Treat babies as babies not as DOLLS

You should see the type of dress people make their new borns/babies wear even during summer. Frocks, dresses with layers of synthetic cloth and many many stiff cloth,plastic and other such material jewels, kaajal in the eyes (rather the whole face), large bindi on the forehead and a large black spot on the cheek to ward off evil eye. The kaajal etc. would get smudged on the whole face and the baby will look like black faced. Babies should be made to wear only washed cotton dresses which do not have anything which may give discomfor to the baby.

 

You are absolutely correct. Even I agree with your views. Stupid ladies dont understand when we say dont touch the baby. They irritate them, then the babies will fall sick after that the same idiots will say 'nazar lag haya hai'.
u better buy a baby carrier and hold your baby whenever you have some gatherings. no one will try to snatch the baby if it is in a carrier wrapped around you.

 

I agree. I have seen many ladies with their little baby wrapped in blankets/sweaters even in hot weather. Sometimes the baby will sleep in the arms of mother and his/her head will hang badly on two wheeler.. I feel like stopping by and advising

 

hi nancy,

I just wanted to add one more point. Flash lights and video lights during such ceremonies make the babies dehydrate. My DD got allergic rashes coz everyone lifted and kissed her during naming ceremony. My pedia and our family friend a siddha practitioner told us to keep away baby from all for various reasons. Pediatrician said infections are highly possible and the siddha doc said a more shocking news. IF not handled properly the nerves near the babies ear are tend to get damaged. So ladies who are not well trained in lifting babies at least should not lift on them on such occassions where the parents would not be able to do anything

 

Thank You Nancy.

I showed your post to my husband, even he agrees with your opinion. Sad to know about your babys health. I will pray for her. I saw your profile. You are tamil. Nice to meet you.

 

Very bad to hurt babies and make them cry. Many people also putting so much gold and silk on baby in summer. poor baby crying badly. I feel so bad for baby.
