Leave soft toys in the crib
Small children do not know how to control their movements. This is why the toys you leave in the crib for decoration are very dangerous. The infant may suffocate if accidentally moves too close to toys.
Switching to mixes too quickly
Most moms don't know that breast milk appears on the 3rd day after delivery. Before that, colostrum is present in the breast. And only a few grams of it comes in. Young mothers are afraid that this amount of milk will not be enough for the child, and quickly switch to formula.
But in fact, a few drops are enough to eat and wait until the milk comes.

Rock the child
It happens that young mothers do not just rock the child, but shake him too much. Especially when the baby is crying. After such cases, many children end up in the hospital.
Think the child is asleep in motion
Riding a sleeping child in a stroller is not good for his health. When sleep occurs in motion, the human vestibular apparatus continues to work, and the brain does not rest.
Swaddling legs
A baby needs swaddling to feel comfortable after birth. In young children, there is such a Moro reflex - an involuntary throwing up of hands - which can wake up a baby in a dream.
