Regular inspection for IVF breast feeding
In vitro fertilization (IVF) refers to the babies that are bred in the laboratory through in vitro fertilization (IVF). Although IVF babies have been born successfully, they need to receive regular medical examination in the lactation stage after birth to ensure their health and normal development. This article will elaborate on the routine examination of test tube babies during lactation from four aspects.
Routine physical examination
IVF babies need regular physical examination after birth. These tests are usually performed by infant and child specialists to ensure that the baby's physical development is normal. The doctor will measure the baby's length, weight and head circumference, and check the baby's skin, eyes, ears, mouth, chest and other parts. In addition, the doctor will also check the baby's limb mobility, curvature of the spine and flexibility of the limbs, and observe the baby's reaction and expression.
These physical examinations can detect potential health problems of infants as early as possible, and help doctors take corresponding measures for intervention and treatment. If problems are found, the doctor may recommend further examinations, such as cardiac ultrasound, brain imaging or genetic examination, to ensure the health of the baby.
Nutrition assessment and monitoring
The health and development of IVF is closely related to its adequate nutrition. Therefore, IVF infants need to receive regular assessment and monitoring of their nutritional status during lactation.
The doctor will evaluate the growth curve of the baby, including weight, height and head circumference, and compare it with healthy infants of the same age. The doctor will also learn about the baby's lactation and dietary intake, and adjust its diet and nutrition intake according to the baby's condition. In addition, the doctor will check the oral health of the baby and provide relevant advice and guidance.
Through nutritional status assessment and monitoring, doctors can find malnutrition or other problems that may affect the health of infants in a timely manner, and take appropriate measures for intervention and treatment.
Immunization
Test tube babies need to be immunized according to the normal infant vaccination plan during lactation. Vaccination can help infants establish immune protection and prevent the occurrence of various infectious diseases.
Immunization usually includes routine vaccine and special vaccine. Routine vaccines include DPT, poliomyelitis, measles, influenza, etc; Special vaccines are targeted at specific diseases, such as hepatitis B vaccine, pneumococcal vaccine, etc. The doctor will make a vaccination plan according to the age and health of the baby, and inform the parents of the time and method of vaccination.
Immunization is an important link to ensure the healthy growth of infants. It can prevent a variety of serious infections and diseases, and provide strong protection for infants' immune system.
Development assessment and early intervention
IVF infants need development assessment and early intervention during lactation after birth. Development assessment is to observe and test the infant's development level, and understand the infant's development in terms of movement, language, cognition and social interaction.
The doctor will observe the baby's body movements and postures, check his language and communication skills, and evaluate his cognitive and social behavior. If the infant's development is found to be lagging or abnormal, the doctor will make a more in-depth assessment and provide early intervention measures and rehabilitation treatment to promote the infant's development and improve its quality of life.
Through development assessment and early intervention, IVF babies can overcome development difficulties, obtain better development opportunities, and provide parents with advice and support for their special needs.
Summary
Test tube babies need to undergo regular physical examination, nutritional assessment and monitoring, immunization, development assessment and early intervention during lactation. These examinations can help doctors find out and intervene the possible health problems of infants as soon as possible, so as to ensure their healthy growth. Parents should actively cooperate with the doctor's inspection and suggestions, pay attention to the health of the baby, and timely deal with and solve any problems to ensure that IVF can grow healthily and happily.
