Guidelines for Parents, Added

 Additional Child Advice

* Diapers: Most infants who are fed by the PDF technique typically require a diaper change after each feeding. Accordingly, your child will require at least six to eight diaper changes per day. If you miss it, you will only have a few more diapers to change during the day. Many new parents schedule diaper changes to coincide with the after-dinner digestive movement.

* Diaper rash: Some infants have sensitive skin, which can lead to diaper rashes from food allergies, yeast infections, sitting for too long in a damp or messy diaper, or teething. Consult your doctor about the best diaper rash treatment for your child if you see signs of the rash developing on them.

* Growth spurts: Growth spurts can begin as soon as 10 days after the delivery of your child. A sleepy, listless day and a sharp increase in appetite typically anticipate growth spurts. At 3, 6, and 12 weeks, as well as at 4 and 6 months, growth surges may occur once more. If you observe that your child is not as satisfied with the quantity you have been feeding her, she may be starting a growth spurt period. If you are breastfeeding, you might want to add one or two feedings to help sate your infant's appetite and boost milk output.

* Vaccinations: Given the conflicting information on vaccinations, you might be undecided about whether or not you want your kid to get vaccinations. I believe that the risk is simply not worth it because there are simply too many fatal illnesses that can be avoided by immunizing your baby. If you're unsure, consult your pediatrician. However, keep in mind that the fact that immunizations are regularly administered in this nation accounts for the low infant mortality rate.

* Pacifiers and thumb sucking: If you are breastfeeding, prevent your infant from using you as a pacifier. You should give your infant a pacifier if they appear to have an insatiable urge to suck after meals. A breast nipple and a pacifier have very distinct textures and flavors, so there is no "nipple confusion" between them. Even infants can distinguish between the two. Some kids prefer to sucke on their thumb instead of a cushion. Allow them to do it if you have no objections.

* Spitting up: Spitting up is a very typical occurrence in babies, though some spit up more frequently than others. There is no cause for concern if your baby is developing regularly. Spitting up is distinct from vomiting up while moving. Projectile vomiting—as opposed to merely "burping" up some milk—is a violent response to reject the contents of the stomach. Consult your doctor if your child does this frequently.
