Nowadays, there are still a lot of wrong parenting methods circulating, such as cutting the child’s eyelashes in order to make them longer, waking the child in the middle of the night to feed the urine, the child has a slight abnormality on calcium …… These actions not only do not give the child any benefit, but may also bring various harm to the child. 1, scraping eyebrows can make the eyebrows thick black child’s skin is delicate, such as the root of the eyebrow scratch, may change the shoulder hair position and form such as scratching the skin leading to infection and ulceration, scarring, and may no longer grow eyebrows. The correct approach: most children’s shoulder hair until about 2 years old to have a shape, parents do not need to rush. 2, pinch the nose can make the nose straight There is no definite scientific basis to confirm that frequent pinching of the nasal bridge can make the nose straight. Children’s nasal mucosa is delicate, if too hard to pinch the nose, will damage its nasal mucosa. The right approach: the five senses are mostly related to genetics, so just let nature take its course. 3, cut eyelashes to make eyelashes longer The length and thickness of eyelashes are mainly related to genetics and nutrition. Eyelashes can be used to block out dust and excessive light, so if you cut them off, your child’s eyes will be easily injured. The right thing to do: let your child’s eyelashes grow naturally. 4. Stroke the ears to make the ears more rounded Most babies’ ears are in a state of not growing, but as the child grows and develops, the ears will grow more and more shaped, which is related to genetics. Some people don’t want their children to have windy ears, so pressing the child’s ears backwards doesn’t work. The correct approach: Gently stroking your child’s ears at regular intervals can play a role in massage. If your child’s ears are really deformed, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible for an examination. 5, breast milk wipe face can make the child’s skin tender Milk rotten bacteria can easily from the invasion of the skin, resulting in the child’s face to produce redness, and even become a small package, followed by pus. Correct practice: infants do not need to apply anything if their faces are not dry, if you want to use, choose the special moisturizer for babies. 6, pulling baby teeth to make permanent teeth grow in most children the process of tooth replacement is natural turnover, do not need to pull out the baby teeth. The correct approach: when the milk teeth have not fallen out, but the permanent teeth have grown, in order to later permanent teeth can be more neat, you can pull out the milk teeth. 7, sleep hard pillow make head shape more round Long-term use of hard texture of the pillow, easy to make the newborn head deformation or the formation of the size of the face. The purpose, the real influence of the child’s head shape factors are genetics and sleeping position, and not the pillow. The right approach: often intentionally for the child to adjust the sleeping position, but do not force interference, so that the child sleep a good sleep than what degree is important, so sleep comfort is most important. 8, shave the fetal hair to make more hair newborn fetal hair to three or four months will naturally fall off, and the child’s hair condition is related to genetics, nutritional status. The birth hair shaved or not shaved are the same. Correct practice: it is best not to shave too young babies bald, which is easy to damage the hair follicles, so that the phenomenon of temporary non-growth of hair. 9, afraid of indigestion, you have been giving the baby to eat porridge Not to give the baby’s intestines to adapt to a harder food, will affect the development of the baby’s digestive capacity. And due to the lack of chewing and swallowing practice in the mouth, it may affect the baby’s oral development and facial muscle development. The right approach: to add supplementary food to children can follow the principle from a small amount to a large amount, from thin to thick, from fine to coarse, can gradually add rice flour, porridge, fruits and vegetables, meat to make nutrition more balanced, but also let the baby’s chewing and digestive ability gradually get exercise. 10, put the urine than wear diapers better infants and toddlers independent urination function with the development of the nervous system, urethral sphincter muscle and so on and gradually perfect. Diapering before that will not help your child to establish the function of independent urination. And too early diapering may also cause anal prolapse, anal fissure and frequent urination. Correct practice: infants can wear diapers, do not put the diaper before one year old, older can be potty training. 11, use alcohol to rub the child’s body to cool down The child’s skin is very young and tender, it is easy to absorb methanol, and this substance can be fatal to the brain nervous system, and the purpose of even medical alcohol or white wine rubbing bath, still may lead to alcohol poisoning of children. The correct approach: children with fever should wear less cover not to cover, you can take a warm bath, drink more water, the safest and most effective way or eat fever-reducing drugs. 12, afraid that the child is cold covered tightly The low body temperature of the child’s hands and feet is a normal physiological phenomenon, just because the child’s own heart strength is weak, low blood pressure caused by, and the child is not directly related to cold or not cold. Covered too much, but make the child irritable, sleep unstable, may also cover up prickly heat, eczema. The correct approach: to understand the child’s hot and cold conditions, should feel the child’s back or forehead these trunk areas, warm but not sweating, is the most appropriate. 13, absolutely no baby on the air conditioning hot summer climate, children’s bodies are poorly adapted to the temperature, high temperatures can easily cause heatstroke, dehydration and even sudden death. May also stimulate children’s respiratory tract, triggering asthma, or lead to heat rash, eczema and other skin inflammation. The right approach: children can reasonably use air conditioning. But before use, be sure to clean the air conditioning filter, you can maintain the temperature of the air conditioning at 26 degrees left stone, and the exhaust port do not blow directly at the child. 14, breast milk is not nutritious after 6 months So far, there is no thousand scientific basis to prove that breast milk will lose its nutritional value at any stage, breast milk will automatically adjust each secretion to meet the needs of the baby according to the baby’s growth. The correct approach: The World Health Organization recommends that babies should be exclusively breastfed for 6 months, with complementary foods added after 6 months, and breastfed until at least 1 week of age, preferably until 2 weeks of age or even longer. 