6. Burba baby

7. How to burb a baby: • When burping your baby, repeated gentle patting on your baby's back should do the trick — there's no need to pound hard. To prevent messy cleanups when your baby spits up or has a "wet burp," you might want to place a towel or bib under your baby's chin or on your shoulder.

8. How to breast feed Start by placing your nipple between your baby's upper lip and nose (higher than pictured here), then encourage her to open wide by gently brushing her upper lip with your nipple. Another option is to brush your baby's cheek with your nipple, which will cause her to turn toward it with her mouth open. When your baby is "rooting" (looking for the breast with her mouth open), pull her to your breast (rather than bringing your breast to her mouth).

9. As your baby latches on, you want her to get a big mouthful of breast tissue. The best way to do this is with an "asymmetric latch," which means that she gets more breast tissue on the underside of the areola, rather than an equal amount all around. • Your baby's lips should be opened wide around the breast. The best latch is one in which you don't feel any pain and your baby is getting milk. (Listen for the sound of your baby swallowing.) If latch-on hurts, break the suction – by inserting your little finger between your baby's gums and your breast – and try again.

10. As your baby nurses contentedly, hold her close. You may also want to support your breast, especially if your breasts are large.

11. Getting comfortable with breastfeeding takes time – for you and your baby. Don't be discouraged. Once you and your baby are in sync, breastfeeding can be a beautiful experience.

12. How to diaper a baby • The first step is to be prepared. Gather up a couple of diapers, wipes, ointments...anything you'd need to change the baby. For safety reasons you don't want to be searching for something with a wiggly baby waiting for you. I also always open a wipe or two and have it unfolded and laid out ready to use. • Gathering your diapering supplies • Grasp the baby's ankles and gently lift their bottom up and begin to wash their bottom with the wipes. If the area is heavily soiled you can use the front part of the old diaper to remove part of the mess. As you finish with each wipe, gently place in under the baby (clean side up) for easier clean up. When the baby's skin is clean pull the diaper and wipes out from under baby and set it aside.

13. Lay the baby down • Most people have a specific area to change baby. This can be a changing table or changing pad. If you have a table, be sure to use the strap for baby's safety. Never leave baby unattended while changing him or her. Unfasten the old diaper, but don't pull it out from under the baby yet. This allows for some margin of safety in case the cold air inspires baby to let go. • Hold on to the baby • Grasp the baby's ankles and gently lift their bottom up and begin to wash their bottom with the wipes. If the area is heavily soiled you can use the front part of the old diaper to remove part of the mess. As you finish with each wipe, gently place in under the baby (clean side up) for easier clean up. When the baby's skin is clean pull the diaper and wipes out from under baby and set it aside.

14. Fresh and clean the baby • Place the new, clean diaper under baby and secure the fasteners. If your still have a newborn, you might need to fold down the top of the diaper to make room from the umbilical cord. Don't be afraid to pull the diaper on snuggly. If you have it on too loosely... Well, you can imagine the mess that makes!

15. Clean up • After putting baby's clothes back on, take the old diaper and use the fasteners to make it into a small ball, crisscrossing the fasteners. Place it in the diaper pail or trash. I always keep a container of liquid disinfectant near my changing table to use on my hands. Then I hand the baby off to someone else or lay her down and wash my hands at the sink.

16. Reflexes • An action that is performed as a response to a stimulus and without conscious thought

17. Rooting • A reflex that is seen in normal newborn babies, who automatically turn the face toward the stimulus and make sucking (rooting) motions with the mouth when the cheek or lip is touched. The rooting reflex helps to ensure successful breastfeeding.

18. Palmer grasp • To elicit the palmar grasp reflex, the examiner inserts his or her index finger into the palm of the infant from the ulnar side and applies light pressure to the palm, with the infant lying on a flat surface in the symmetrical supine position while awake.

19. Moro • a normal reflex of young infants; a sudden loud noise causes the child to stretch out the arms and flex the legs

20. Babinski • a reflex action of the toes, normal during infancy but abnormal after 12 to 18 months of age; after locomotion begins, it is indicative of abnormalities in the motor control pathways leading from the cerebral cortex and is widely used as a diagnostic aid in disorders of the central nervous system. It is elicited by a firm stimulus (usually scraping) on the sole of the foot, which results in dorsiflexion of the great toe and fanning of the smaller toes. Normally such a stimulus causes all the toes to bend downward.

21. Stepping • A reflex response of the newborn and young infant, characterized by alternating stepping movements with the legs, as in walking, elicited when the infant is held upright so that both soles touch a flat surface while the infant is moved forward to accompany any step taken.

22. Failure To Thrive(FTT) • FTT happens more with infants and toddler. symptoms include lack of weight gain and height growth as is typical of other infants and toddlers of the same age.

23. SIDS • Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) is one of the leading causes of death among infants one month through one year of age in the United States.

24. Gross motor toy • The baby is using his legs and arms to push the toy.

25. Fine motor • The baby can use his fingers.

26. Toy Self-awareness • Mirror

27. Anatomy of the brain

28. Frontal lobes • Where: • The frontal lobes are located in the anterior portion of the cerebral cortex. The frontal lobes are involved in several functions of the body including: • Motor Functions • Higher Order Functions • Planning • Reasoning • Judgment • Impulse Control • Memory

29. Parietal lobe • The function of parietal lobe is interpretation of the position of the body in accordance to the other objects in its surroundings. The functions is differs for the right parietal lobe and left parietal lobe. The right parietal lobe function includes interpretation of spatial information and regulation of ones personality. The left parietal lobe function includes the ability to understand numbers, manipulation of different objects and perform writing tasks. The parietal lobe is found under a bone called parietal bone. The parietal lobe location is sitting between the occipital lobe above it and behind the frontal lobe.

30. Temporal lobe • The temporal lobes are involved in several functions of the body including: Auditory Perception • Memory • Speech • Emotional Response • Visual Perception

31. Occipital lobe • The occipital lobe is located behind the parietal lobe, and it sits on top of the membrane that separates it from the cerebellum, which is below it. • The primary function of the occipital lobe is controlling vision and visual processing. The occipital lobe helps us see and identify different things that we look at.

32. Characteristics of Left brain • Responds to verbal instructions • Problem solves by logically and sequentially looking at the parts of things • Looks at differences • Is planned and structured • Prefers established, certain information • Prefers talking and writing • Prefers multiple choice tests • Controls feelings • Prefers ranked authority structures

33. Characteristics of the right brain • Responds to demonstrated instructions • Problem solves with hunches, looking for patterns and configurations • Looks at similarities • Is fluid and spontaneous • Prefers elusive, uncertain information • Prefers drawing and manipulating objects • Prefers open ended questions • Free with feelings • Prefers collegial authority structures
