TRAVELING WITH YOUR BABY

Packing For A Healthy Trip

   Whether visiting parks or out of town grandparents, American families love to travel. Still, it does require a lot of planning to keep babies healthy and comfortable while taking them on a trip.

   Some of the things you shouldn't leave home without:

   •A supply of baby food and diapers sufficient to get you where you're going and then some extra in case of delays.
   •First aid essentials such as basic wound care (antibiotic ointment, gauze, adhesive tape, etc.), first aid instructions, baby scissors, disposable ice pack.
   •Caldesene Medicated Powder. Since it's not always possible when traveling to change baby's diaper as frequently as you would like, the mild antimicrobial properties of Caldesene can help minimize the risk of diaper rash.
   •Your pediatrician's phone number. {Ask your host or hotel manager for local emergency numbers.)
   •Sun protection (hats and coverups; babies over six months can use sunscreen also).
   •Baby's favorite washable toys.
   •A bottle and/or pacifier to help ease ear discomfort during takeoffs and landings. An extra sweater or light blanket for warding off airplane chill.

How To Burp Baby

How To Burp Baby

1. Ask mother to show you how to hold the baby, and how to burp him.

2. What does mother want you to do if baby wakens in her absence? She may suggest you pick the baby up for a few minutes, or perhaps she will ask you to check the baby's needs, say a few comforting words and depart from the room.

3. When mother calls you to make the baby-sitting date, ask her if the baby is shy of strangers, as some six-month-old babies are likely to be. In that event, arrive at the house a little early and get acquainted with the little child before mother takes off.

     Very few mothers will ask a new babysitter to give baby a bath, but^f mother does ask you be sure you know where she keeps the baby powder, lotion, rottofl swabs, and oil, Nurse Odegard suggests. If baby is chapped or has a rash she may ask you to apply medication or soothing lotion, perhaps with cotton swabs, so 't is a good idea to get a preview of their application.

Core for ill baby

Is greatly appreciated

To the Editor:
   So often today, we read about the ways our health care system is failing, but we wanted to share our story about a health care system right here in Syracuse that held up under the microscope of our experience.
   On Feb. 12, our newborn baby stopped breathing. Thus began the most terrifying and exhausting days of our lives.
   From our call to 9-1 -1 to the follow-up care, everyone we encountered gave us faith in our health care system. It may be all in a day's work for those whose daily grind is saving lives, but their efforts made all the difference to us.

Child care safety tips

   We never like to leave our kids, but when we have to we want to make sure they are left in the best hands possible. When choosing a full time nanny or an occasional babysitter, consider the follow tips to ensure safety:

   1. If you are hiring someone you are not greatly familiar with, only hire someone with references you can check. If possible, hire someone with references you know (such as playmate’s sitter). Do your part to check the credibility and ability of the nanny or sitter. This is no place for on-thejob training! Ask the references provided a lot of questions, such as “What was the biggest crisis the sitter ever had to handle, and how did he/she handle it?” Even questions like “What are the sitter’s biggest strengths and weaknesses?” should be addressed.

The Womb : Episode 3 - The Umbilical Cord Connection

 The umbilical cord is the living link through which a mother feeds her baby and removes its waste. The cord also becomes the conduit of an ongoing exchange, a silent conversation, in which hormones from the mother
and the baby signal changes in each other’s bodies.
     The umbilical cord consists of three blood vessels—two umbilical arteries and one umbilical vein—embedded in slippery connective tissue called Wharton’s jelly. The arteries spiral around the vein, giving the cord the toughness of a cable. At one end of the cord is the baby; at the other is
the placenta.
     The baby’s heart pumps depleted blood out of its body through the umbilical arteries to the placenta, where the arteries divide into a network of tiny capillaries. The mother’s blood in the placenta forms a free-flowing, living five-ounce lake about the size of a glass of red wine. This blood is refreshed completely three or four times each minute to supply the baby’s needs. The replenished blood returns through the umbilical cord like a steady, unhindered river bringing the stuff of life to the fetus.

The Womb : Episode 2 - The Greenest Room on the Planet

The womb is an incredible piece of living engineering that provides an ideal environment for the amazing transformation that occurs during the forty weeks of gestation—a time when a baby’s brain is developing faster than at any time later in life, at one point making one hundred thousand new neural connections an hour.
     While growing and developing in this protected biosphere, your baby is intimately connected to the outside environment, including all the nutrients entering the womb, and the smells and sounds of the outer world, which have a lasting impact on her neurological, physical, mental, and anatomical development. These external influences provide you a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to give your baby a strong and healthy foundation on which to grow. In fact, at no other time in your child’s life will you have this degree of control over the way her environment influences her development.
     The most direct way you can affect the health of your baby before he is even born is by making smart decisions about what you eat, drink, and absorb (through your lungs and skin), as well as what you introduce into the womb in the way of smells and sounds.
     The swift passage of nutrients, protective proteins, and molecular messages through the umbilical cord from mother to baby offers the ideal opportunity to enrich your unborn baby’s room in the womb and to contribute to the health of the planet your baby will inherit. You can do this each day through your own careful intake of organic foods and healthful beverages. Bring on the green!

The Womb : Episode 1 - The Greenest Room on the Planet

    The first room your baby lives in is the pearshaped organ called the uterus, which we know as the nurturing womb—that safe enclosure in the mother’s body that separates the developing fetus from the outer world. In many ways, if you make the right choices, the womb can be the greenest room on the planet. The womb is a warm and comforting place where we have all been rocked, fed, and snuggled. It supplies with natural efficiency the food, water, oxygen, hormones, vitamins and minerals, and complex brew of neurological developmental messages needed by every baby to flourish in safety and good health.
