First, gather all the supplies you need. Make sure you have a new, clean nappy, wipes and rash ointment if needed.

Wash your hands and lay the baby on the changing surface with your supplies nearby. You may want to have a rattle or toy handy to entertain the baby in case he or she begins to fuss.

Unfasten the soiled diaper and dispose of it. Then, carefully lift the baby’s ankles to allow easy access while cleaning. Gently cleanse the baby from front to back. Wiping this way will ensure that dangerous bacteria will not infect your baby’s urinary tract. If the mess is too great to clean with just wipes, you may use a gentle soap specifically formulated for a baby’s sensitive skin. Most of the time this will be unnecessary and wipes will do the job well.

After ensuring that your baby’s skin is clean, apply a thin layer of ointment or petroleum jelly to prevent your baby from getting a rash. Rashes are common when a nappy is wet or too tight. Small red bumps may appear, but applying cream or jelly will soothe your baby’s skin and prevent future rashes from developing.

Place an open, clean nappy under your baby’s bottom and carefully lower him or her onto the lower half. Gently lift the top portion between the baby’s legs and secure. Some nappies use tapes that secure the sides together, others use safety pins. Always follow the manufacturer’s suggestions. Make sure the nappy is tight enough to prevent leaks but loose enough to keep your baby comfortable.

Be sure to put all nappy change supplies back in a secure holding place when you are finished. Wash your hands again and enjoy having a clean, dry baby for a few hours until nature strikes again!

It is likely that, as it increases the time parents spend with their child and progresses the child’s ability to interact with them, prolactin and oxytocin increase in women and men to respond to the needs of newcomer the world, said Dr Feldman.

What happens
When parents have their small arms, your body increases production of oxytocin and prolactin, which act on the amygdala, associated with emotions, and helps establish the emotional relationship, which influences their feelings and thoughts about the baby.

The study
For their research, the neurologist Ruth Feldman found hormone levels of 43 parents during the six months following the birth of children, during which time they discussed their ability to reassure them, play with them and understand their needs, which was greater in those with higher hormone levels.

In most cases
Many parents are disinterested in parenting until they have the baby in her arms and undergo a change in sentiment, that is, have an unexpected emotional storm.

Hormonal
The increase of oxytocin when parents experience the first birth is even higher, although both parents react differently compared to those hormonal urges: mothers develop a greater sense of protection, while men are more predisposed to play with the new baby.

It has been found that when children come to within a couple, hormones not only revolutionize the mother’s body. Also affect those of the father, although this has not been in her womb the infant.

Maria Esther de la Paz, Ph.D., an expert in natural medicine, explains that the changes in moods, which range from sadness, apathy and euphoria, alterations in sleep and eating habits.

Weight gain, fluid retention, and swings in body temperature and sweating, are some common symptoms characterized by fluctuations in the functioning of the body and mind.

This occurs in women during pregnancy and after childbirth because their endocrine glands release a cascade of hormonal substances in your bloodstream, says the doctor, who notes that during pregnancy and the immediate aftermath of them suffer from oscillations Biological rhythms and physiological functions such as digestion and bowel activity.

However, hormones can play good and bad passes not only the mother but the father, according to research from the universities of Yale (USA) and Bar-Ilan (Israel), coordinated by Ruth Feldman neurologist , which reveals that the brains of men something very similar to what happens in women when a child comes into the world.

It is common for expectant mothers suffering from gum to tooth decay and extractions during pregnancy or shortly thereafter. This is NOT “normal” can and should be prevented. NO unborn kid does a tooth. DO NOT remove calcium from the mother’s teeth.

Three factors contribute to this erroneous thinking:

First, there are hormonal changes that predispose to diseases of the gums, but inconclusive.

Second, pregnant women tend to eat more food more often and sweet treats. This is what causes tooth decay by the time they are those sugars in the mouth and not the alleged deprivation of calcium.

If the pregnancy is planned or in the earliest times, consult your dentist to take all preventive measures directed. Care must be care of personal oral hygiene.

If for lack of prevention estuvieranmuy swollen gums, may agree to wait at the end of pregnancy because the situation is improving, not cure, past the hormonal changes.
