Size diapers bergantung kepada berat kanak-kanak :

1. Untuk bayi berusia 6 bulan dan ke bawah : jangan biarkan bayi anda memakai diapers melebihi 6 jam tanpa ditukar. Bayi berusia 6 bulan ke bawah memerlukan penjagaan kebersihan 3 kali ganda berbanding bayi berusia 6 bulan ke atas.

2. Jangan lewat menukar diapers anak anda melebihi 15 minit selepas dia membuang air besar. Ia boleh menjadi punca alahan kulit. Ini kerana apabila najis bayi dibiarkan lama, ia akan bertindak balas dengan air kencing dan menyebabkan ruam pada kulit bayi terutama yang memakai diapers dari jenis plastik (bukan breathable).

3. Galakkan anak anda ke bilik air sebaik sahaja usianya mencecah 2 tahun. Pemakaian diapers tidak seharusnya berlanjutan. Anak anda perlu dilatih lebih awal untuk memudahkan aturan sistem pembuangan yang baik.

4. Diapers yang baik adalah diapers yang memiliki kadar resapan yang tinggi. Ini kerana setiap titis air kencing yang mengalir di kulit boleh mengundang risiko jangkitan kuman.

5. Jangan taburkan bedak pada alat sulit bayi, terutamanya bayi perempuan kerana ia boleh memudaratkan saluran pembuangan air kecil. Adalah lebih baik menggunakan krim kerana bedak juga boleh mengganggu kadar resapan cecair pada diapers.

Diaper rash is most commonly caused by the constant wetting and drying of the skin along with repetitive exposure to a variety of irritating substances.

(reprinted from baby magazine)


The most common irritants are urine, stool, bacteria from urine and stool, ammonia - which is formed by the baby?s stool breaking down the chemicals in urine, detergents, perfumes, plastics and dyes from single use disposable diapers, pre-moistened baby wipes, soaps and reactions to creams. The term ?diaper rash? describes several different kinds of skin conditions in the diaper area. Below is a list of the different types of diaper rash and what they usually look like.

Chafing dermatitis (diaper chafing):

This is the most common form of diaper rash, which can make the genital area and folds of the thighs & buttocks appear red and puffy. Diaper chafing or the baby being in a wet and dirty diaper for too much time causes this type of rash. This type of rash generally comes and goes, causing little discomfort as long as it?s not complicated by a secondary infection. Some Diaper manufacturers are adding powders and Aloe with Vitamin E to their process. This can help to lessen the irritations if diapers are not changed as frequent as we recommend.

Atopic Dermatitis (Eczema):

This type of rash shows up as red scaly patches on the legs and in the groin area. This rash may turn up in other parts of the body first while spreading to the diaper area between 6 and 12 months of age. Most doctors believe that eczema is caused by food allergies, cow?s milk in particular. Even breast fed babies can react to food their mother?s have eaten, such as, dairy, wheat, citrus, eggs, and peanuts.
Candidal dermatitis (yeast infection): This type of rash is usually tender and painful, appearing in the folds of the baby?s genitals, legs and the creases between the abdomen and thighs. This rash will start as small red spots that become more numerous and then form together as a raised bright red rash with distinct edges. The most common cause of this type of rash is a baby that is taking or has been taking antibiotics.

Perianal dermatitis:

This type of rash appears as a bright to dark redness around the anus. The stools of bottle fed babies being more alkaline than normal usually cause it. This rash will usually not appear with breast fed babies until after solids are introduced.

This rash will appear as a deep red rash that is rough, raised and often has yellowish scales. This type of rash usually starts on the scalp as cradle cap, although it can sometimes begin in the diaper region and then its spreads upward. This rash is usually caused by overactive oil glands in the skin.
Impetigo: This type of rash can appear as yellow-brown crusty patches or pus filled pimples or blisters, which is usually accompanied by a lot of surrounding redness. This rash can cover the buttocks, lower abdomen, anus, umbilical cord, and thighs and then spread to other parts of the body. Impetigo is caused by bacteria (streptococci or staphylococci). If you think your baby?s rash is a bacterial infection, be sure and notify your doctor immediately. Your doctor will most likely prescribe a topical or oral antibiotic.
Tidemark dermatitis: This rash is an irritation that occurs from the edges or bindings of a diaper rubbing against the skin.
Intertrigo: This rash will appear as a reddened area, which occurs as a result of skin rubbing on skin. It is usually found in the folds between the thighs and abdomen and sometimes in the armpits.

