Dealing with a diaper rash can be a common, yet distressing part of parenthood. Fortunately, the right diaper rash cream can soothe your baby's discomfort and protect their delicate skin.   When choosing a diaper rash cream, look for one that is easy to apply, absorbs well, and is gentle on your baby's sensitive skin. It's essential to select a product free from harsh chemicals. Instead, it should contain ingredients that soothe irritation and form a protective barrier, such as zinc oxide or panthenol.   Diaper rash creams serve a dual purpose - they not only treat existing rashes but also help prevent future ones. They provide relief from discomfort and create a barrier against moisture, allowing the skin to heal. Regular application can keep your baby comfortable and rash-free.   Remember, every baby is unique, and what works for one might not work for another. Always consult with a healthcare professional if the rash persists or worsens. Trust in quality products to provide the best care for your baby's skin, ensuring happy bottoms and even happier babies.

Summer, with its bright, sunny days, brings joy but also concerns for new parents about keeping their baby safe and comfortable. This guide to summer baby care focuses on key areas: hydration, appropriate clothing, sun protection, and recognizing signs of overheating. Hydration is paramount during summer. Babies can dehydrate quickly in hot weather, so it's essential to ensure they're getting enough fluids, whether it's through breast milk, formula, or water for older infants. Choosing the right clothing is another crucial aspect. Lightweight, breathable fabrics can help your baby stay cool. A sun hat is a great addition to protect their delicate skin from harmful rays, making summer strolls more enjoyable. Sun protection is a key aspect of summer baby care. Shield your infant from direct sunlight, especially during peak hours (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.). A stroller with a canopy or an umbrella can provide much-needed shade. For babies over six months, consider applying a baby-safe sunscreen for added protection. Lastly, stay vigilant for signs of overheating, such as red cheeks, rapid breathing, and restlessness. If you notice these signs, move your baby to a cooler place and remove excess clothing. By keeping these summer baby care tips in mind, new parents can ensure their little one's safety and comfort, making the season more enjoyable for the whole family.

        Whether you’re breastfeeding, formula-feeding or doing a combination of both, chances are you’ll eventually use a bottle with your infant. While images of a parent blissfully holding a bottle make the process look easy, but you need to know about how to bottle-feed a baby safely and happily.         When it comes to figuring out how to bottle-feed a baby, selecting an appropriate bottle and nipple is step one.          There has a tip for all parents: Look for a bottle that’s easy to take apart and clean. That generally means a nice wide neck and the fewest parts possible. Proper cleaning is so important, so choose the simplest bottle, which may just have a nipple, bottle and collar. If your child seems happy and easily takes the bottle, then there’s no need to switch.         Of course, it’s also important to pay attention to the flow of the nipple, which varies based on infant age. Generally speaking, young babies need a slower flow, while older babies who’ve mastered the art of bottle-feeding can handle a faster flow. The nipple may be called “slow flow,” “medium flow” or “fast flow” or may be numbered from one to three, with one being the slowest flow. There is no standard of flow between different brands, but most newborns should begin on level one or slow flow.         So how can you tell when it’s time to change the nipple size? Some infants happily use the same flow nipple throughout their infancy, while others may need a faster flow nipple. “If you notice your child taking a long time to finish a bottle, or losing interest midway through feedings, a faster flow nipple may be needed, this might happen at around 3 or 4 months of age, with another potential upgrade around 6 or 7 months.         If your infant finishes a bottle quickly (say, under five minutes), seems gassy or cranky, or spits up a lot of milk right after feedings, it may be time to go back to a slower-flow nipple.

The Lip Barrier Function Is Weaker Than Other Parts Of The Skin Lips have only a thin layer of cutin, only 1/5~1/3 of other skin thickness, and have no sebaceous glands, which cannot secrete oil to form a protective film. Such a structure leads to the weak barrier function of the lips, and the moisture is extremely easy to lose. If it is not protected in time, it is easy to dry and crack the skin, and even causes problems such as cheilitis. Babies' Lips Are Thinner And Need More Protection Than Adults' The epidermis of a baby's lips is only 1/10 of that of an adult, so the barrier function is weaker and moisture is more likely to evaporate. Moreover, babies have drooling and saliva that can irritate the skin and cause inflammatory reactions, so babies' lips need to be cared for seasons. How To Choose BabyLip Balm Lip balm selection mainly depends on the oil, which generally has vegetable oil and mineral oil. Vegetable oil can not only form a protective film to strengthen the barrier function of the lips, but also provide nutrients for the lip skin to achieve hydration and moisturisation. With hydrating and locking water ability, vegetable oil is better than mineral oil, and the skin feels lighter with the vegetable oil. Aiwibi baby lip balm is enriched with natural camellia oil. The natural camellia oil makes it smell nice and look fresh. The nourishing balm can help relieve the lip dryness caused by cold, sunshine and others, and take good care of baby’s lovely lips.     

