7 Things To Do When Baby Starts Crawling
There are very few things more adorable in the world than a baby crawl. When your baby starts crawling, you have to do a lot of stuff quickly. The first concern of any parent is how to avoid baby accidents once the baby starts crawling. But there is much to do when your baby becomes 'mobile' for the first time. When your baby reaches the crawling age, you must be prepared with a to-do list.
DO ALL BABIES CRAWL BEFORE THEY WALK?
You baby will be prone to accidents when he or she starts to crawl. That is why; your first job would obviously be to baby proof your house in every possible way. All babies have minor accidents once they crawl, so do not get hyperactive about protecting your baby. Be relaxed but be watchful. The key to avoiding accidents is to never leave the baby completely unattended in a vulnerable position.
The second concern is hygiene. So, you will have to be extra particular to keep your floors, mats and rugs clean. Your baby tends to explore at this age and everything goes straight into their mouth. Maintain hygiene in your house and stay put. Here are some of the other important things that you need to do when your baby starts crawling.
Click!
Crawling is a big milestone moment in your baby life. So make sure you capture it on celluloid. Click pictures of your baby crawling. This can also be the best time to make some small home videos.
Baby Proof Your Home
Remove all objects that pose a potential danger to your baby away from his/her reach. This would include sharp objects, things that can be toppled and also small objects that your baby can put in his or her mouth.
Never Leave Baby On The Bed
Never leave the baby on the bed or couch unattended. You baby will crawl over pillows and cushions to fall flat and this may lead to substantial injuries.
Ensure Baby Crib Safety
Make sure that your baby cot is safe for your crawling little superstar. Most baby cots have levels. You need to keep the cot at a level where baby does not crawl out of the crib.
Encourage Baby To Explore
Do not restrict your baby all the time. When your baby starts crawling, you must encourage him or her to explore. Give your baby some toys or colourful things to grab so that he or she can crawl towards them.
Keep The Floors & Carpets Clean
Once your baby starts crawling, you will have to keep the floors and carpets in your house clean. Your baby will be on the floor on all fours and this increases the chances of infection.
Try To Help Baby Walk
Try to encourage your baby to walk once he or she starts crawling. Hold the baby's hands and walk with the baby so that he or she goes to the next milestone quickly.
