Newborn Myths
Child India
|April 2017
Much of yesterday’s baby wisdom has been proven to be outdated today. Some are even harmful. Get the scoop on which old-school parenting facts don’t hold true anymore.
THE ARRIVAL of your newborn ushers in celebrations and a lot of best wishes from friends, family members and well-wishers. Along with all of this comes a barrage of advices on dos and don’ts from all and sundry. More often than not, this becomes overwhelmingly confusing for the parents, especially if they are first timers. Moreover, a lot of these suggestions are not backed by scientific evidence—they are based on hearsay or traditional beliefs that have been passed on through generations (without factoring in the truth that civilization has evolved and changed a number of times during these generations)! Although some of these beliefs may be true, most others are not, and may have deleterious effect on the baby if practised. As parents, it would be best for you to clarify these with your paediatrician before you follow them. In this article, I have listed a few of them that are best ignored as myths!
MYTH: Colostrum should be discarded. It is harmful to the baby.
