zikry 6 month & 2 weeks

Baby can now roll over from his tummy to his back and vice versa. This may even occur when he's sleeping. Although back sleeping is still the optimal position, and the one you should start him out in when you lay him down, don't worry too much if he flips over -- there's no need to reposition him as he sleeps. Your baby's risk of SIDS is decreasing at this age.

Your 6-month-old: Week 3
How your baby's growing:Soon your baby may let you know that he's ready to try eating finger foods by grabbing the spoon you're feeding him with or snatching food off your plate. Scatter four or five pieces of finger food onto your baby's highchair tray or an unbreakable plate. (To reduce the risk of choking, have your baby eat while sitting upright in a highchair rather than reclined in a car seat or stroller.)Your baby may have a good appetite but not many teeth, so start with foods that he can gum or that will dissolve easily in his mouth. As he grows you'll be able to give him bite-size pieces of whatever you're eating.• Learn more fascinating facts about your 6-month-old's development.
Your life: Taking time for yourselfFor most new moms, the last priority on the list is the item called "me." Baby care, holding down a job, and running a household all tend to come first. But making yourself a priority is important because if you don't, running the rest of your life is all the more difficult. It's like trying to operate a car without gas.Since you can't add hours to your day (or night), try reassigning the ones you have. Ask yourself what you can let go of. Are there volunteer positions you might take a break from, for example? Another way to find time is to figure out ways you can save minutes on day-to-day activities. Cook a few times a week in larger quantities and freeze leftovers for later meals. Buy ready-made meals at the grocery store on occasion. Don't worry if the neatness of your home isn't up to your previous standards, and ask for help (and accept offers of help) if you need it.Teamwork can really lift some pressure off you. Baby care is the obvious place to look into dividing chores.Schedule in one activity on a regular basis that's just for you — an exercise class or lunch with a friend, for example. Then learn to make the most of any break you get by making a list of any "me" activities you miss (reading, knitting, Web surfing) and fitting them in here and there.Reach out to other parents and find out how they've managed to save time and make their lives easier, too.
Bathtub safety
Q: Why am I so forgetful?
A: The most probable explanation for your "mommy brain" is a simple one: You're tired and distracted. "As the mother of a 6-month-old, you're likely to be sleep-deprived and focused more on your baby's well-being than anything else," says pediatrician Jennifer Shu of the Children's Hospital at Dartmouth. "It's natural that you're letting less important things fall by the wayside." There's also a chance that your hormones might be making your memory a bit fuzzy, particularly if you're breastfeeding, but there's not much research to back this theory up. One important caution: If your memory problems are accompanied by anxiety, a lack of interest in formerly pleasurable activities, or other signs of a mood disorder, you may need to be evaluated by an expert for postpartum depression. When your baby can sit up independently, he's ready to start bathing in the "big tub." Here are some guidelines to make bath time safe:
Watch your baby. Supervise your baby at all times during a bath. Babies can drown in as little as an inch of water. A sturdy waterproof bath seat or bath ring (with suction cups on the bottom) may help keep your baby in a manageable position, but it doesn't guarantee his safety. Never leave your baby unattended.
Prevent falls. Place a rubber mat in your tub for your baby to sit on. Make it a rule right from the start that he always sits in the tub, never stands.
Monitor the water temperature. Keep the water temperature between 96 and 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Set your water heater no higher than 120 degrees.
Prepare the bath safely. Fill the tub so the water will be no higher than his waist when your baby is seated. Run the water before placing your baby in the tub, and when you put him in, position him well away from the faucet handles and spout. Some parents find extra peace of mind in a cushioned spout cover for the faucet, although it's not very likely your baby will bump into it.
Easy on the soap. Soap, shampoo, and bubble bath can irritate your baby's skin during a prolonged soak (and bubble bath can irritate the urethra, leading to urinary tract infections), so use them sparingly. Warm water alone will usually do the trick.
