When going through the moment of pregnancy to the period after giving birth and breastfeeding, there are many things that mothers must do. Starting from how to care for, breastfeed, put to sleep, to how to dress the baby. Call it, one of them is how to dress a baby octopus.

According to the view of many people long ago, the use of baby octopus is good for helping the growth of the little one's body. If so, until what age do babies use octopus? Or actually baby octopus is actually dangerous to use.

 For more details, see the following explanation of the baby octopus.

 What is a Baby Octopus?

A baby octopus is not an animal figure with eight tentacles attached to the little one but a cloth. However, a baby octopus is not an ordinary cloth, but a baby octopus is a piece of cloth used by mothers to wrap around a newborn's stomach in the future. 

Of course, there is a reason why this cloth is called a cloth octopus. This is because the cloths used when tied up resemble the tentacles of this reptile, which is why it is called a baby octopus.

Until What Age Babies Use Baby Octopus?

The use of baby octopus has long been believed to bring many benefits. Some of them are to prevent various diseases such as colds to be able to shrink the shape of the stomach in your little one. Many put baby octopuses on their little ones from birth to two months old.

 In fact, according to a number of medical studies, instead of bringing health and other benefits, baby octopus can actually hamper the growth and development of the baby in the future.

Facts About the Benefits of Baby

Octopus Baby octopus is known to bring many benefits, such as reducing the size of the stomach and preventing health problems, is that right? Or does it cause health problems? Check out the following explanation.

Reducing the size of the stomach

It is not uncommon to find a baby with a stomach that is not small or has a larger size such as a distended stomach and the mother thinks that the newborn's stomach size is not normal. However, in fact this is normal, but many mothers believe in baby octopuses and try to reduce the size of the stomach by pairing them.

The size of a newborn's large belly that tends to be distended is actually a natural thing because it is influenced by several things such as the thickness of the skin, abdominal muscles, and the fat in it.

According to the medical, the skin, muscles, and belly fat in babies have not experienced thickening which makes it unable to withstand the bowel movements that push out so that the stomach looks distended.

So, there is nothing to do with a baby octopus with a distended stomach in newborns, which will actually be dangerous if applied to the baby.

Reducing health problems

According to many mothers out there, the baby's stomach is the part that must be protected with thick cloth, one of which is the baby octopus. The reason is that a baby's stomach that is not covered by a cloth can be at risk for colds and other health problems.

The myth is not entirely true, colds or other problems can actually occur when the baby cries too long and a lot of cold air is inhaled into the body.

In fact, this condition can also cause symptoms of serious illness and less problematic events such as flatulence that must occur because the baby has colic.

So, the use of baby octopus will not affect health problems. Most importantly, if there are health symptoms that appear marked by flatulence, it's a good idea for you and the mothers to check with a doctor for further treatment.

Baby Octopus Disturbs Health

According to some sources, the use of baby octopus can actually interfere with the health of your little one. Why is that? Wearing too tight can actually cause a number of problems for newborns.

 The baby's skin, which the baby octopus puts on tightly, will eventually feel hot and sweat a lot. This can lead to irritation to the appearance of rashes on the skin such as diaper rash. 

Not only that, the use of a baby octopus that is too tight can interfere with the digestive problems of newborns. The baby octopus will suppress the food that is in the body and has entered the stomach. As a result, your little one will vomit the food and the baby octopus needs to be released from his body.

Another health problem is that it can interfere with your baby's breathing if it is tied too tightly because newborns cannot breathe directly using the lungs, but through the stomach.

With the use of a baby octopus that is too tight it will inhibit the baby's breathing and there will be a reduction in oxygen which will hamper the baby's development.

So it seems, if used excessively and too dating, you and the mothers do not need to use baby octopus.

So, what about other equipment?
