Life As I Know It: YAY a good day!

January 7, 2008

YAY a good day!

I called my obgyn this morning and expressed my concerns about my "problem" over the weekend. She said that the rx actually causes severe constipation and not the opposite. She thinks maybe with the symptoms I expressed I had another touch of the flu, but not the vomiting kind....the other kind. She also said not to take the rx if I am not feeling sick. So this morning I was feeling okay, and didn't take it. All day today I have felt good. Knock on some wood for me, please. Now I haven't felt 100% because work is just super busy and draining the first couple of weeks in January, but no nausea today, YAY. I have been really nervous to eat and getting a little hungry here and there, but I've been sticking to the BRAT diet and so far so good. So maybe this is a turn around. it seems with me though everyday is different so check back tomorrow.

Hope you feel 100% soon. Though, I didn't stop feeling sick at 12 weeks. More like 17 weeks. Oh well.

The Benefits of Mobiles for Infants

When choosing the right mobile for baby cribs, it is important to note that not all mobiles are created equal. All mobiles are designed to help keep your baby busy, but not all are designed to stimulate the development of your child’s mind. When choosing the right mobile, there are a few key factors that every parent should keep in mind.

Many mobiles are designed to be easily matched with a nursery décor. This means soft colors including pastels and other unsaturated hues. While they may look nice, this is not ideal in helping develop your baby’s visual senses. Infants have difficulty seeing soft colors, which means that these mobiles will not be as stimulating as others. When choosing a mobile, look for models that have attachments that are white, black, red, and one or more bright colors. Your child will have a much easier time seeing bright colors and it will help greatly as your child’s vision develops.

A good developmental mobile should also have several moving parts and points of articulation. Mobiles with attachments that allow for more rotations and movements will help your child with spatial relations. Not only that, but these mobiles will also engage your infant for longer periods of time. Even a child can decipher simple movement patterns and become bored, so complex patterns will help them stay occupied longer.

Lastly, look for a mobile that has incorporates audio as well as visual elements. Many mobiles on the market today come equipped with a music box to help entertain, stimulate, and relax your child. The high-end models even let you choose between stimulating or soothing music to help either engage or help relax your baby. The combination of visual and audio elements is the best way to help with the development of an infant and music especially is an essential part of developing a healthy and well adjusted child.