Treatments for Diaper Rash

The best treatment for diaper rash is prevention. The best prevention is keeping your baby?s diaper area clean and dry. Even with all the prevention in the world, your baby may still get diaper rash. Don?t feel to blame, because it?s very common. The following preventative measures will help you treat a current case of rash and also help you prevent reoccurrences.

Frequent diaper changes:

Change your baby?s diaper as soon as he or she has wet or had a bowel movement. Wash your baby?s bottom with warm water using wash clothes or cotton balls instead of ?baby wipes?.
Barrier or blocking ointments: Using an ointment such as Desitin, A&D, Eucerin, zinc oxide or Nivea on your baby?s bottom can put a protective barrier between urine, stool and your baby?s skin. Most doctors recommend avoiding the use of talcum powder, which can cause lung problems and cornstarch, which can cause yeast to form.
Fresh Air: Give your baby?s bottom more time in the open air without diapers on. When you?re at home, place your baby on a few cloth diapers or blankets over a waterproof pad. The more fresh air that your baby?s bottom is exposed to the faster the rash will heal.
Different type of diapers: If your baby is having a recurring problem with diaper rash try switching the type of diapers you are using. If you are using disposable diapers, try switching to cloth. Some of the dyes and perfumes in disposables may be the cause of your baby?s rash. If you?re using cloth diapers, try putting the diapers through a second wash cycle in clear water without detergents.
Avoid soaps and other irritants: Limit the use of soap on your baby?s bottom. Washing with soap 2 or 3 times a week is enough. Even if you?re using a mild soap for sensitive skin, your baby might be having a reaction to it. When your baby has had a bowel movement use plain warm water and wash clothes or cotton balls to clean his or her bottom. Baby wipes can cause more irritation to an existing rash and some wipes contain alcohol, which is very drying to your baby?s skin.
Prevention of diaper rash
Prevention is the key to keeping diaper rash from occurring. Below are some ways of preventing diaper rash.

Fresh air: Give your baby?s bottom fresh air without diapers on as often as possible. With your baby?s skin being kept dry and clean you may never have to worry about diaper rash.
Cleanliness: Change your baby?s diapers as soon as they become wet or soiled. With your baby consistently having dry clean diapers on, the probability of diaper rash decreases substantially.
Cloth diapers: Studies have shown that the use of single use disposable diapers increases the likelihood of diaper rash. Consider using cloth diapers while you?re at home and use disposables when you are on the go and away from home.
Use mild detergents: Use a very mild detergent, such as Dreft when washing cloth diapers and wash clothes that are used to clean your baby?s bottom.
Introduce new foods carefully: When introducing new foods to your baby, stay on one particular food for at least 3 to 5 days. If your baby is allergic to a particular food, it will show up within this time frame

*Subject:Otak Kanan - Teknik Jepun - Shichida Methods...* 

Kelas yg di uruskan oleh Jepun melatih anak-anak befikir menggunakan otak sebelah kanan. Otak sebelah kanan ni lebih efektif sebenarmya dari otak sebelah kiri tetapi kena practise sikitlah penggunaannya. Kelas ni mahal, kosnye lebih tinggi dari kos satu semester kat ITM, tapi boss saya ni atas kesedaran bahawa ramai sgt **** yang pergi kelas tu utk ajar anak2 mereka dan melayu cuma setengah kerat sahaja...dia pun bersetuju ngan niat ikhlasnya untuk ajar saya dan *staff melayu yg lain.*

Saya pun nak kawan-kawan practisekan bende ni kat anak kawan-kawan, sebab baru seminggu saya buat kat anak saya...dah nampak keberkesanannya.*

1. Sewaktu anak nak tidur atau tidur-tidur ayam, cakap kat anak sepenuh hati dan sejujurnya yang kita sayang kat dia, dia budak baik, dia anak soleh, dia budak kuat, tak sakit, dia budak pandai dsb. Sbb semasa tidur-tidur ayam ni otak kanan sedang bekerja, otak kiri dah tidur dah, tapi kena buat seikhlas hati...kalau tengah marah ..tak jadi. kalau anak kawan-kawan tu dah tidur, ramas-ramas jari atau tangan dia, macam picitlah supaya dia kembali berada dalam tidur2 ayam. Saya buat kat anak saya sebab dia bangun pagi lambat pas tu siap melalak-lalak lagi, saya cakap hari-hari kat dia, dia budak baik, dia suka pergi sekolah, dia budak sihat, dia nak bangun awal....sekarang 6.30 dah bukak mata termasuk sabtu dan ahad.