There are two reasons why a baby may become constipated. 1.The structure of complementary food is not reasonable, and the structure of complementary food with more meat and less vegetables will easily cause insufficient intake of dietary fibre and cause constipation. 2.Constipation is a sign of allergy and there may be foods in the complementary diet that are causing your baby's allergy and the allergens need to be identified. If allergens are detected in complementary foods, a "dietary avoidance" is required. Parents should ensure that their baby's complementary foods do not contain allergenic foods and that the baby's diet is balanced to ensure normal growth. If no allergens are detected in complementary foods, constipation in babies can be improved as follows: A balanced diet In addition to ensuring a daily milk intake, parents should pay attention to a balanced diet, especially with adequate intake of vegetables and fruits, and a good mix of meat and vegetables. Dietary fibre (e.g. prebiotics) can also be supplemented to promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the baby's intestinal tract to protect it from constipation caused by intestinal dysfunction.   Increase water intake Some babies are constipated because they drink too little water. These babies' poops are usually dry, hard and dark, or even as bad as sheep faeces, and they struggle to pass poop. In such cases, mothers are advised to increase the amount of water their babies drink, and to drink warm water as appropriate.   Let the baby exercise more The less your baby moves, the greater the risk of constipation. Make sure your baby crawls, rolls back and forth or walks a lot during the day, as more movement helps with bowel movements. If your baby is too young, parents can try gently giving your baby leg exercises by pushing his or her knees alternately into the abdomen. This helps to move food through the digestive system, making the digestive tract move better and helping with bowel movements.    

Although how much a formula-fed baby eats at each meal can be known by the scale, each baby is an individual and feeding infant formula can be too much or too little. If you want to tell whether your baby is drinking enough or not, you can tell from your baby's mental state and drinking status, but also from the following 3 aspects. 1.Does green poop appear due to hunger        If your baby always has green poop, mothers should pay attention to whether it is a type of green poop. Your baby's digestion is normal, the intestines keep moving normally and digestive juices are secreted normally. The unused digestive juices, especially bilirubin, are green when passed in the stool. The stools may be more frequent, with mucus in them, and similar in shape to the green poop caused by cold, but the volume of the stool is relatively less. 2.Observe the condition of your baby's skin       A baby's skin is smooth and full in its normal state. If your baby drinks enough milk daily and ensures a good nutritional intake, then your baby will present a better skin condition. If you do not drink enough milk, resulting in insufficient intake of protein and fat, this will affect the condition of your baby's skin, such as the appearance of wrinkles. 3.Does your baby cry continuously Babies who are hungry cry very easily. So if your baby is crying more than usual, it may be due to a lack of milk, but it is important not to "feed by crying", but to judge how often your baby feeds. If your baby is hungry and cries quickly and starts to gurgle when you get a bottle, then it is a sign that your baby has not had enough milk at the last feeding and needs to be fed more.

Types of childhood eczema     · Atopic dermatitis     Frequently, children with atopic dermatitis also have asthma and hay fever, a combination sometimes known as the “atopic triad.” The rash from atopic dermatitis can be lighter or darker than normal skin color, and it often forms at the creases of elbows and knees.     · Contact dermatitis     As the name implies, contact dermatitis results when a substance touches your child’s skin. There are two subtypes. Allergic contact dermatitis triggers an immune system response, while irritant contact dermatitis immediately affects the skin. A rash from contact dermatitis may produce itchy bumps called hives, and skin in the area can become thick and scaly.      · Seborrheic dermatitis     Also known as “cradle cap,” seborrheic dermatitis affects areas of the skin with lots of sebaceous glands that produce the skin oils that provide a protective layer on the skin. The back, nose, and scalp are the most commonly affected areas, but it can also form lower on the face, in the diaper area, and in various folds around a baby’s body. Skin rashes include a yellow crust along with red skin, or there may be white or yellow flakes. Cradle cap usually vanishes around the age of six months, but dandruff might continue even into adulthood.      · Dyshidrotic eczema     Blisters on the soles of the feet and palms of the hands identify dyshidrotic eczema. These blisters can be itchy, and large blisters occasionally form, which are often more painful. After the blisters pass, affected skin can feel dry and spongy. This skin condition seems to be connected to seasonal allergies. Children can develop this type of eczema, but it’s usually more common in adults, with women affected more often than men.  Causes of baby eczema Skin is not moisturized enough: baby's skin stratum corneum is weak, the skin barrier function is not yet developed, can not lock moisture, if not enough moisturizing is easy to trigger eczema, to apply baby cream in time. Eczema from wearing too much:Overdressing your baby can cause symptoms such as redness, pimples and itching. Try to avoid dressing your child in thick clothing and dress your child appropriately for the weather. Other factors:Eczema is easily triggered when external irritants such as dust, pollen, smoke, mites and sweat come into contact with your baby's delicate skin, or when new toys and clothes carry bacteria that make your baby's skin irritated. How to treat baby's eczema Daily bathing and moisturizing is key to treating baby (infantile) eczema (atopic dermatitis). Use a mild cleanser and warm water. After a bath of no more than 15 minutes, rinse completely, gently pat your baby dry and apply a fragrance-free cream or ointment such as petroleum jelly, while the skin is still damp. Moisturize at least twice a day, perhaps at diaper changes. When trying a new moisturizer, test it on a small area of the child's skin first to make sure it's well-tolerated. Baby eczema signs and symptoms may also be eased by avoiding irritants — such as itchy fabric and harsh soaps — as well as extremes in temperature. To prevent your child's scratching the rash, it may help to keep your baby's nails clipped short or to put on cotton mittens during sleep. Have your baby examined if the condition persists or the rash is purple, crusty and weepy or has blisters. A child who has a fever and rash may also need evaluation. Talk with your doctor about using a medicated cream or ointment or trying bleach baths to ease symptoms. Use medications and bleach baths with the guidance of your pediatrician.

