Lamb is a bit abnormal lately and always likes to start the head...
He raises his little meaty hand and hits his forehead frantically, without knowing it hurts at all, as if he was hitting someone else... Lamb While he was playing, he also laughed. I wanted to stop him, but he was better. The more he fought, the more vigorous he was.
After a while, snap, another palm! It looks so fun!
I wonder if your baby has this situation? My classmate Xiaoyang always likes to abuse herself like this recently.
As a mother, I am a little worried. I can't help but have three consecutive questions in my mind: student, what's wrong with Xiaoyang? What's the excitement? What can I do to stop him from hitting himself?
With a learning attitude, I read a lot of information and finally found the reason why the lamb loves to start, and share it with you who have the same problem.
About 20% of babies will have "self-abuse" behaviors in infants and toddlers, starting at 6-12 months, they will have first-class behaviors, peaking at the age of 1 and a half to 2 years old, most of them will be 3-4 years old Time disappears.
[Heart]Common causes of baby self-abuse [Heart]
I feel stimulating and fun
Baby loves to play by nature, he can treat everything like paper boxes as toys, books, books Son and so on. For an item that our adults started to be normal, he can find many novel and fun things from it.
Of course, hitting yourself is also a very fun thing. When he played for the first time, he found it very exciting and fun. After experiencing the fun of it, I can't stop. Therefore, when your baby is playing and smiling at you at the same time, parents should not worry too much.
I want my parents to pay more attention
The baby always wants to be with my parents all the time,Play with them, laugh with them, play with them. As soon as I noticed that my parents were not nearby, I ran to the front and tried every means to get my parents' attention. The first time I tried to start, it was just inadvertently, but when they saw their parents rushing to them in a panic, they started to connect. So a great idea was born! That's the beginning! You will find that when they fight, their faces are still smiling. Since it was discovered that this method can attract parents' attention, it has been used more unscrupulously later. I have to say, the baby now is really too smart!
Too happy, too excited
The child is amazing, always full of energy and emotional, he doesn't seem to feel tired. Even if you are too tired to fall asleep, you never show that you are tired. Every day I run violently, like perpetual motion machine . High-pitched emotions can't be fully released, so use the head to vent it. Moreover, the beginning is exciting and fun, parents will be surprised, why not? But I have to say to my parents that if this is the reason, take your baby out more and let the baby's passion be fully released.
Uncomfortable during teething
Babies aged 1 and above are in teething period, gums are swollen, itchy and uncomfortable during teething, most of the babies at this time cannot speak and express . He wanted to make himself more comfortable by heading the head. As parents, we may think this behavior is excessive, but for children, it is quite normal. Recently, classmate Xiaoyang had a few teeth, and he was not in a good mood. He was irritable, crying, unable to sleep well at night, and often nodded. As parents, we have to understand this behavior of children.
[心] What are we going to do? [Heart]
1. Let him fight first,Otherwise, the more you fight, the more fierce you are.
Parents must first calm down and realize that this is a normal developmental behavior. Don't make a fuss, let the children find it particularly interesting to start. Don't even try to hold the baby's hand to stop him, he will hold this hand and put on the other hand. It's okay, let the baby fight first, but there is a prerequisite, don't let the baby get hurt. Some babies like to hit themselves with toys and use whatever they have in their hands. Some metal or hard toys are easy to hurt the baby, parents must take good care of their children.
2. Play more with, play more games, and distract your attention
Accompanying is the most common confession. This sentence applies not only to couples, but also to children. Play with your baby and play games with your baby. Especially if parents notice this kind of self-abuse behavior, they should accompany the baby more.
Classmate Xiaoyang likes playing football with me the most. As soon as I see him hitting himself, I quickly tell him, Xiaoyang, how about your ball? Let's play ball! Sometimes I would ask him, where is the little squirrel? Where is the giraffe? He will run to these little animals and use his little finger where they are.
Here I recommend a book "American Golden Baby Early Childhood Game (1-3 Years)", which is a game recommended for parent-child interaction based on the age of the baby. The most important thing is that you don't need to buy any special toys. They use simple items common at home to play games, such as bed sheets, water cups, and sinks. If you don’t know what games to play with your children, after reading this book, I believe you will no longer worry about playing games with your children.
3. If the body is really uncomfortable, see a doctor as soon as possible
Some babies frequently head their heads and may be uncomfortable, such as headaches, otitis media, autism_ span26span and so on.Parents should carefully observe the child's mental state and facial expressions. If the child is uncomfortable or the phenomenon persists, then don't wait any longer. Take the child to see a doctor as soon as possible. The doctor will give more professional advice. But relax, these are still small probability events.
Companionship is the best love for your baby. It can resist all the hardships in the world and warm all the years of life.
I am a lamb mother, and I have a baby of 1 year and 2 months +. I will share the problems that my child has encountered during the growth process, and learn to be a better mother together!