2. Start guna cards untuk ajar anak. Saya ajar ABC-Z guna card seminggu sahaja, sekarang dah kenal semua huruf dah siap boleh eja perkataan pendek-pendek.. buat card banyak-banyak dan tunjuk kat dia orang cepat-cepat..macam..a..b..c..d..e, insya Allah cepat dia dapat sebab bila kita tunjuk kad laju-laju atau cepat-cepat otak kanan dia bekerja keras untuk tangkap apa benda yang kita tunjuk tu...kita boleh buat card
1,2,3, gambar-gambar...potonglah gambar kat mana-mana dsb.

3. Gerak kerja tangan adalah hasil dari otak kanan, so ajar anak kawan-kawan main tanah liat, main water colour, melukis, gunting kertas, origami dsb. memang le kite yang kena mengemas tapi takpa. Satu lagi cuba kawan-kawan lukis gambar, contohnye rama2, tapi sebelah sahaja dan suruh die orang sambung lukis ikut apa yg kawan-kawan lukis tu kat sebelah lagi...ini pun dapat mengaktifkan penggunaan otak kanan....Kawan-kawan tau kenapa cina dan jepun  pandai-pandai....sebab depa makan guna chopstik...chopstik berfungsi mengaktifkan kerja tangan and as well gerakkan otak kanan.

4. Jgn marah-marah atau tengking anak, sebab depa boleh simpan  semuanya dalam otak kiri. Kalau termarah, cuba kembali kat cara no 1 tadi, and minta maaf kat dia.

5. Satu lagi bina dan ransang imiginasi mereka dengan bercerita kepada mereka dan suruh mereka sambung cerita tersebut, walaupun cerita itu memang lah merapu , tapi tidak mengapa, kita pun bukan tak biasa merapu. J

6. Main teka-teki dengan mereka, letak satu barang dalam kotak tisu, dan suruh mereka  teka apa barang tersebut. First few times boleh bagi option macam....bagi tau colour, bunyi, lama-lama mereka boleh meransang dan membina ‘six sense by concentrating’ mereka boleh teka apa benda dlm kotak tisu tersebut.  Ini semua utk aktifkan otak sebelah kanan. Tapi ingat.....semua game yg kawan-kawan nak  buat dengan anak2 cuma boleh buat setengah jam sehari..tak perlu lama-lama.*

Sebelum buat exercise ni, kena tarik nafas dalam-dalam and relaks...tak boleh buat time tengah nak masak, basuh kain, tengok tv , tak  menjadi. Buat kena ikhlas, and merendah diri sikitlah bila dah mahir.  Ini semua satu cara yang Tuhan lagi Maha Mengetahui kalau Dia izin anak kita nak pandai Alhamdulillah tapi kita kena berusaha, dan bersyukur kalau dah berhasil sebab bila2 Dia boleh tarik balik.. try lagi ni...*

Lagi satu untuk berkongsi sesama pembaca....

Kaunselor UTM, Dr, Syed Mohd. Shafek pun ada memberi penerangan tenetang perkara yang sama dan ada menyebut tentang ‘jangan’ kepada anak-anak. Jika kita banyak sangat
menggunakan perkataan jangan kepada anak-anak, itu lah yang anak akan buat.  Gunakan perkataan lain untuk menggantikan perkataan ‘jangan’ contohnya :

‘Tolong senyap Abang’, berbanding ‘Jangan bising , abang’.

Dlm Islam sendiripun menggalakkan kita ibubapa bercakap/berdoa dgn anak2 ketika mereka dlm proses untuk tidur kerana pada ketika itulah di antara waktu2 doa dimakbulkan.
