm weather.

Along with these outdoor activities comes the additional exposure to bugs, mosquitoes, wasps and bees.It is impossible to prevent your child from being bitten or stung at some point during the spring and summer seasons but there are ways to reduce itching, swelling and pain associated with bug bites and stings.

Mosquito bites

Mosquitoes are extremely active at night and are most prevalent during the spring and summer months. Redness, swelling and itching on and around mosquito bites are common indicators that you or your child has been bitten by a mosquito.

Calamine lotion can reduce the itching, however, if you do not have any Calamine lotion you can dampen the skin with water and apply a pinch of salt to the mosquito bite. You can also make a paste using baking soda and water and apply it to the affected areas. If the bites become swollen use an ice pack on the swollen area for 10-15 minutes.

Flea bites

If you have a cat or a dog, chances are your little one may have a flea bite. Fleas are known to live in carpets and furniture and are prevalent during the summer months. Signs of a flea bite include small itchy bumps on your feet or ankles. Have your pets treated for flea by using veterinarian prescribed treatments or collars that can repel or eliminate fleas. If your child has a flea bite clean the area and apply calamine lotion.

Bee Stings

Usually when a baby or toddler is stung there is a mild reaction of itching, soreness, stinging and swelling. When a bee stings it leaves a barb or stinger in the skin. The barb has a venom gland that releases venom when you try to squeeze or remove the stinger from the skin.

Symptoms of a bee sting include swelling, redness and pain. Symptoms can take up to four hours to appear. However, if a child has an allergic reaction the symptoms will be more severe and occur immediately after the child has been stung. An allergic reaction can occur in the form of a widespread rash, numerous hives, vomiting, confusion, swelling of the lips or throat, difficulty breathing or anaphylactic shock. If there is a severe reaction to a bee sting it is critical to seek medical assistance immediately.

The first step for treating a mild or local reaction to a bee sting is to remove the stinger. Rather than squeezing, tweezing or manipulating the skin to remove the stinger take a credit card and scrape the stinger out of the skin. This should keep the venom sack in tact and prevent further pain associated with the sting. Clean the area with soap and water, apply soothing calamine lotion and an ice pack to reduce swelling.

Tea Tree oil has anti-inflammatory properties that can promote healing. Use a cotton swab to apply a small amount of tea tree oil to the infected area.

Wasp stings

Wasps are aggressive insects that have the ability to inflict numerous stings. To treat a wasp sting clean the area with soap and water, apply calamine lotion or tea tree oil as well as an ice pack or cold cloth to reduce swelling and promote healing.

Preventative Measures

Preventative measures that can reduce the chances of your child being bitten or stung by an insect or bug include dressing your child in plain colored loose clothing covering the arms and legs. Avoid using scented products on your child such as scented shampoos, soaps, creams or lotions. If at all possible use citronella candles to repel mosquitoes and other bugs from the area that your children are playing in.

Dealing with tantrums is part of the parenting package especially for parents of toddlers. A tantrum is an expression of a variety of emotions in a relatively short period of time

Why Do Toddlers Have Tantrums?

Babies, toddlers and young children have not yet developed the ability to reason or talk things out and they do not have the experience to understand the concept of patience, delayed gratification or impulse control.Instead they tend to live in the moment and when they express a want or need it is in the moment.

When a toddler wants something such as a toy, a marker or piece of candy they want it immediately. If they are told “no” or are denied something that they want they may simply move on to another toy or something that catches their eye. However, on occasion a temper tantrum will occur.

The ability to effectively deal with tantrums can benefit a child promoting positive emotional development and growth. Temper tantrums are a normal and common way for a young child to express emotion. A tantrum can involve screaming, crying, kicking, and lying on the floor. It can last anywhere from a few seconds to several minutes.

Five Ways to Positively Deal with a Temper Tantrum:

1. Remain Calm
Although it can sometimes be a challenge it is important to remain calm and say little. A child in the midst of a tantrum will not listen to reason until the wave of emotion passes.

2. Keep Your Child Safe
Assess the environment and remove any dangerous obstacles or remove your child from the area. For example, if your toddler is flailing around on the hardwood floor move him to a carpeted area.

• Refrain from walking away during a tantrum.
• Leaving a child that is in a heightened emotional state alone is not recommended.
• A parent should remain with the child.

3. Provide Emotional Support
During the tantrum sit on the couch or on a bench or anywhere close by. Your presence provides emotional support whether you know it or not.