15, the milk is too thin baby is not full We see that the light milk is the “front milk”, the composition is mostly water, is to quench the thirst of the baby, the more the baby eats, the thicker the breast milk, in the end, will be secreted like cream “after milk”, is to quench the hunger of the baby. The correct approach: breastfeeding, as long as the mother’s milk is sufficient, do not worry about the baby not enough to eat. 16, eating formula baby grow fast Eating formula children are indeed more likely to fat, because formula has several times more fat and protein than breast milk, which is not needed by the baby, and will cause excess weight, laying a hidden danger to future health. The correct approach: breast milk can meet the needs of the baby at every stage of growth and development, breastfeeding is healthier. 17, premature addition of complementary foods breast milk can meet all the needs of infants within six months. Adding complementary foods early will not only not help, but will cause excessive kidney load on the child and destroy the child’s absorption of breast milk, which is counterproductive. The correct approach: the baby should only be breastfed until six months of age, without adding any complementary foods. If you need to add, it is recommended to wait until at least four or five months after the baby, from the addition of vegetable juice, fruit juice began to gradually add. 18, often rocked to sleep In fact, infants will sleep on their own when sleepy, but adults to control the child’s sleep and bedtime and artificial intervention, resulting in some children rely on adults to intervene in the way to sleep. Rocking to sleep is really not good for infants. The correct approach: gradually reduce the amplitude of rocking to sleep, to non-rocking snuggling to sleep, and then to snuggle to sleep, the adult hand touch to sleep, and finally to the child to sleep on their own. Gradually transition, to develop independent sleep habits. 19, to breastfeed baby water Breast milk is more than 80% water, as long as you observe the baby in the non-medicated condition of urine is colorless transparent or slightly yellow, it means that the body water is sufficient. Correct practice: breastfed babies drink water on their own, until about 10 months left stone. 20, resolutely not to use a pacifier, to stop the baby eating hands Children eating hands can meet the needs of both physiological and psychological, within one year old baby eating hands do not need special to correct. If your baby eats hands frequently, it is recommended to use a pacifier because: a. Sucking on a pacifier can effectively prevent future tooth deformation because the round piece on the outside of the pacifier effectively resists and relieves the inward suction force caused by sucking; b. Sucking on a finger can be more difficult to quit than sucking on a pacifier. Correct: It is recommended that babies who suck their fingers as often as possible receive a pacifier, and don’t forcefully stop them when they eat their hands. 21, infants sleep during the day also pull the curtains Many parents from the beginning of the month since the day will also pull the bedroom curtains to ensure that the child has a completely dark environment to improve the quality of sleep, but in the newborn stage, this may not be conducive to the establishment of the baby’s circadian cycle. The right approach: for small children under half a year old, our advice is to try not to draw the curtains during the day, and try to keep it dark and quiet at night, and not to wake up sleeping children to drink milk. 22, moving on calcium sweating – lack of calcium, pillow baldness – lack of calcium, head shape is not good – lack of calcium, crying in the middle of the night – lack of calcium, walking late – lack of calcium, do not love to eat Sakan – lack of calcium …… In fact, as far as urban children are concerned, especially families who do not blink at nautical calcium supplements, calcium deficiency is almost impossible. Sweating is most likely to cover the child too much: pillow baldness most children will have, if premature use of pillows or poor choice of bedding more obvious: head shape problems are more likely to be caused by sleeping in the wrong position, too little prone time …… correct practice: 0-6 months whether breast milk, formula or mixed feeding babies, as long as the amount of milk After 6 months, if the baby has a balanced diet, there is no possibility of calcium deficiency. 23. Only breastfed babies born in winter need vitamin D supplementation The vitamin D content in breast milk is not high. Therefore breastfed babies, if there is no moderate exposure to sunlight, it is easy to occur some diseases caused by vitamin D deficiency. The correct approach: infants should begin to supplement vitamin D soon after birth. 24, too early for babies to learn to sit Babies are born with large heads and small bodies, each baby must go through enough lying down and crawling, pre and back muscles and bones to support his big head. There are countless babies who have learned to sit too early, resulting in stooping backs and spinal deformities. The right approach: from an early age to encourage children to wake up more lying down, exercise their neck and back muscles, head up, crawl, sit, stand, walk is a matter of water. 25, too early to learn to walk, use the walker Let children too early to learn to walk, use the walker, etc., will cause the child bone marrow development abnormalities, the formation of O-leg. The walker will hinder the development of the gluteus muscle, plus most children use the walker to walk and stand on their toes, so children naturally cannot learn to put their feet flat to support their bodies. The correct approach: to let the child learn to walk in a natural environment 26, snoring means that the baby sleeps well The occasional snoring of the baby may be caused by the flu, but if the baby snores often, it may be due to adenoid hypertrophy, tonsil hypertrophy or other reasons, affecting the nasopharynx ventilation caused. Correct practice: If your baby often has sleep snoring and open mouth breathing, it is best to go to the hospital for examination in time. 27, drink glucose water to go yellow pox For infant jaundice, it is necessary to increase the amount of feeding, resulting in increased bowel movements, which in turn can reduce the effect of yellow pox. The absorption process of glucose only increases the glucose content in the blood, so that the body’s energy supply is maintained in a certain range, and the amount of bowel movements will not increase, so it is not conducive to newborns to recede yellow. The correct approach: feed more milk, get more sunlight and let the jaundice metabolize on its own. If it is still very serious, go to the hospital in time to see a doctor. 28, mouth-to-mouth feeding Parents feeding their babies through mouth-to-mouth can easily infect them with Helicobacter pylori, causing chronic gastritis, peptic ulcers and other diseases, and can even lead to growth retardation. The correct approach: to feed the baby’s food, parents must not use saliva contact. 29, randomly feed the baby to eat Hazard: 1, foreign body stuck in the throat.

