Eating five-month child
The development of the child in 5 months is very important for his future life.
Let's start with the fact that it largely depends on whether it receives power from the mother, that is, when my mother feeding her baby with breast milk, the lure of themselves, and not required. However, if your baby is bottle-fed, you should start giving other foods since five months.
You can begin to give fruit purees and juices. Mostly it has to be apple, pear juice. You can give a little carrot. From mashed potatoes can recommend the cabbage and carrots. Giving must first one spoon, so that the child felt the taste. It is possible that a new taste to it he did not really like it, then you should stop for a while to give this product, but then be sure to try again.
Another important complementary foods are cereals. You can gradually accustom the child to the ladle. Boil it should be very liquid so that the child she choked, then you can give thicker and, when the child is already accustomed to eat porridge from a spoon. It is also very useful porridge of cornmeal. It is brewed in the same way as semolina.

Walking with children, toys and swimming
For the development of children in the 5 months are needed daily walks. Better, of course, if the weather is good and windless, but if there is little rain, do not sit at home! Take the stroller, umbrella, do not forget to cover the carriage, and go into the street! The fresh air during and after the rain is very useful for lung development in children. Do not wear a lot of clothes on a child, when you go with him on the street - the child may sweat and then catch a cold. Better warm jacket to take along. See for yourself: if you cool himself, then the child will be cold, and if you get hot at least a little bit, and then the child would be uncomfortable if he dressed like a cabbage. Walk with your child every day at least one hour.
If you find it hard constantly to lower the wheelchair in the doorway, then arrange with the neighbors that they have helped you. Encourage your husband to walk, he is at home, not at work. You can put the baby to bed, pull the wheelchair to the first floor, and then by the rise of the baby. So you spend less strength and gymnastics exercise (walking up the stairs - great gymnastics) and accurately be sure that no damage to the road, because there will not be much physically stressed.
Baby in the five months already asked to sit. To put its own is not necessary. Let time pass, and the child himself will be able to sit down. And if this is to start with five months against nature, it is possible to hurt him back. Do not worry if the baby can sit up myself - so its time. You can obkladyvat baby pillows so he could try to get on their own, but did not fall out of bed. At that time, children usually become active and can roll over on the back, and then again in the stomach. These rifts can and roll to the edge of the sofa, so be very careful.
In 5 months baby become interested in many subjects. Should buy him a variety of rubber toys to develop fine motor skills of hands and fingers. Let them tell their rattles, lying in bed. You can buy him a pyramid, with time he will collect it, to fold so that its parts fit correctly. In addition, it will be a lot to swallow, so before you give a child a toy, it should be boiled for 15 minutes in a large saucepan. At this age, it is already possible to start reading fairy tale little child, showing bright colored pictures. He will remember the spoken language and learn to speak a little, even in his own words, but it is very helpful for its development.
Bathe your little 5 months, it is already possible in a large common bath and do not add to manganese. Soap need to take baby, neutral. It is best suited liquid soap in a jar with dispenser, for out of it is very easy to pour the soap into his hand, if the other hand holds the baby. Of course, the best - it is to bathe the child with the father.
Let dad sit in the bath and control the process, support the child under the belly. Normally, at this age, the child swims well, especially if practiced swimming since diapers. Wash baby together better too. Let Dad keeps his hands, as he has more strength, and my mom just rub baby soap soft sponge. The bath can be run bath toys, let them shine, squeak - toddler would be better to swim in a large tub, and fear of the soul and the suds he never will, because he would be interested.
In conclusion I would like to add that no toys and colorful book will not replace the love, care and affection of parents. So follow these tips and do not forget to consult a pediatrician. At the slightest cold, contact your doctor, because the body of the child is still fragile and any cold can cause serious illness. And most importantly, pay your treasure a lot of attention, do it with pleasure, because children - the flowers of life. They are the most precious thing we have!

Spread the diaper on the table and pour cereal, put the kid. If a pipsqueak aktivnichaet much, then change position - lying on his back, he could not afford the grains to stick to the nose or mouth. Baby crawling on the rump, get new tactile sensations; at the same time they can diversify, changing the "filler" (you can start with millet, buckwheat continue, rice, round peas, beans). Duration of a small kid should not get tired and feel uncomfortable.
If a child suddenly disappeared tone hands and feet, and he actively moves them, make for better muscle development it dumbbells (tiny, baby).
