Care needs of test tube babies after 19 days
IVF is an embryo that is fertilized and cultivated in the laboratory through artificial insemination or in vitro fertilization technology, and then transferred to the mother's uterus for pregnancy. For the care of IVF babies, special attention and care are needed after 19 days to ensure their health and growth.
1. Diet and feeding
Test tube babies need normal feeding and diet after 19 days. Breast milk is the best food choice. It provides rich nutrition and immunity, and helps the growth and development of infants and the establishment of immune system. If the mother cannot produce enough milk, she can choose formula feeding. The amount and frequency of feeding should be determined according to the needs of infants, and it is important to ensure that infants receive adequate nutrition.
In addition to feeding, make sure the baby has enough water in his diet. Breast milk or formula is sufficient to meet the infant's water needs without additional water supplementation.
In addition, the baby's feeding position is also very important. When feeding, ensure that the baby's head and body are in proper position to avoid suffocation or air inhalation during feeding.
2. Sleep and rest
19 day old IVF babies need sufficient sleep and rest to support their growth and development. According to their needs, IVF babies need about 16-20 hours of sleep every day.
In order to ensure that they can sleep safely, it is necessary to provide a safe and comfortable sleeping environment for infants. Choose age appropriate cribs and bedding, and avoid using too soft or too large pillows and quilts. In addition, infants can be given massage or warm water bath before sleeping to help relax their bodies and promote sleep.
At the same time, the rest time of IVF infants should also be given sufficient attention. When they are awake, they can carry out tactile and visual stimulation to promote their sensory development.
3. Hygiene and warmth
It is very important to keep IVF clean and warm. The baby's skin is very delicate and vulnerable to irritation and infection. Therefore, keep your hands clean and use warm water and mild detergent when holding a baby, changing diapers and bathing.
Keeping babies warm is also crucial. Appropriate room temperature and seasonal clothing are essential for the comfort and health of IVF. Make sure the baby wears appropriate clothing to avoid overheating or overheating.
4. Health monitoring and regular inspection
IVF infants should receive regular health monitoring and routine examination. Babies often need close attention after birth to ensure that their physical development is normal. Measure the weight and height regularly, and observe whether the baby's skin, hair, eyes, ears, hands and feet are normal.
In addition, take the baby for physical examination on a regular basis, including hearing, vision, cardiopulmonary function, etc. If any abnormality is found, consult a doctor or go to a professional institution for examination and treatment.

The above nursing measures can help ensure the healthy growth of test tube babies. Diet and feeding, sleep and rest, hygiene and warmth, health monitoring and regular inspection are all key aspects. These measures can provide a good growth environment and health support for IVF.
Mothers should also maintain good diet and living habits during lactation to ensure the quality and nutritional richness of breast milk. Family members should also pay attention to the interaction and care with IVF babies to provide them with a safe and stable environment.
Finally, the nursing and healthy growth of IVF needs the assistance and guidance of professional medical institutions and medical personnel. The family should take the baby to see a doctor regularly and follow the doctor's advice and guidance to ensure the healthy development of the baby.
