Infancy and childhood bathing and cleanliness.


During infancy.
-----------------

Cleanliness is necessary for the health of the infant. The main points that parents need to pay particular attention to for this purpose are:

Initially infants should be washed daily with warm water; and a bath is very necessary every night, to clean the body completely. To bathe a delicate toddler a few days or weeks old in cold water with a view to "harden" the constitution (as it is called), its health hurts, and depending on the future, but it is Water sponged in should be done lukewarm, the evening bath continues warm enough to appreciate the feeling.

In the months passed, you can gradually lower the temperature of the water until the cold is adopted. But if it plunges into cold water, however, it must be kept for a minute, especially in this period, the impression of cold, with the children of the passage, for quite some time Such extreme grace and inadequate reactions are concerned with making the bathroom cold and dangerous; warm glow on the surface is of course harmful to use

The surface of the skin should always be carefully carefully rubbed thoroughly with flannel, indeed, more than dry, warm for the skin, due to the hard work, gentle rubbing, material for this process of washing and drying It should not be done, but actively and quickly, which is then one of the most effective means of strengthening the infant. It is especially necessary to carefully dry the arm pits, groin and nates; And if the child is very fat, it will often dust over these parts with hair powder or starch: this is often very troublesome Soap exposed to dirt acceptance It is only necessary for those parts of the body that

Childhood
----------------

When this period arrives, or shortly after, there is bathing, but too often left off; the child's hands and face are kept clean and the nurse is filled with this;

A lively constitution and a robust healthy child, as he gets refreshed from his nightly rest and gets up from his bed active, put in a shower bath, and if the weather is too cold, the water is a little bit It can be slimy, but if his constitution bears it, the water should be cold throughout the year. After that, the body should be dried quickly and rubbed quickly with a slightly rough towel, and the clothes should be worn without unnecessary delay. This should be done every morning of your child's life.

If such a child is on the sea side, the benefits of this situation should be taken and the seabed should be substituted. But if so, he should not be tired in advance, as cold baths can not be used without risk. He must be careful not to stay too long as the animal's heat is lowered below the appropriate level that is most harmful. In a weak boy, this often creates a big mischief. It is also a big consequence problem in children's bathing that they should not be scared by immersion, and all precautionary measures are taken to prevent this when a healthy, strong boy is too, this is when it is practical Should always be taught to swim as soon as it is attended with the most advantageous effects;

If the child is a delicate and vivacious constitution, the summer cold bath is one of the best tonics that can be used. However, the effect of the sea bathing by such a constitution will not do good unless it succeeds by the increase in brightness, strength, sharp appetite, and the warm hot public bath of the opinion immediately becomes wrong the tiredness For this case, as in all cases when properly used, they give the whole system tone and vitality; in fact, the tepid bath is cold

In conclusion: If any shape bath can not be obtained from the situation, cold seawater sponging should be used daily, and all year round
Artificial food for toddlers.

It should be as breastfeeding as possible. It is obtained by a mixture of milk, water and sugar in the following proportions:

Fresh milk, two-thirds, boiling water, or thin barley water, one-third, bread sugar, enough to sweeten.

This is the best diet that can be used in the first half of a farinaceous food may be combined.

In early childhood, mothers considered that lighter diets would not nourish, thick chopsticks, panadas, biscuit powder, and the habit of giving such problems This is a mistake; these preparations Because they are much too solid; they overload the stomach and cause indigestion, flatulence, and griping. These again reduce the need to digest, create and need the need for anthelmintics and purgative drugs that perpetuate the evils they need, by unnatural irritation. So many toddlers are incessantly round of replenishment, dyspepsia, and from their physic or doctor if their diet is in an amount and quality suitable for their digestive power

In preparation for this diet, it is very important to get pure milk, or mixed with water and not skimmed; and in warm weather it is necessary to prepare fresh with every meal It is best not to heat the milk on fire, so it was best to not take it at once, as it was taken by the child at one time, but when it is mixed with it it will boil the water, Give to infants with lukewarm water or lukewarm water.

As the baby's age advances, the proportion of milk can gradually increase. However, if the child's health is good, there is no change in the type of food, and the appearance must be perceptually improved. Nothing is more unreasonable than the concept, in its early life children need different food; only one kind of food by nature

There are two ways by spoon. The infant's digestive power is very weak, and food is naturally taken into the stomach very slowly and is taken from the breast by the act of sucking, and a large amount of saliva is secreted, which is naturally in the mouth The process should then be emulated as much as possible; and the food should be absorbed by suction from the nursing bottle (for this purpose): it is thus obtained slowly, and the suction used is a great deal of digestion No matter what kind of bottle or nipple is used, never forget that cleanliness is essential to the success of this plan to raise a child

 The amount of Te in the food to be given at each meal ust is adjusted by the age of the child and the digestive power. A little experience will allow a careful and observing mother to quickly determine this point. As children grow older the amount must of course be increased.

However, this can easily be avoided by pursuing a systematic plan with respect to the time of eating, and then, only to surrender to the index of appetite, once this effectively indigestion, intestinal Complaints, and the only way to prevent nervous system hypersensitivity, is common in infancy, is safe for infant health nutrition, and as is well observed, "Nature is in infant The stomach was never intended to be converted into a container for laxatives, anthelmintics, antacids, stimulants, and astringents.
