the skin for a start for a very short time and gradually increasing area and time till the whole body is exposed for 10 minutes or longer, but care should be taken not to allow the skin to burn.

Mothering and Management: If a baby is to develop normally in mind and body, he must have loving care and wise management. Too much indulgence means spoiling, and a spoilt child is usually unhappy and a source of annoyance to those with whom he comes in contact. A baby should never be allowed to lie passively in his cot, but his position should be changed from time to time and a certain time should be set aside for “mothering.” That is the child should be nursed in his mother's arms, carried about, and played with.

Infection: Young babies and children are susceptible to infection, kissing the baby and small child on the mouth of adults should be avoided. Particularly Maori grandparents show their affection for their grandchildren by a vigorous sucking of the infant on the cheeks and mouth. Tact should be used by the mother to avoid this practice. It is a dangerous habit, practiced by many adults, especially old people.

Don'ts: 1. Don't give the new born baby castor oil or any other purgative. Nature supplied what is needed. 2. Don't resort to bottle feeding unless on instructions from the Public Health Nurses or the Doctor. 3. Don't feed baby at night—that is between 10 p.m.–6 a.m. 4. Don't wean baby because your milk seems to disagree with the baby and make it fretful. The common cause of such symptoms is indigestion due to baby being fed too often and taking too much. 5. Don't use a dummy or let baby such his thumb. 6. Don't wipe out baby's mouth, this tends to cause ulcers and thrush. 7. Don't give or use soothing syrups or powders. 8. Don't keep baby in a warm stuffy room, and then blame pure air, because he “catches cold’ when taken out. 9. Don't cover baby's face by laying anything on it—not even the flimsiest lace handkerchief. 10. Don't rock baby to sleep. 11 Don't take baby to bed with you. 12. Don't neglect a crying baby, the cause may be discomfort due to a wet napkin or a pin, or he may be ill. 13. Don't breast feed the baby after he is twelve months. 14. Don't feed the baby from a bottle unless the bottle and teat are clean.
