Ukulala kunye nosana lwakho okanye umntwana oselula kuyinto eqhelekileyo, kodwa akukhuselekanga.I-AAP (i-American Academy of Pediatrics) icebisa ngokuchasene nayo.Makhe sijonge nzulu kwiingozi zokulala kunye kunye neenzuzo.

 

UKULALA KUNYE INGOZI

Ngaba ungacinga (ukhuselekile) ngokulala kunye nosana lwakho?

Ukususela oko i-AAP (i-American Academy of Pediatrics) yacetyiswa ngamandla ngokuchasene nayo, ukulala ngokubambisana kuye kwaba yinto abazali abaninzi abayoyikayo.Nangona kunjalo, uphando lubonisa ukuba ukuya kuthi ga kwi-70% yabo bonke abazali bazise iintsana zabo kunye nabantwana abadala kwibhedi yeentsapho zabo ubuncinane ngamaxesha athile.

Ukulala kunye ngokwenene kuza nomngcipheko, ngakumbi ukonyuka komngcipheko we-Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.Zikho nezinye iingozi ezinjengokufuthaniselwa, ukukrwitshwa, nokubanjiswa.

Yonke le yimingcipheko enzulu ekufuneka iqwalaselwe kwaye iphathwe ukuba ucinga ngokulala kunye nosana lwakho.

 

IINZUZO ZOKULALA

Ngelixa ukulala ngokubambisana kuza nemingcipheko, kukwanezinye izibonelelo ezinomtsalane ngakumbi xa ungumzali odiniweyo.Ukuba oku bekungenjalo, kunjalo, ukulala ngokubambisana bekungayi kuba yinto eqhelekileyo.

Eminye imibutho, efana ne-Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine, ixhasa ukwabelana ngebhedi nje kuphela imithetho yokulala ekhuselekileyo (njengoko ichazwe ngezantsi) ilandelwa.Batsho ukuba "Ubungqina obukhoyo abusixhasi isigqibo sokuba ukwabelana ngebhedi phakathi kweentsana ezincancisayo (oko kukuthi, ukulala kwebele) kubangela isifo sokufa komntwana ngokukhawuleza (SIDS) ngokungabikho kweengozi ezaziwayo..”(Ireferensi ifunyenwe ngezantsi kwenqaku)

Iintsana, kwakunye nabantwana abadadlana, badla ngokulala bhetele xa belele ecaleni kwabazali babo.Iintsana nazo zihlala zilala ngokukhawuleza xa zilele ecaleni komzali wazo.

Abazali abaninzi, ngakumbi oomama abatsha abancancisayo ebusuku, bafumana ubuthongo obuninzi ngokugcina umntwana elele embhedeni wabo.

Ukuncancisa ebusuku kulula xa umntwana elele ecaleni kwakho njengoko kungekho kuvuka ngalo lonke ixesha ukuze athathe umntwana.

Kwakhona kuboniswa ukuba ukulala ngokubambisana kuhambelana nokutya okuqhelekileyo ebusuku, ukukhuthaza ukuveliswa kobisi.Izifundo ezininzi zikwabonisa ukuba ukwabelana ngebhedi kunxulunyaniswa neenyanga ezininzi zokuncancisa.

Abazali abalalayo bahlala besithi ukulala ecaleni komntwana wabo kuyabathuthuzela kwaye kubenza bazive besondele kusana lwabo.

 

10 IZIKHOKELO ZOKUNCIPHISA UMNGCIPHEKO WOKULALA

Kutshanje, i-AAP ihlengahlengise izikhokelo zayo zokulala, ivuma into yokuba ukulala ngokubambisana kusenzeka.Maxa wambi umama odiniweyo uyalala xa encancisa, kungakhathaliseki ukuba uzama kangakanani ukuhlala ephaphile.Ukunceda abazali ukuba banciphise iingozi xa belala nosana lwabo ngaxa lithile, i-AAP ibonelele ngezikhokelo zokulala.

Kufuneka kukhankanywe ukuba i-AAP isagxininisa ukuba eyona ndlela yokulala ekhuselekileyo kukuba umntwana alale kwigumbi lokulala labazali, kufuphi nebhedi yabazali kodwa kwindawo eyahlukileyo eyenzelwe iintsana.Kwakhona kucetyiswa ngamandla ukuba umntwana alale kwigumbi lokulala labazali ubuncinane kude kube ziinyanga ezi-6 ubudala, kodwa ngokufanelekileyo kude kube ngumhla wokuzalwa wokuqala womntwana.

Nokuba umntwana uyancanciswa, ingozi ye-SIDS iyanda xa kwabiwa ibhedi ukuba umntwana ungaphantsi kweenyanga ezi-4.Ukuncancisa kubonakaliswe ukunciphisa umngcipheko we-SIDS.Nangona kunjalo, ukuncancisa akukwazi ukukhusela ngokupheleleyo kumngcipheko ophezulu oza nokwabelana ngebhedi.