The right approach: feed your little one to choose easy to chew and swallow, not easily allergenic food. 30, teasing the child when eating teasing the child when eating, the child shouting or laughing, followed by a deep inhalation, rice and other food will be inhaled with the airflow of the trachea, causing respiratory obstruction, and even breathing difficulties, room breath. The correct approach: feeding your child should keep him or her calm and focused. 31, overly make the baby laugh Bao lack of self-control, if the laughter incessantly, will cause instant ventricular rest, hypoxia, causing temporary cerebral ischemia, there is damage to brain function, may also cause stuttering. The correct approach: teasing should be appropriate. 32, shaking and high throwing baby when playing baby’s head volume and weight accounted for a large proportion of the whole body, but the neck muscles on the head support is very weak, violent shaking and high throwing can easily cause concussion in young children, or worse, will make the retinal capillaries congested, resulting in retinal detachment. The correct approach: gentle shaking is not a problem, but be sure to use the palm of your hand to hold the child’s neck. 32, a newborn baby’s taste buds are unusually sensitive, sugar water, orange juice and salt are strong stimulants, may seriously damage the baby’s taste buds, resulting in the baby does not like to drink plain water, picky eating heavy. The correct approach: do not give babies to eat stimulating food. 34, teasing children to drink Children’s liver development and metabolic function is not perfect, even if it is a lower degree of alcohol, alcohol is easy to accumulate in the body caused by poisoning. Once overdosed, serious illnesses such as coma may occur, which can seriously affect brain development. The right thing to do: keep babies and children away from alcohol. 35, randomly kissing the baby Hazards: 1, infectious diseases. Cold, oral disease or hepatitis, tuberculosis and other infectious diseases of people kissing children, it is easy to cause the child to get sick; 2, causing dermatitis. Most of the cosmetics and lipstick on the adult’s face contain fragrances and various chemicals, and direct contact with the child, will harm the child’s tender skin. The correct approach: close contact with the baby please ensure that the hygiene and health of adults. 36, hold the child in the car car speed at 50 kilometers per hour collision, a child weighing 10 kg instantly will produce cattle about 300 kg of impact. In this case, generally no one can hold the child, the child’s head collision, the consequences are unimaginable. The correct approach: to the child to use a child safety seat. 37, wake up the baby at night to feed, put the poop Many mothers and fathers worried about the baby hungry, often wake up the baby at night to feed. There are parents who are afraid that their children will wet the bed and wake up in the middle of the night to urinate.

The correct approach: let your baby sleep until he or she wakes up naturally, and use diapers to sleep at night. 38, using pure water, mineral water to brew milk powder healthier pure water removed a variety of macronutrients and most of the trace elements, long-term drinking will cause the child nutrient intake is insufficient; mineral water contains too many nutrients, long-term drinking will cause the child some elements intake too much. The correct approach: use tap water boiled and cooled to the right temperature to brew milk. 39, to the newborn leg binding Many places have the custom of leg binding, many elderly people think that the baby will grow up legs will be straight and long. In fact, leg binding impedes the blood circulation in the baby’s legs, not only is not conducive to bone development, and the baby’s limb movement is artificially restricted will also cause great psychological shadow to the baby, and thus more likely to emotional irritability, crying, insecurity. The correct approach: give your baby loose clothing, so that his limbs are not restricted in any way. 40, always think that the child is not full, a cry on feeding some parents, especially the older generation, every time they see a child crying, they think the child must be hungry, no matter what, lift up the clothes on feeding. There are many reasons why children cry, not necessarily because they are hungry.
