Are O legs related to diapers? Baby O shaped legs have a relationship with diapers, do you agree?

I didn't have diapers before, but I was most disgusted by those who said that diapers used O-shaped legs. If you can't afford it, don't use it. Obviously, it is no problem to say that it is still spreading rumors. View the original post

Foreign children have been using it.,I didn't see the O-shaped leg [:em33:] View the original post

Remember.

Diapers are already an indispensable parenting product for Chinese families, but there are also many controversies surrounding it. In particular, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law often quarrel fiercely over "whether to use diapers for children" and "when to stop using diapers". When you have the exact knowledge of parenting, you will find that the quarrels caused by diapers actually come from various misunderstandings about diapers.

In the face of a series of misunderstandings, diapers expressed "dissatisfaction". I don't carry these pots and I'm going to prove my name! Diapers are not ventilated due to the influence of traditional parenting concepts, and the elderly believe that diapers are not ventilated and babies will be uncomfortable to wear.

Because in their eyes, diapers look thick, heavy and breathable when wet. This is a completely wrong idea.

Misunderstanding the design of diapers Diapers are the product of child-rearing convenience, and with the development of its technology and function, and the times, technological upgrades have also occurred. Starting from the basic functions of early absorption and impermeability, the air permeability and impermeability functions have gradually increased, and now the concept of "antibacterial" has also begun to appear. At the same time, it has also developed more humanized designs such as stretch waist circumference and three-dimensional reverse osmosis.

Throughout history, breathability has always been the concept of diapers. Misunderstanding the structural principle of diapersThe main structure of diapers is 4 layers, from the inside to the outside, they are the inner layer, the absorption layer, the heart layer and the outer layer. This 4-layer material interacts to form a complete ventilation that quickly and completely absorbs the baby's urine and prevents side leakage.

Among them, the factor that determines the air permeability of diapers is the absorption layer, which is also the main factor affecting the thickness of visual perception. The main material of the absorbent layer is a combination of superabsorbent resin and wood pulp, and the quality of these two materials directly determines the thickness of the diaper. Generally speaking, absorbent materials have good water absorption, and the thickness of diapers is relatively thin.

On the contrary, the diaper will be a little thicker. In fact, people who use diapers know that diapers swell when they absorb water, but the inner layer is dry. This means that the diaper is very breathable.

There are many reasons for children to have O-shaped legs, such as the lack of certain nutrients in the child's body, such as calcium, phosphorus, etc., and the bones will be stunted, especially the lack of calcium, which will cause rickets, and the child will have the symptoms of O-shaped legs. If there is trauma or some diseases, it will also cause the child to have leg deformities such as O-shaped legs O-shaped legs have nothing to do with diapers, diapers, especially diapers with a wide crotch, will only make the child's legs temporarily break outward due to the relationship between the crotch, which is different from the O-shaped legs with the shin of the calf rotating inward.

Some good diapers have nothing to do with the baby's O-shaped legs, and the baby's O-shaped legs may be caused by the baby's congenital or imperfect bone development, which should be judged according to the actual situation.

Disagree. Because the baby's leg shape is genetically controlled and has nothing to do with diapers, I don't agree.

Diapers will not increase the occurrence of the baby's O-shaped legs in the future, which refers to the abnormal development of the knee joint or has certain genetic factors, and may also be related to development, such as: vitamin D deficiency rickets, and may be related to premature "artificial training of children to stand and walk".

The appearance of the bilateral lower limbs of a normal person should be basically straight, and when the inside of the ankle joints on both sides is brought together, the bilateral knees should also be able to come together. When the distance between the two knees is more than 2 cm, it can be called "O-shaped leg" or "knee varus", and it is commonly known as "lap leg". "O-shaped legs" are common in children aged 2 to 6 years and are characterized by the lower limbs not being straight or bent, the distance between the knees is large when the heels are together, making the lower legs feel too bent, and the feet are inwardly figure-eight when walking.

Causes:* Mild and moderate "O" shaped legs** in neonates and young infants** may be related to the position of the fetus in the womb with the hips and knees flexed. Most of these "O-shaped legs" are mild and can be corrected automatically.

A considerable part of the "O-shaped legs" in childhood are the sequelae left after suffering from "rickets" at this stage, which is osteomalacia caused by calcium deficiency, so it is also called "osteomalacia". When these children with "rickets" begin to learn to walk, due to the weight bearing of both lower limbs, the softened bone will gradually deform under the action of force to form "O-shaped legs".

Other diseases, such as congenital tibial varus and hypophosphate-resistant D-resistant rickets, can also cause some children to develop "O-shaped legs".

Focus on prevention: The key to "O-shaped legs" in childhood is prevention. The key to prevention is early, reasonable, and adequate calcium supplementation.

First of all, early calcium supplementation is particularly important, and it should be done as early as the mother's pregnancy, which is very important. When the mother is pregnant, the need for calcium increases greatly, and the amount of calcium supplementation must be increased during this period to prevent the baby from suffering from "congenital rickets" after birth.

Secondly, the principle of reasonable and sufficient calcium supplementation. Calcium supplementation should be carried out under the guidance of a child health care physician or pediatric orthopedic surgeon, and parents should not increase or decrease the amount of calcium supplementation for their babies.

Prevention and control measures: a) If the baby has mild "O-shaped legs", parents don't need to worry too much! This symptom will basically improve when the baby grows up or when he or she reaches a certain age.

b) Be careful not to let your baby develop the habit of kneeling with both lower limbs.

c) Encourage your baby to do more outdoor activities or sports to increase the strength of the muscles in both lower limbs and the absorption of calcium. Most of the young patients are able to return to their normal state after entering elementary school.

d) Supplement your diet with foods high in calcium, such as seaweed, cheese, green beans, kelp, egg yolks, black sesame seeds, shrimp skins, soybeans, shepherd's cabbage, black fungus, etc. Encourage your baby to spend time in the sun to promote calcium absorption.

Experts remind: If the baby's "O-shaped leg" deformity is found to be more serious, parents should be alert to the possibility of the baby suffering from low-phosphorus resistant D-resistant rickets, and must go to a children's specialist hospital for treatment. In a small percentage of children, when the "O-shaped leg" deformity is too severe to fully return to normal, it must be corrected with the support of a pediatric orthopedic surgeon.

Methods include orthopedic shoes, orthotic stents, surgery, etc.

Experts tell you that diapers can produce O-shaped legs and butt butts.
