REMEMBER THIS, MOMMIES!

Let's know this new moms! Growth of a one-month-old baby

One month after birth, the baby's facial expressions have become richer, and he has gradually become accustomed to life that matches the pace of breastfeeding and sleeping. Even babies who have just slept will gradually get up longer. This time, I would like to introduce the growth of a one-month-old baby.

Estimated height and weight of a one-month-old baby (for Japanese)

● Boys... Height 50.9-59.6cm Weight 3.6-6.0kg● Girls... Height 50.0-58.4cm Weight 3.4-5.5kgAlthough there are differences depending on gender and country, it seems that they often gain about 1,000 grams from birth. Height and weight at birth are different, so it's a good idea to make sure that your growth over the past month is in line with your growth curve. For example, between the first month of life and the second month of life, the standard pace is to gain 1 kilogram, or about 30 grams a day. Subcutaneous fat begins to attach to the body, and the body becomes rounded.

Growth of a one-month-old baby

At the age of one month, babies are able to make various movements and facial expressions. From here, let's take a look at the growth of the four babies, including facial expressions, behaviors, and lifestyle characteristics during this period.

1. Stare, follow the movement

In the first month of life, you will be able to follow moving objects with your eyes and stare at the person talking to you. Also, it seems that the movement of the eyes develops if you slowly shake and move the toy that makes a sound in front of the baby during dandle.

2. Thrash one's arms and legs about

After the first month of life, motor function develops, and you will be able to flap your limbs. Many babies express their feelings with this movement, and when they are happy or in a good mood, they often make a smile and flutter their limbs. Some babies will move their necks or try to wake them up just before two months of further growth.

3. Cooing

Some babies begin to cool, speaking babblings such as "ah" and "uh". Some babies talk hard to the adults around them, so let's reply with "ah" or "uh" in the same way.

4. Stay awake longer

Around one month, I spend more and more time waking up than when I was a newborn baby. Although there are individual differences, the number of people who sleep together for 4 to 5 hours is increasing, and they gradually get closer to the daily rhythm of moms and dads. Some babies have difficulty sleeping, but sleep time varies from person to person as well as growth rate. Let's watch over so as not to worry too much.

Breastfeeding interval for one month old baby

Compared to when I was born, I have more power to drink and I can drink more breast milk and milk. There are individual differences in the amount of milk you drink and the interval between feedings, but as a guide, breast milk should be taken every 2 hours at least 10 times a day, and milk should be taken every 4 hours 6 times a day.In the case of mixed breastfeeding with milk and breast milk, wait 2 hours after breastfeeding, then give milk, or if breastfeeding is poor, give breast milk for 10 minutes each and then supplement with milk, then Breastfeeding should be adjusted in about 3 hours while watching the baby's condition. Breast milk digests and absorbs faster than milk, so the interval between breastfeeding is shorter.

One month old baby may have constipation

After the first month of life, the poop (poo) becomes less watery. The poop of babies who drink powdered milk is hard, and the poop of babies who drink only breast milk is yellowish or greenish and soft.The rhythm of poop varies from baby to baby, so even if you get out every 1-2 days, don't worry if you drink a lot of milk or milk and the poop comes out smoothly. However, if you do not have poop for 3 to 5 days or more, you may have constipation. Help encourage defecation by warming your stomach and massaging your stomach when you take a bath. Talk to your pediatrician if it lasts longer.When a baby is one month old after the newborn period, various changes occur in daily life. I think it's hard because it's full of things for the first time, but once it's over, it's time flies. Please take a lot of skin-ships and enjoy your life with your baby only during this time.