Xa umntwana wakho esemncinci, umngcipheko we-SIDS uyancipha kakhulu, ngoko ke ukulala kunye kuloo minyaka kukhuseleke ngakumbi.

 

2. AKUTSHAYA, IZIYOBISI, OKANYE UTYWALA

Ukutshaya kubhalwe kakuhle ukonyusa umngcipheko weSIDS.Ngoko ke, iintsana ezisele zisemngciphekweni omkhulu we-SIDS ngenxa yemikhwa yokutshaya yabazali babo azifanele zilale nabazali bazo (nokuba abazali abatshayi kwigumbi lokulala okanye ebhedini).

Kuyafana nokuba umama utshaye ngexesha lokukhulelwa.Ngokutsho kophando, umngcipheko we-SIDS mkhulu ngokuphindwe kabini kwiintsana ezinoomama abatshayayo ngexesha lokukhulelwa.Imichiza esemsini iphazamisa amandla osana okuvuka, ngokomzekelo, ebudeni bokuphelelwa umoya.

Utywala, iziyobisi, kunye namayeza athile akwenza ulale nzima kwaye ke ngoko kukubeka emngciphekweni wokwenzakalisa usana lwakho okanye ukungavuki ngokukhawuleza ngokwaneleyo.Ukuba ukuphapha kwakho okanye ukukwazi ukusabela ngokukhawuleza kuphazamisekile, musa ukulala kunye nosana lwakho.

Kuye kwaphawulwa ukuba oomama abancancisayo bathabatha indawo ethile ebizwa ngokuba yi-C (“cuddle curl”) xa belele neentsana zabo ukuze intloko yosana ibe ngaphaya kwebele likamama, yaye iingalo nemilenze kamama ijikelezwe usana.Kubalulekile ukuba umntwana alale emqolo, nokuba umama ukwi-C-position, kwaye akukho mandlalo avulekileyo ebhedini.NgokweAcademy of Breastfeeding Medicine, le yeyona ndawo ifanelekileyo yokulala ekhuselekileyo.

I-Akhademi ye-Breastfeeding Medicine ikwachaza ukuba "Akukho bungqina obaneleyo bokwenza iingcebiso kubantu abaninzi ababelana ngeebhedi okanye indawo yosana ebhedini malunga nabazali bobabini ngaphandle kweemeko ezinobungozi."

EZINYE IINDLELA ZOKUBHEDA KWENSAPHO

Uphando lubonisa ukuba ukwabelana ngegumbi ngaphandle kokwabelana ngebhedi kwehlisa umngcipheko we-SIDS ukuya kuthi ga kwi-50%.Ukubeka umntwana kwindawo yakhe yokulala ukuze alale kukwanciphisa umngcipheko wokufuthaniselwa, ukukrwitshwa, kunye nokubanjiswa okunokwenzeka xa usana kunye nomzali (abazali) belala ngebhedi.

Ukugcina umntwana wakho kwigumbi lakho lokulala kufuphi nawe kodwa kwi-crib yabo okanye i-bassinet yindlela efanelekileyo yokuphepha umngcipheko wokwabelana ngebhedi, kodwa kukuvumela ukuba ugcine umntwana wakho esondele.

Enye inketho kukusebenzisa uhlobo oluthile lwe-co-sleeping bassinet ejolise ekudaleni indawo yokulala ekhuselekileyo yomntwana wakho.Iza ngeendlela ezahlukeneyo zokuyila, ezifana nendlwane ye-snuggle apha (ikhonkco kwi-Amazon) okanye ebizwa ngokuba yi-wahakura okanye i-Pepi-pod, ixhaphake kakhulu eNew Zealand.Zonke zinokubekwa ebhedini yakho.Ngaloo ndlela, umntwana wakho uhlala kufuphi nawe kodwa ukhuselekile kwaye unendawo yakhe yokulala.

I-Wahakura yi-bassinet eyenziwe ngeflakisi, ngelixa i-Pepi-pod yenziwe ngeplastiki ye-polypropylene.Zombini zingafakwa umatrasi, kodwa umatrasi kufuneka ubenobukhulu obufanelekileyo.Kufuneka kungabikho zithuba phakathi komandlalo kunye namacala e-wahakura okanye e-Pepi-pod kuba umntwana unokuqengqeleka aze avaleleke kwisikhewu.

Ukuba uthatha isigqibo sokusebenzisa ilungiselelo le-sidecar, i-wahakura, i-Pepi-pod, okanye efanayo, qiniseka ukuba usalandela izikhokelo zokulala ngokukhuselekileyo.
