DON'TS ABOUT BABY.
Don't rock or jolt baby; he does not always appreciate it ns much as you think, and it is not good for his nervous system. Don't, forget that baby gets thirsty and needs boiled water to drink.
Don't forget that baby's dollies should tm non-irritating, non constrictive, light and sufficient I v warm.
Don't uh' a binder. Remember that this is one of tho chief causes of indigestion, and that if it gels wet. (as it nearly always does) it is most uncomfortable for baby. Don't imagine that a binder will support baby's back, certainly a flannel one will not do so, and u stiff one only restricts lis breathing capacity.
Hon't, allow ten o'clock in thr; morning pass without making baby's bowels act, if they have not done so during tho previous 24 hours.
Don't forget regularity of all habits is v.'lint, baby needs. Regularity of feeding, with proper intervals between meals, regularity of sleep, exercise, bathing, and of the bowels.
Don't imagine that you can !*e (no clean, especially with regard to food and feeding utensils.
Don't forget that baby needs mothering