Growth is an essential aspect of every child's life. As parents, we want our children to grow healthy and strong. Here are three major helpers for children's growth: 1. Good Sleep Getting enough sleep is crucial for children's growth. Here are some tips for ensuring your child has a good night's sleep: It is recommended to go to bed before 9:00 pm and wake up at 6:30 am Allow your child to have their own bed and room after the age of three Keep the sleeping environment dark, and avoid using night lights Tip: The peak time for growth hormone secretion is around 10:00 pm. Therefore, it is recommended that children go to bed around 9:00 pm and enter deep sleep by 10:00 pm. 2. Proper Exercise Regular exercise is necessary for children's growth. Here are some tips for ensuring your child gets enough exercise: Exercise in the morning before meals or half an hour to an hour after meals Avoid high-intensity exercise, especially for children and teenagers Follow the standard of low-intensity, long-duration, and uninterrupted exercise Tip: Keep a happy mood during exercise, wear appropriate shoes, and avoid hindering bone growth and development. 3. Balanced Diet A balanced diet is essential for children's growth. Here are some tips for ensuring your child gets the right nutrients: Protein is the foundation of life and should not be overlooked Minerals, such as calcium and iron, are crucial for bone development Fatty acids should be supplemented in moderation, and natural sources are preferred Tip: If your child is a picky eater, consider adding infant nutritional supplements to promote their growth. Some common foods that promote growth include tofu, milk, spinach, shrimp, nuts, and sesame. In conclusion, good sleep, proper exercise, and a balanced diet are the three major helpers for children's growth. As parents, we need to pay attention to these three aspects to ensure our children grow healthy and strong.

As parents, it's essential to pay close attention to your baby's health and nutritional needs. Here are five signs that indicate it may be time to change your baby's formula: 1. Your baby has suddenly stopped drinking milk, and their consumption has significantly decreased. If your baby doesn't like the taste of the formula or is lactose intolerant, it can lead to a decrease in milk consumption. Be sure to observe whether there is a strange taste in the formula and consider switching to a different formula that suits your baby's needs. 2. Your baby's height and weight are not up to standard compared to other babies of the same age. While genetics and other factors may play a role, it's important to consider whether your baby's formula provides adequate nutrition. Short-term malnutrition caused by formula milk can have a significant impact on your baby's growth and development. 3. If your baby experiences diarrhea three to five times a day or more after consuming formula milk, it could be a sign of lactose intolerance. To address this issue, parents should consider promptly switching to a low-lactose formula or seeking medical help. In this case, parental attention and timely response are crucial. 4. When a baby experiences prolonged bowel movements or constipation, such as starting to have stools after more than three days and having dry and hard stool, it is important to consider whether the constipation is caused by drinking formula or the baby's poor digestion and absorption of the fatty ingredients in the formula. 5. Dry heaving and vomiting for no apparent reason can be a sign of excessive air inhalation during feeding, food accumulation in the baby, an underdeveloped sphincter, or formula allergy. If you suspect an allergy, look for signs of diarrhea, which typically accompany formula allergies. Remember, every baby is unique, and it's essential to detect and resolve any potential nutritional or health issues early on. If you notice any of these signs, it's crucial to consult with a medical professional and consider switching to a different formula that meets your baby's needs.