• If your little one calms down take the opportunity to speak soothing words that validate her emotions.
• An example would be “I know you want a cookie and you are upset that you can’t have it.”
• Yelling at your child during a tantrum or afterward will not prevent future tantrums.

Young children have tantrums to simply process their emotions. Allow them to go through their emotions in a safe and secure environment knowing that their parent(s) will be there for them when the tantrum ends.

4. Do Not Give In
Giving in to a tantrum is counter-productive and teaches your child that tantrums are an effective way to get what they want. The same goes for trying to fix the situation by offering your child different toys or foods or items to appease her.

This is not an effective method of dealing with a tantrum and it will only make things more difficult for the parent in the future.

5. Move On
Tantrums are not personal and are simply an outlet for your child. When a tantrum is over and your child comes to you – take the time to hold him, talk quietly to him, hug him and kiss him.

• When he is ready he will move on and so will you.
• Do not hold grudges, show anger or scold your child
• Tantrums are part of the process of growing up and will allow your child to work through his emotions.

Eventually, over time, tantrums will occur less often as your little one learns to work through his emotions, process information and verbalize his thoughts.

Before you walk into your baby’s room you just know there has been a massive deposit (read: explosion). You hold your breath and enter.

There stands your precious angelic baby with a wide toothed grin on his chubby little face. His white pj’s are a muddy shade of brown.

Poop is everywhere, up his back, in his hair, it seeps through clothing and travels up the body, out the arm and leg holes and onto the sheets.

Wait is that poop on the wall? How the heck . . . ? There seems to be more poop than baby. Poor guy, how did he every hold that in?

You strip off his cloths and become covered in poop. You run to the tub with his naked little body in your arms. You turn on the tap and hold his bum directly under the spray of water. He laughs with delight. You wash his hair, legs, arms and get him all cleaned up. The water finally turns runs clear, no more poop. Whew!

Now time to tackle the nursery. You change the sheets, wash the walls and open the windows. Ahhhh, the smell of fresh air. If only you had time to hop in the shower – you sniff yourself over and hope that you don’t smell too bad.

Your little guy has been playing in the playpen while you’ve cleaning. You go to get the little

Babies tend to have immature or underdeveloped digestive systems which can result in spitting up which is the reflux of food or milk during and after a feeding.  The main infant reflux symptom is frequent vomiting and colic.

When reflux occurs in a baby the food or milk moves from the stomach and up toward the esophagus and brings with it stomach acid which can cause subtle to severe discomfort in a baby.  Usually, the upward movement from the stomach will cause spitting up, vomiting and colic.

Common Acid Reflux Symptoms in an Infant

• Frequent vomiting
• Frequent burping that result in spit up
• Symptoms of  colic
• Poor appetite
• Gagging or choking during feedings
• Wheezing, bronchitis or asthma
• Gulping or re-swallowing during feedings
• Fussiness and crying
  

Many babies diagnosed with reflux experience mild or uncomplicated symptoms such as spitting up or occasional vomiting.

Approximately 40-60% of newborns have varying degrees of reflux due to an underdeveloped digestive system or an under developed esophagus sphincter.  While the most common symptom of reflux in baby is vomiting or spitting up, some babies show no outward physical signs other than baby colic.  The regurgitation of the contents of the stomach can be very uncomfortable and cause a baby to become “fussy” or “colicky”.  Reflux in baby without vomiting or spitting up is often referred to as “Silent Reflux”.

How to Relieve the Symptoms of Acid Reflux in Baby

• Offer frequent feedings with smaller portions of food or smaller amounts of milk
• If bottle feeding use a slow flow nipple
• If bottle feeding use a bottle that is designed to reduce the amount of air bubbles being swallowed during a feeding.
• If formula feeding try a different formula
• Burp a baby after each meal
• Keep distractions to a minimum during feeding time
• After each meal/feeding allow baby time to relax and rest
• Offer baby some Colic Calm or Gripe Water to aid digestion and to reduce gas
• After each feeding keep baby in an upright position by burping or simply holding baby upright (over the shoulder or in a baby sling/baby bjorn) to encourage the food or milk to move downward and digest.

As newborns and babies grow and develop they will outgrow the reflux because their digestive system will grow and develop as well which leads to improved digestive functioning and ultimately less reflux.  Babies usually outgrow reflux anywhere between 6 months to12 months of age.
