How to keep your baby healthy
- Breastfeed or use formula: For infants, breast milk or formula provides the necessary nutrients for growth and development. Breast milk is best as it contains antibodies that help protect against infections and diseases.
- Practice good hygiene: Wash your hands before handling your baby and keep your baby’s surroundings clean. Clean and disinfect toys and surfaces your baby comes in contact with regularly.
- Ensure proper sleep: New-borns typically sleep for 16-17 hours a day, while older babies need 12-14 hours of sleep. Establishing a routine and a conducive sleeping environment can help your baby get adequate rest.
- Regular medical check-ups: Regular medical check-ups are essential to ensure that your baby is growing and developing as expected. Vaccinations are also crucial to protect against diseases.
- Provide a safe environment: Ensure that your home is safe for your baby by baby-proofing your home, including securing cabinets and drawers, covering electrical outlets, and keeping sharp objects out of reach.
- Encourage physical activity: As your baby grows, encourage physical activity, such as tummy time, crawling, and walking. This can help build strength, coordination, and gross motor skills.
- Limit screen time: Screen time should be limited for infants and young children. Experts recommend avoiding screen time altogether for children under two years of age.
- Maintain a healthy diet: As your baby grows and starts to eat solid foods, ensure a balanced and healthy diet. Introduce a variety of fruits, vegetables, and proteins while limiting sugary and processed foods.