0-6 months According to the World Health Organization, breast milk already provides adequate dietary calcium for infants, and the calcium content of formula is based on breast milk as a reference, so there is no need to be concerned about calcium deficiency in babies who drink breast milk normally from 0-6 months of age. Premature babies are unique, and the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends calcium and phosphorus supplements, as well as special supplements designed for premature babies, in addition to vitamin D supplements. 7-12 months The calcium intake recommendation for babies this age is 250 mg per day, a slight increase from 0-6 months.   The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that babies at this age be fed primarily breast milk or formula, with a reasonable mix of cereals, vegetables, meat, yogurt, juice, and other supplements. Calcium is found in yogurt and low-oxalate cabbage, broccoli, and kale, and these foods can easily meet the calcium intake target. Over 1 year old You should make sure your child's milk intake to 400-600mL per day for children aged 1-3 years old and 300-600mL per day for children aged 3 and up. Then focus on eating tofu, eggs, vegetables, meat, and so on. Some parents may find it difficult to calculate their child's daily diet: how much of this to consume, and whether that consumption is sufficient. They believe that taking calcium supplements directly is preferable. However, a well-matched supplement for your child will provide not only calcium but also other nutrients that promote your child's development and good habits of a balanced diet.

Taboo 1: Formula and medicine taken together   When the baby is sick, the baby does not want to take medicine, so parents come up with a good way, that is, let the baby drink formula together with the medicine. But formula will directly reduce the medicinal properties, thus affecting the recovery of the baby's condition. It is best to take medicine with warm water, do not use formula, honey water, and other water instead of warm water. Taboo 2: Formula change too often Some mothers change formula because they see that their babies are not growing or their stools are green, not knowing that changing formula can have a great impact on the baby. Changing the formula in the early stages will make the intake reduced, triggering indigestion, and sometimes causing vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and other symptoms. It is also important to avoid the practice of changing formulas just because some mothers have heard that a certain formula is good. In addition to changing formulas, because your baby is allergic to a particular one, the most important thing is to stick to feeding the same formulas. Taboo 3: Mixing several formulas for a long time Parents are overly concerned about the safety of formulas or focus too much on the concept of nutritional complementarity, lack trust in a single formula, are afraid to insist on eating the same brand of formulas, worried that if the formulas have quality problems, the baby is vulnerable. They think that if they eat several formulas at the same time, it is less likely that there will be problems with quality, so they give their babies several formulas at the same time, thinking that this will share the risk and is good for them. However, different formulas have slightly different nutritional compositions, protein, fat structure, mineral content, etc. There is an adaptation period for the baby's intestines, and mixing several formulas is not good for the baby's intestinal development and digestion, especially when the baby is small and the intestines are more fragile. If parents are not sure about the formula for babies, it is recommended to choose a reliable brand with a high reputation, and then consider switching to another formula after five or six months of consumption.

Change number one: eat more staple foods. After the child is one year old, staple food and vegetables are the main meals, so give your child three meals a day of staple food and vegetables, and just make sure 400-600ml of milk is consumed every day, and eat staple food and vegetables the rest of the time.Try to vary the child's daily diet because different foods can provide different nutrition! Change number two: add a small amount of salt to your child's food. After the first year, parents can add a pinch of salt to their child's food. If the child can eat food without salt, you can skip the salt for a while. Because natural food contains a lot of sodium, it is especially important for children to eat some seafood, such as oysters, nori, and seaweed. Change number three: allow children to learn to eat on their own. Children must eat independently. Children learn to eat on their own so that they can know how much they need to eat at each meal, to avoid children eating too much or not enough, resulting in malnutrition, and to avoid picky anorexia in children! Allow your child to eat on his or her own and don't be concerned about him or her getting dirty. In exchange for the child soiled clothes, the child will eat by themselves, as well as exercise the child's fine motor skills and aid in the child's brain development.

Many mothers believe that the finer the complementary foods, the easier it is for the baby to digest, and it is also good for improving the digestive ability to improve. But this is not the case. First of all, it is not conducive to the improvement of digestive ability. The particle size of complementary food should be added from fine to coarse according to the age of the month, juice → paste → minced → lumps. Too fine food can not exercise the baby's gastrointestinal tract digestive ability, long-term eating too fine food baby easy to constipation. Secondly, it is not conducive to the exercise of chewing ability. Some babies start eating crumbly food only when they are 1 year old, but once they eat such food, they dry vomit and refuse to eat. Because the early complementary food is too delicate, chewing ability is poor, and swallowing is also affected. And finally, it is not good for language development. Other babies are able to say short sentences, why not your own child? Think about whether your own complementary food has been made very fine. When babies chew, they can promote the development of the oral sphincter. The development of the oral sphincter will affect the baby's language development. The more developed the sphincter is, the more accurate the baby's pronunciation will be, and the earlier he or she will be able to clearly express his or her wishes in language.
