What are the taboos when taking a newborn home

There are sometimes many taboos when you have a baby at home. For example, you cannot take the baby out late at night. If the family members come back late from going out, it is best not to rush to see the baby. Especially during the Ghost Festival, you need to pay special attention. This is mainly because the baby is relatively small and can be easily frightened, or some dirty things can scare the baby. So what are the taboos?

What are the taboos when you have a baby at home and come home late?

1. The custom in many places is that if you come home late at night, you should not go back to the room directly to feed the baby. If there is a baby in the room, you can go to other rooms and stay for a while.

2. Generally, during the Ghost Festival, adults are afraid of bringing dirty things home and scaring the children, so they really cannot go out and come back late. Just wait outside the door for a while, smoke a cigarette, stamp your feet, howl loudly, and then go back home. Children should not go out after 7:30. If they want to go out, they must wear a pair of small scissors and some silver jewelry.

What should you pay attention to when you have children at home?

1. When the child can walk unsteadily, set aside a special place for the baby to walk. All corners of the house should be soft-packed, or directly designed with arc shapes, avoiding right angles, to prevent the child from bumping into them and causing accidents.

2. Items such as hot water bottles and thermos flasks should be placed out of sight of children to avoid scalding.

3. When choosing decoration materials, pay attention to those with anti-slip function.

4. Keep the house clean.

5. Trim children’s nails.

6. Parents should do a good job of killing mosquitoes. Mosquito nets can be added to children’s beds to prevent mosquitoes and keep children’s skin clean.

Although many of the things said by the elderly have no scientific basis, they are indeed valuable experiences based on decades of life experience. We should respect them, but do not rely entirely on these statements; just use them as a reference. And if there is a baby at home, you do need to pay more attention to protect the baby's health and safety. Do not smoke at home, as this will expose the baby to smoking passively and affect their health.
