Introduction

Name is the identification of human, mirror of his life, therefore is should be meaningful, sharp and spiritual. It is not an easy task, choosing the right and fit name for your child. Be careful in choosing a good name for your child, because it influences his or her entire character and lifestyle.

Modern age is the age of smart and extra-ordinary names. Help is in your hands. We have prepared this book by selected poetic, religious, ethnic, moral, natural and classic names for your beloved child.

To the new mother

Congratulations on your new baby. You must be overwhelmed, both with joy and a little anxiety too. Fortunately, you don’t have to depend entirely on your maternal instincts. Take as much advice and support as you can from your partner, family, friends and your pediatrician. Whether you are a new mum or your baby is approaching his toddler years, this Indica Baby Care Book has been designed to assist you on the many issues you’ll face while feeding your baby. Because, as you know, healthy eating habits learnt early will benefit your child for the rest of his life.

To the new father

Congratulations on your new baby. Being a new dad is as hard as being a new mum. It’s natural to feel a little helpless and even a little left out, since your partner’s attention is now completely focussed on the new member in the family. But the fact of the matter is that your role is equally important and you are appreciated.

Apart from helping with household chores, your partner will need you for emotional support. A new mum is always very vulnerable and some even feel tearful from time to time. Be around while your baby is being breast fed, give your baby a bath, change diapers. It’ll help you feel a part of the process and what’s more, give your partner the rest she needs.

Breastfeeding

Breastfeeding provides the best nutrition and protection from illness for your baby. Breast milk is provided in response to the stimulation of your baby sucking at your breast, so offer the breast as soon as possible after your baby’s birth to stimulate supply.

Immediately after delivery, your breast milk is yellowish and sticky. This milk is called colostrum, which is secreted during the first week of delivery. Colostrum is more nutritious than mature milk because it contains more protein, more anti-infective properties and higher levels of vitamin. A, which protect your baby from dangerous neo-natal infections. You must feed your baby Colostrum, do not give sugar water, honey water, butter or other concoctions.

For most infants, breast milk is all that is needed for the first 4 to 6 months. Mothers should continue to breastfeed after 6 months and then give other foods as well.

Growth Spurt

Experts agree that a baby should be fed when he is hungry or ‘on demand’. This is his only nourishment at this time and his needs fluctuate.

Sometimes your baby may want to feed more often than normal. The most likely reason is that he is going through a growth spurt, which seems to happen around 6 weeks and again at 3 months. Some mothers interpret this as having insufficient milk. The solution for that is simply more frequent feeding, which stimulates more milk production.

Why breast milk is best for your baby?

* Breast milk is a complete and balanced food and provides all the nutrients needed by the infant in the first few months of its birth.

* Breast milk has anti-infective properties that protect your baby from infections in the early months.

* Breast milk provides all the fluid that your baby needs. So, if he’s thirsty, all he needs is an extra breast feed.

* Breast milk is microbiologically clean and is always available at the right temperature.

* Breast feeding is much cheaper than feeding an infant milk substitute as the extra food needed by the mother is negligible compared to the cost of feeding infant substitute.

Why breast milk is best for mum

* Breastfeeding immediately after delivery enables the contraction of the womb and helps the mother to regain her figure quickly.

* Mothers who breastfeed usually have longer periods of infertility after child birth than non-lactators.

* For most women, breastfeeding is a satisfying, convenient and enjoyable experience that helps develop a strong bond with the baby.

* A mother can always change from breast to bottle feeding, but not the other way around.

Ensuring a good milk supply

Looking after you properly is the key to good milk supply. If you stay relaxed, eat well and drink enough fluids, you will have plenty of milk for your baby.

* Rest as much as you can, particularly during the first few weeks.

* Eat a well-balanced diet that is fairly rich in protein (milk, fresh fruits, vegetables, eggs meat, poultry and fish).

* Avoid highly refined carbohydrates (cakes, biscuits, sweets).

* Avoid spicy foods or any particular food which could affect your milk and upset your baby’s stomach.

Snippet: You know your baby is getting enough feeds when he wets at least 6 nappies a day.

The first bite-a guide to weaning

The word weaning comes from an old English word, wenian, meaning to accustom. Till 4 months breast milk is all your baby needs. Between 4 and 6 months your baby will be ready for solids in addition to breast milk. Solid foods should be introduced gradually as your baby’s digestive system is delicate and has not experienced anything other than breast milk.

How do you know when to start?

There are no hard and fast rules. The best person to advice you is your doctor, but here are some signs to look out for:

* Your baby can hold his head up and has good control.

