Pregnancy and childbirth, pregnancy calendar, birth of the child, development of the child, health of children.

In one fine day you will come into a children's room and will be awarded by the finest gift - a sincere smile of your kid which radiates all its small body. You will understand, that this creation loves you, your voice, heat of your body. And wearisome daily work (diapers, the kitchen, cleaning, bathing, sleepless nights), all the same are not useless. The kid gradually overcomes all new and new steps in formation as Homo Sapiens.

Still more recently you were afraid, what not can independently (without the mum's help) to cope with the baby. And now understand desires of the kid and with pleasure watch how it changes.

Physical development

The third month is characterised by the further all-around development. The weight of a body in the end of a month will increase on the average on 800 g, growth - by 3 sm, a head circle - on 1 sm, a thorax - hardly more than 1 see

At this age or, as a last resort, in four months, a head circle it should be balanced with a thorax circle. If the head increases rather quickly and far to equality with a thorax circle, consult with the pediatrist not to pass brain disease.

Big rodnichok at the kid it is still open (i.e., has no a bone fabric), in sizes decreases (compared with the last months), it soft, is not strained, does not pulse. Be not afraid to touch it, do not pass it, at care of the child. It is the same site of a skin as others, and it it is necessary to hold all in cleanliness!

Reflex activity

The child already accurately understands the needs and liking. Association of impressions of surrounding and own temperament will lead to occurrence of the person in your family. The smile becomes the basic display of satisfaction from dialogue, food, rest or active game. The child willingly considers human faces, especially a site from a nose top to a forehead. In position on a stomach, with the handles exposed forward, the kid tries to lift the thorax, resting hands in a support. If the child to put vertically on legs, a foot rest, and the kid as if tries to make a start from the earth.

Movements

Movements by hands become more koordinirovannymi, and everything, that to them gets, at once goes on "testing" to a mouth. The majority of parents is noisy react to such flavouring tests and decide to clean all dirty subjects from an environment of the child. On the one hand, they are right. Sometimes polluted, and especially acute-angled subjects become dangerous to the kid. But remember, any of us is not created for a life in the sterile world! The body of the baby, its internal environment should adapt for surrounding microorganisms.

There is a sense to begin preparation of your house for displays of active studying of environment by the kid with the motto: "What is it?". Even, being at you on hands, he wishes to touch or taste a porcelain vase which to you has presented the mother-in-law, or road to your heart a bottle of perfume. At all parents in the world double sights at it. One consider expedient to leave all as is, motivating, that their child from "diapers" should acquire, that "is possible", and that "is not present". Others advise all jewelry and relics to hide till the "best" times that the child did not know (meanwhile) a word-combination it "is impossible".

In our opinion, it is necessary to select something an average. Plan to carry out time shift of those subjects which can be spoilt "excessive" curiosity of the kid, and, knowing tastes of the child, offer something another. And still, you "is not present" sooner or later it is necessary to apply.

Dream

Towards the end of the third month of a life the child can already sleep at night till 10 o'clock. The dream has non-uniform character, the kid often wakes up (suddenly for you) and starts to shout or suck the finger. It not a malefice! And not illness! These are the normal phenomena for the chest period. Even we, adults, sleep, having sometimes that deep, a superficial dream. The kid will start to sleep in due course more easy, of course, if you do not create to it a stressful situation, having woken definitively if only to be convinced, that with your child all is safe. It only will lead to that the child will get used to wake up at night to "check up", whether there is mum nearby. So, one my small patient even in two years every night woke up and did "muster": "Mum!", "the woman!". Only after all responded to such appeal, easy continued to sleep further.

So, do not show an excessive fright when the child has woken up. Allow to it time to calm down independently and to fall asleep, that the conditioned reflex of a quiet dream was developed.

And still: it is completely not necessary to shout at the kid, forcing it to sleep. You only will cause excessive excitation of the kid, and he still for a long time cannot fall asleep.

If the kid does not fall asleep, when you have put it in a bed, think, that in it could result:

• Whether on time the active period between a dream was sufficient? Probably, the child simply wishes to lose with you.
• Whether you promoted conditioned reflex production on a cot? Try to make so that all period between a dream passed out of a bed (in the cart, on other bed, etc.). Then at the child installation will be generated: "My bed - means it is necessary to sleep!". In due course the kid can show desire to have a sleep, specifying on a bed.
• Or not too emotionally you played with the child or were engaged in gymnastics shortly before a dream? Sometimes it is a lot of impressions in active hours rather raise the kid and extend wakefulness time.
• Whether all of you have eliminated the discomfort reasons? Close panties, a shirt, crumbs on a diaper, can stir the wet diaper, inconvenient position zasypaniju.
• Whether have appeared at the baby of frustration of digestion (a stomach swelling, gripes, zaglatyvanie air)?

Time of awakening of the kid, as a rule, depends on when and in what volume there was last feeding. Though is "solovushki" which, despite mum's shifts, always wake up at 6.00 (or and earlier). Then it is necessary to have patience and reconstruct only the mode on the child.

Dialogue

Vocal data are shown more often, there are new sounds, intonations. Thus, the kid shows desire to dialogue with you. Pay attention: the child "answers" only after the termination of your reference, as if listening to you. Certainly, he yet does not understand an essence of your language, but the desire to dialogue already is. Scientists have spent such experience. After each sound of the child there was a call melody. The kid has listened, however "did not answer". Only when the voice someone from people sounded, the child again started to "talk".

The desire is frequent enough to "talk" at children arises alone. The kid plays the handles, accompanying this game by sounds. It is proved, that such children grow quieter, than what are limited in dialogue.

In the course of care of the kid, let will be a rule - to accompany each action by words, as if to explain, that you do. And it is not obligatory to imitate children. Use the, adult language. The kid yet will not understand you, but it will be training to the future dialogue.

If you have found time for game with the child, necessarily talk to it thus. And not kompleksirujte if someone tells, that you speak with yourselves. It not so!

Some children during the active period like to "listen" quiet or even to dancing music. Give them such possibility! Probably, you bring up the future Vivaldi!

In a polyclinic!

This time the meeting with your doctor should take place in a children's polyclinic in established "Day of the healthy child". After conversation with the pediatrist and its survey, the kid the neurologist, the oculist, the orthopedist, and in case of need - other experts should look. The pediatrist, necessarily, will appoint measures on preventive maintenance of a rickets, an anaemia. At this age the child should make control analyses of blood and urine. And, eventually, to be prepared for an inoculation by a vaccine against a whooping cough, a diphtheria, a tetanus and a poliomyelitis. Vaccination is extremely necessary to warn variety of dangerous infectious diseases. So, if the kid feels well, and the commission of experts has not rejected possibility of carrying out of vaccination it is carried out in the conditions of an office of inoculations of your children's polyclinic at the age of three months.

Be attentive with the kid, try to help to adapt to it for all new in our world, make the step for formation of the person which is obligatory in something will repeat you, having increased and having estimated your goodwill!
