To help the Caesareans, massage the back of their heads, build houses with them and wrap them in a blanket.
The child assigns his birthday himself. With the help of certain hormones he gives the mother's body a signal "it's time". When caesarean section no one asks the kid if he is ready to "go out." This could harm his health. Let's figure out how and how to fix the consequences of an emergency birth. There are five main ways.
Method 1. Swim in salt water
Two weeks before giving birth, the child descends into the mother's pelvis, and is there in a twisted position. Thanks to "yoga" during childbirth, the baby will unwind like a spring. This will speed up and facilitate his “going out”. With a caesarean section, the child does not unwind and the muscles remain tight. Hence - hypertonicity, imbalance in the work of the autonomic nervous system and all disorders associated with it. These are: deterioration of blood circulation, stress not on the heart, indigestion, vulnerability of the respiratory system to acute respiratory viral infections and increased excitability.
To reduce the effects of a caesarean section, knead your child's back several times a day. Required massage shoulders, neck and back of the head, since the head and these areas of the spine were to become the "locomotive" of the promotion.
Give your baby a 1 tsp salt bath every day. l. for 1 liter of water. In composition, the water will be similar to amniotic fluid, which will enhance the effect of unloading the spine and relaxing the muscles.

Method 2. When changing clothes, do passive exercises.
Before childbirth, the level of hormones that trigger breathing increases in the baby's body. Kesarenka was not given time to accumulate these substances. Therefore, now his lungs require additional ventilation. For a couple of minutes, every time you change clothes or change a diaper, take the baby's handles to the sides, press them to his chest, put them in a criss-cross pattern: the left handle - to the right, the right - to the left.
Let the older children inflate balloons every day: more often and more.
Method 3. Swing the baby in the blanket
Caesarians can crawl and go earlier than their peers. Indeed, in their subconsciousness, because of their unexpected escape from the comfort zone, the “faster” attitude has settled down. Therefore, another consequence of a cesarean section is hyperactivity, and as a result - impaired concentration, hectic, fatigue, anxiety.
You can give the cesarean a stay in the womb by shaking it in a hammock. Option - wrap the baby in a blanket and wiggle. Build houses with your child more often - let him hide and play in them. You can - with tunnels. Crawling along them, the cesarean will gain the experience of passing through the birth canal. A similar effect will be from playing in tunnels in playgrounds.
Method 4. Let the kid draw with his fingers
Oxygen starvation in the womb, or the risk of it occurring during natural childbirth, are usually the reasons for using a caesarean section. Therefore, in a cesarean, brain cells are often affected or under-formed to one degree or another. Therefore, such a baby needs stimulation of fine motor skills - it helps the formation of neural connections. To do this, knead your little fingers, you can massage with balls with soft spikes. For older children, let's sort out cereals and paint with finger paints.

Method 5. Develop communicability in the Caesarian
With an emergency appearance in the baby's blood, there is not enough oxytocin (the hormone of relaxation and joy), there is a lack erythrocytes, in the lungs - fluid residues (making breathing difficult), the vessels are not in good shape, which is why it is possible tachycardia. Therefore, the new world does not seem very hospitable to the Caesarenne. The first meeting with a stranger, as you know, largely determines the attitude towards him. So in this case - a child can grow up non-contact, whiny, timid. And the lack of the first experience of the struggle for life can lead to infantilism.
Therefore, help the baby to get acquainted with the children by coming up with joint games with them. Do not wear a hundred clothes on a child just because there is "only" 18C on the street. Allow and even offer the kesaren to take risks: to jump off a step, climb on a stump, slide down a steep hill.
It is forbidden for a child under three years old to ride a tricycle and sleep with their parents. Expand your baby's responsibilities and goals regularly. At the same time, reward the child only at the end of the assignment. The fact is that giving up a business halfway is a peculiarity of a cesarean: persistence is bad for him, because from the first seconds of his life everything was done for him.