* He leans forward when food approaches.

* He watches you eat and tries to grab some for himself.

* He chews on everything in sight.

* He wakes up frequently during the night and doesn’t sleep as well as he used to.

* If it isn’t the right time yet, your baby will push the food out with his tongue and not swallow at all.

Why are solids important?

—Breast milk alone is not adequate to meet the nutritional needs of your growing baby beyond 4-6 months of age.

* Food is necessary to provide more energy and essential iron. At birth your baby has a supply of iron in his liver, but by 4 to 6 months this begins to deplete, and while breast milk and formula are both good sources of iron, more is needed.

* By 6 months your baby’s digestive system is mature and he is ready to eat a range of foods.

Dangers of introducing food too early before 4 months

* Before 4 months your baby’s disestive tract is incapable of digesting and absorbing complex foods.

If solids are introduced too early, they’ll pass through largely undigested and put an increased strain on your baby’s immature kidneys.

* Your breast milk supply may start to reduce as you feed less frequently and you won’t get enough nipple stimulation for milk production. As a result of which, your baby may end up getting insufficient milk.

Dangers of delaying introducing solids-after 6 months

* Your baby may not be getting adequate nourishment to grow as he should.

* Your baby could suffer from anaemia due to an insufficient intake of iron.

* Your baby will be prone to infections because he is not getting enough iron and energy. This may also make him tired and lethargic.

* Your baby will miss out on essential vitamins and minerals necessary for normal growth and development.

How to start solids

* Begin by giving your baby his usual breast feed and then introduce a spoon to his mouth so he can gradually suck the contents.

* Start at a time of the day when you are feeling relaxed and have plenty of time.

* Begin with solids when your baby is happy and content.

* The first food you offer should be of a smooth consistency. Start with a single grain cereal like Rice.

* In subsequent feeds, slowly increase the quantity as your little one gets used to a particular food.

* When you introduce new foods, try one new food at a time. Watch out for reactions like rasthes, diarrhoea, discomfort and irritability.

* Watch out for the signs your babyis giving. When your baby is hungry, he’ll appear excited and lean eagerly towards the food. If he isn’t, he’ll shut his mouth and turn his head away.

* Don’t force feed your baby, give him time to get used to each food. If he doesn’t like somthing, try again after a few days. And if he still doesn’t like it, respect his wishes and find a substitute.

Foods to introduce at 4-6 months

* Porridge made with rice, suji, wheat flour.

* Cooked, pureed and strained vegetables like carrots, potatoes, peas, pumpkin, and sweet potato.

* Mashed fruits - banana, chickoo (without skin), papaya, mango, peeled and cooked apples, pears, peach and apricot.

* Diluted fruit juice e.g. apple juice.

6 - 9 months

At 6 months, breast milk continues to be an important part of your baby’s diet. Your baby is now growing fast. You may notice that he now puts things in his mouth, responds to his name and has started to crawl. More importantly, your baby is ready for different tastes and textures and may even begin to eat on his own. Encourage this with suitable soft cooked foods such as carrots, tomatoes bananas and apple. Don’t worry if he doesn’t have teeth at this stage, he will be able to chew quite well with his gums.

Chewing is very important for your baby’s development and helps jaw, teeth and speech development later on. It might take a few days before your baby can manage lumpy food, so roughly mash any lumps until he learns to chew better.

Foods to introduce at 6 - 9 months

* Mixed cereals, Dalia, kheer, bread soaked in milk, roti soaked in dal or milk, mashed rice with dal or curds or milk, mashed khichri.

* Different varieties of fruits and vegetables.

* —Pureed or finely minced meat, chicken, fish.

* Well-cooked egg yolk.

* Mashed or pureed beans, dals.

* Grated cheese, curds, custard.

* Rusks, toasted bread, crisp roti to nibble on.

* Family foods can be mashed or blended to a texture containing soft lumps, though meat, fish and chicken should be pureed.

Choking

There are number of foods you should keep out of your baby’s menu because they could get caught in his throat. Don’t give him raw carrots or raw apples, infact be very careful with all raw vegetables and fruits. If in doubt, just lightly cook the vegetables or mash the fruits. Avoid nuts, candies and popcorns.

Never leave your baby alone when he is eating. If someone comes to the door or the phone rings, take him with you. Remember that a baby who is choking makes very little noise because his airway is blocked. You may not hear him.

9 - 12 months

By this age, your baby starts experiencing many new things. He can crawl, sit and can pick up small objects. He points at things and understands no.

