Development of muscle strength
In the first few days after birth, IVF babies are generally in a weak state, and their muscle strength is not strong. Within 12 days after birth, the baby's muscle strength will gradually develop and become stronger.
First, in the first few days of IVF birth, their muscle strength is low. This is because when the fetus is in the womb, it has no chance to experience muscle training with the outside world. However, once born, babies begin to exercise and develop muscle strength through sports.
After a period of free movement, IVF babies began to move their limbs, especially their hands and feet. They may hold small objects and try to put them in their mouth. This activity helps strengthen their hand muscles and improve their grip. At the same time, IVF babies will also try to turn over from prone position to supine position, which can exercise the strength of their trunk and limbs.
After 12 days, the muscle strength of IVF will increase significantly. Their hands and feet are more flexible, their holding ability is stronger, and they can also control the head movement autonomously to a certain extent. In addition, the baby also began to stretch, body rotation and other exercises regularly to strengthen muscle development.
Nursing care of muscle strength of test tube infants
In order to promote the development of IVF muscle strength, parents need to give proper care and support.
First of all, parents can encourage the baby's activities by providing a variety of toys and stimulating environment. The rich toys can stimulate the baby's hand activities and develop the holding ability. The stimulating environment can stimulate the curiosity and exploration desire of babies, and encourage them to exercise and exercise muscles more actively.
Secondly, parents can give the baby enough free space to move. IVF babies need the opportunity to stretch their limbs freely and try various movements. In order to ensure the safety of the baby, you can provide them with soft floor mats and give them supervision nearby.
In addition, parents can also promote blood circulation and muscle relaxation by massaging the baby's muscles. Gentle massage can not only increase the baby's intimate contact with parents, but also promote the improvement of blood supply and metabolism of its muscles.
Activities that help test tube babies develop muscle strength
For the special situation of IVF babies, there are some specially designed activities to help them develop muscle strength.
First, parents can carry out limb gymnastics and abdominal exercises. Limb gymnastics is to change the baby's body position through different movements and positions to exercise their muscles. Abdominal movement can strengthen the strength of abdominal muscles through proper prone position activities.
In addition, parents can also carry out some simple games and activities, such as raising the baby's arm, letting them try to hold the suspended toy, or encouraging the baby to try to crawl on his stomach. These activities can exercise the baby's hand muscles and limb strength.
Finally, for IVF babies with special diseases or muscle retardation, professional rehabilitation care may be required. Hospitals and other professional institutions can provide targeted rehabilitation training and physical therapy to help babies overcome obstacles to muscle strength development.
summary
In vitro babies, muscle strength will gradually develop and become stronger within 12 days after birth. By providing a variety of toys and stimulating environment, giving free space for movement, as well as proper massage and special rehabilitation training, IVF can help to fully develop muscle strength. The correct care and support of parents are of great significance to the muscle development of babies, and lay a solid foundation for their growth.
