How old is a baby in a week and a half

  Adults often habitually ask how old a baby is when they see them, but for babies who are not born for a long time, many parents may not be able to answer this question clearly, especially when converting the baby's birth days to years old. Parents often wonder, what is the age of a baby in a week and a half?

  

How old is a baby in a week and a half1

  When babies are still young, there is no such thing as a false year like adults. Both doctors and individuals use one year to calculate the age of babies. Therefore, a baby who is one and a half weeks old is 0 years old, and it is only called one year old when it reaches one year old. At one and a half weeks after birth, babies may have already begun to open up, with their faces more relaxed than when they were first born, and their skin not as red as when they were first born. Therefore, at this time, babies can initially see their eyebrows and eyes, and their appearance begins to develop towards a fair and beautiful appearance.

  Don't be fooled by the fact that the baby may only be born for a week and a half. During this week and a half, the baby will also grow significantly, and their weight will be more noticeable. This is because at this time, the baby spends most of their time either breastfeeding or sleeping, both of which are physical growth behaviors. Therefore, the baby's growth can be described as very rapid. Before six months, it is a high-speed stage of growth, and after six months, the growth rate will slow down.

  Therefore, parents should not feel that their baby is always sleeping when they are one and a half weeks old, so they always want to wake up and play with the baby, or think that the baby's constant sleep during the week and a half is a sign of lack of energy. If the baby is always artificially woken up, it may cause poor rest, affect normal growth and development, and even have a significant impact on the baby's health. Parents need to be careful to avoid it.