Breast milk is still an important part of his diet but you can now introduce him to a wider variety of foods. Give him lots of tastes and textures. Start encouraging him to eat by himself, just ignore the mess-it important for his development. And remember, do not leave him alone when he is eating.

Keep mealtimes happy. Don’t force feed and let your baby eat according to his appetite. If he refuses a meal, try not to let your anxiety show. A baby receives his nourishment over a period of days - so a light meal here and there will do no harm.

Foods to introduce at 9 - 12 months

* Cooked, soft vegetable pieces like carrots and beans.

* Pieces of banana, pear, and seedless fruits.

* Pieces of cheese.

* Dried, toasted, unsalted crackers.

* Whole egg - scrambled, poached or boiled.

* Khichri with small chunks of cooked, seedless and peeled fruits like apples, pears, chickoo, bananas and mangoes.

1 - 3 years

Your baby is now a toddler and he may still be enjoying breast feeding. Now, you can also add a cup of unmodified cow’s milk to his diet.

By this age, he should be used to eating a variety of foods. This ensures lifelong good eating habits and that your baby receives a nutritionally balanced diet. You may introduce chunkier foods as long as the pieces are not too big for baby to chew and swallow.

As your baby grows into a young child, his appetite will fluctuate and he might not eat as much as he used to. This may worry you and even make you feel gulity, but don’t fall into the trap of bribing him with only his favourite foods. Because that’s how a young child learns to manipulate his parents to give him only what he demands, thereby restricting his menu. Here are a few tips for times like this:

* Make sure your child is not drinking excessive amounts of milk or juice.

* Offer very small serves of food on the plate.

* Encourage your child to eat by himself.

* Set a regular mealtime. Keep mealtime calm and turn off the TV or radio.

* Some children can learn very early to refuse food at mealtimes - then 10 minutes later they want their favourite food. If your child refuses to eat, remove the foods quietly and do not allow your child to eat until the next meal or snack time. It is best not to allow bad eating habits to start. Remember, fussy eaters never starve.

* Toddlers and young children need small amounts of food throughout the day. Healthy snacks are important as meals. However, avoid excess of foods that contain too much added fat, sugar or salt. Examples are: fried foods such as French fries and home fries, iced cakes and iced cookies, sugar coated cereal, flavoured or soft drinks, chocolate, potato chips and other snack foods.

Record your baby’s teething pattern by writing the date when each tooth appears, in the space provided.

The Tooth of the problem

For most babies, the teeth start coming at about 5 - 7 months and usually 20 teeth are through by the age of 3 years. Very occasionally babies are born with one or two teeth already through.

Teething

Your baby’s teeth are already formed at birth. As the teeth start appearing they may cause some discomfort to your little one. This discomfort is reflected in slightly inflamed gums, increased drooling and the desire to chew on things. Here’s our advice to parents:

* Wipe your baby’s face often with a cloth to remove the drool. This prevents rashes from developing.

* Give your baby somthing hard to chew on. Make sure it’s big enough so that he can’t swallow it. A wet washcloth placed in the freezer for 30 minutes makes a handy teething aid - just be sure to wsh it after each use. Teething rings are also good, but avoid the ones with liquid inside. If they break, the liquid may not be safe.

* Teething, as a rule, does not cause high fever, diarrhoea or sleep problems. If your baby does develop a fever during the teething phase, it is probably due to something else and your child’s doctor should be contacted.

Tooth care

Teeth cleaning should start as soon as teeth appear. Use a soft cloth at first and introduce a soft toothbrush later on. Children need help with cleaning their teeth until 7 years of age. Record your baby’s teething pattern by writing the date when each tooth appears in the space provided.

Babies who fall asleep while drinking from their bottle fun the risk of tooth decay (known as as bottle feeding caries). This is because the child still has milk in his mouth which pools around the teeth. Milk contains sugar which ferments in the mouth producing acid and causing decay. Fruit juices and other sugary fluids can also cause decay. To avoid these problems, it is best to make your baby drink from a cup and clean his teeth regularly.

Dealing with a cry baby

There are many reasons why your baby could be crying. Usually it’s because something is wrong. By learning to interpret your baby’s signals and responding promptly, you can help your baby become confident and happy. Here are a few signs to look out for:

Hunger : For a young baby, hunger is a new and unpleasant sensation. Try breast feeding. Even if he’s not hungry, the sucking will comfort him.

Need for contact: Babies sometimes cry when they can’t see their parents. Pick up your baby. Being held might be all that he needs.

Discomfort: Clothes which pull or
