| 00:02 | Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Neonatal Childcare. |
| 00:06 | In this tutorial we will learn about:- |
| 00:09 | How to take care of a newborn baby |
| 00:12 | Common problems faced by a new mother and
|
| 00:15 | How to tackle those problems |
| 00:18 | Dr. Anjali enters Anita’s house and expresses her happiness on her newborn child.
|
| 00:25 | Dr. Anjali notices Anita is holding her baby in a wrong way. |
| 00:30 | She tells Anita to be careful while carrying the baby.
|
| 00.35 | Dr. Anjali shows her how to support the head of the baby and cradle it
|
| 00.41 | when holding the baby upright or |
| 00.43 | when laying it down. |
| 00.45 | The doctor advices Anita to never handle the baby roughly. |
| 00.51 | Anita tells the doctor that she is new to all this. |
| 00.55 | And asks for her advice on taking better care of her newborn baby.
|
| 01.02 | Dr Anjali happily agrees. |
| 01:04 | She points out that first and foremost important is -
|
| 01:09 | to wash your hands with soap or charcoal-ash |
| 01:13 | before handling the newborn babies. |
| 01:15 | Young babies have not yet built up a strong immune system.
|
| 01.19 | So, they are susceptible to infections.
|
| 01.24 | Anita asks the doctor, “How often should I feed my baby?”. |
| 01.28 | The doctor tells Anita that a newborn baby needs to be fed every 2 to 3 hours.
|
| 01:37 | She explains that breastfeeding is most important for the health of the baby -
|
| 01.43 | Development of the baby’s immune system.
|
| 01.46 | Also, if you're breastfeeding, give your baby the chance to nurse about 10-15 minutes at each breast.
|
| 01.56 | Then, Anita asks the doctor about formula-feeding the baby.
|
| 02.00 | The lady doctor states that |
| 02:02 | if you're formula-feeding your baby like for eg:milk-substitutes,
|
| 02:08 | then it will most likely take about 60-90 gm at each feeding. |
| 02:14 | Anita then asks the doctor about when and how can she give the baby a bath. |
| 02.21 | The doctor explains that during the first few weeks, the baby is very delicate. |
| 02.28 | She says that we should give the baby only sponge bath, until |
| 02.33 | (a) the umbilical cord falls off |
| 02.37 | (b) the circumcision heals |
| 02.39 | (c) the navel heals completely
|
| 02.43 | The doctor explains that after the initial period, 2-3 baths per week, with a mild soap, are sufficient for the baby. |
| 02.53 | This can continue during the first year of the baby.
|
| 02.56 | Frequent bathing may be drying to the skin.
|
| 03.01 | Dr Anjali then points out that the baby has some rashes. |
| 03.06 | Anita gets scared. |
| 03.08 | She asks the doctor how to take care of such rashes. |
| 03.13 | The doctor explains that the rashes are because of the wet diaper. |
| 03.19 | She further says that you should change your baby's cloth diaper frequently, and as soon as possible after bowel movements. |
| 03.29 | After cleaning the area with mild soap and water, wipe it dry. |
| 03.34 | Then apply some baby powder over it to keep it moisture-free.
|
| 03.39 | The doctor further explains that if you using cloth diapers, wash them in hot water with a disinfectant like dettol. |
| 03.49 | Its also a good idea to let the baby go un-diapered for part of the day.
|
| 03.55 | Anita thanks Dr Anjali for her advice and says she will keep them in mind.
|
| 04.02 | This brings us to the end of this tutorial.
