<li>If you are going on vacation and cannot carry your pet, take the following precautions that suggests a veterinary doctor.</li>
</ul>
Are you ready for the holidays? If you plan to leave for a few days outside the home, either domestic destinations or international, you must think of what to do with your pet. One of the options is to take it with you, but many times the obstacles in the aircraft and the standards of the hotels, which complicate the matter. 
Pets suffer when the master is away from home, whether for a few days or weeks. It is not enough just to leave them enough food and water, because the pets need a little more than that. “Dogs and cats can not live without the care of their masters or persons in charge for long periods. Are not autovalentes, as they need fresh water every day and proper food. Not to be left moored for long periods, as it is very stressful for them,” warns Dr. Sylvia Arrau, a professor of the career of Veterinary Medicine of the University of the Pacific. 
Therefore, the specialist is not recommended to leave the pet alone in the home, but it is better to ask another person for their care. “In the event that the absence is a week or more, it is advisable to leave your pet under the care of a neighbor or responsible relative. It is important to this point, because a dog, especially in an unfamiliar environment, you can try to escape, trying to locate its owner.Pets become depressed and suffer from separation, generating pathologies of behavior that can have serious consequences in relations with their masters, so you have to be careful where they are left during the holidays and for how long,” says dra. Arrau. 
Since already some years ago, hotels for animals are becoming a real alternative for owners who go on vacation for long periods and who want to ensure that your pet is well cared for. However, the veterinary called to take enough precautions with these places. “There are some hotels that consider animal welfare in any sense, while others are not so good. The masters should verify before the specific place where dwell the pet, if you have recreational facilities and qualified personnel, if there is an available veterinarian for emergencies, especially for older animals or in treatment,” she suggests. 
In the hotels for animals are frequently observed large cages and that is why we must be attentive to those details when you decide to leave the pet there. “There are places where you are all the time within a cage, which generates a great deal of stress. It is important to take the food to which it is accustomed to the animal, so there are no sudden changes. There are to wear it too with all their vaccinations and antiparasitic treatment of the day. Do not forget the vaccine against kennel cough, a disease that although is not usually serious, it is very contagious at places such as hotels and pet-breeding facilities”, concludes the faculty of Veterinary Medicine of the University of the Pacific.

<h2>
This complementary treatment helps to relieve discomfort that occur with some diseases. It is also good for pregnant women, children, and babies.</h2>
The Bach flower therapy is based on the studies done by dr. Edward Bach, between the years 1926 and 1934, and is used as a supplement to heal problems or diseases. There are 38 flowers that influence according to the emotions of the people and cater for their different ailments. 
From a cancer that was diagnosed, Bach began to do research, where he discovered that the flowers had better properties than the plant itself, in addition to realize that each flower had a personality, like people. 
Thus, for each patient there is a flower other than for treatment, according to the discomfort that you have. When there is a disease, there is a desarmonización on the mental plane and emotional. All the ailments of the physical body because the mind and the emotion are sick. The flower of Bach harmonizes and pulls out what does not serve. 
“The doctors have now realized that the DNA of the flowers and of the human being are practically the same. In terms of flora, the flower is the most developed, as in the fauna is to be human, that's why they complement each other and help”, says Maria del Pilar Dois, a therapist in flowers of Bach, titled in Chile and in the Bach Center in England. 
<h3>

Cut the flower and put it in pots of glass with water. Leave it in the sun for a number of days, in the evenings, are saved, and in the day again are taken. This procedure is performed until the flower releases its essence, which is mixed with a brandy special, which is made to stabilize the flower, preventing it to rot. The result of all this, it is the mother tincture. 
Bach flower remedies for pregnant women, infants, and children 
 
The specialist recommends this treatment especially for pregnant women. For example, a mom-to-be have swollen legs, if given a diuretic, will probably relieve the ailment, but it is not going to know why you are retaining fluid. If it is measured under the diagnosis of Reiki, the woman is really scared to be pregnant. This scare is handled by the kidney, which is the organ that releases the fear, in addition to the urine. In this way, using a flower of Bach in order to stop those fears. 
Can also help babies achieve sleep and for the treatment of children with hyperactivity or attention deficit disorder. María del Pilar Dois, recommends that in the case of the sessions for the children, the interview you will perform first the minor, then the mother, since it is the child that will set the tone about what type of flower to use. 
“In all that is a complementary medicine it is essential that the person wants to improve. The flower harmonizes in a soft manner, it will level out,” says the therapist.

The pregnant woman's nutrition is a topic that many times is taken lightly. During these months, your body will begin to change, you will need more protein and iron to help prevent anemia. Nutritionist Gloria Rebolledo explains to us on the subject. 
According to a study released by the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile, the risk factor maternal nutritional is high in developing countries. In our country, in both, of 344 mothers with newborn babies to term and without conditions, only 54% had nutritional characteristics prior to pregnancy, defined as normal, 35% were enflaquecidas and a 11% had overweight and obesity. 
“Maternal weight prior to pregnancy is a longer-term indicator of the nutritional status of newborns. Mothers who start pregnancy underweight, have babies that are of lower weight at the end of the period, and in the case of mothers with overweight and obesity, their children have a greater weight,” says Gloria Rebolledo. 
You have to consider that a woman's obesity during the period of gestation can: 
<ul>
<li>Present problems such as high weight of the newborn.</li>
<li>Birth complications and the possibility that the mother increase even more your weight at the end of the pregnancy.</li>
</ul>
<h2>
How should be the power supply?</h2>
The professional explains that it is not necessary to eat more during pregnancy, since during the first trimester, the intake should stay relatively normal, in the next period, the requirement increases by less than 10% of the total of a woman who is not pregnant. 
<h2>
Some things that should be taken into account</h2>
<ul>
<li>The weight gain is optimal for a pregnant woman fluctuates between 11 and 16 kilos, this considering favorable conditions before conception.</li>
<li>It is essential that you keep your doctor in order to protect the power supply in the pregnancy from the first month, resulting in all-important prenatal care.</li>
<li>In special situations of malnutrition, overweight or obesity on maternal, will be the specialist who will provide the guidelines according to your condition.</li>
</ul>
<h3>
Eat well and healthy: meat and fish</h3>
The meats are indispensable as sources of proteins and minerals, for example, iron and zinc. The nutritionist recommended for those on low-fat cuts such as the bb black, pink, seat, choclillo, chicken, goose, tapapecho and steak. In terms of the chicken and the turkey, cook them and eat them without the skin.

“Iron is essential to prevent anemia ferropriva during pregnancy, the requirement increases considerably during this period remain difficult to cover it through the diet and is more complicated if there is a deficiency prior to pregnancy,” added the specialist.

It is important that parents understand that every baby is a little person is different and grows and develops in their own way and at their own pace. We will explain to you how to interpret the signs of a baby. 
Parents should establish an intense relationship and close with the children from their first months of life, as this will be the basis of your learning, as well as their healthy growth and development. 
<h2>
How to interpret the signs of a baby</h2>
<ul>
<li>Some specialists claim that there are research that have proven that babies are listeners who are passionate about nature, since during the first months of life the child learns to establish a closer relationship between the sounds of the human voice and its origin. It is important that parents talk to the children constantly, this will help you to develop your skills.</li>
<li>Oddly enough the babies from their first months of life and love know that you appreciate their efforts. When your baby babble, shadow him or talk to him as if he could understand everything that you say. Long before uttering your first word full, you will understand hundreds of words, thanks to those early conversations.</li>
<li>Allow her to grab things, hit, and shake objects that are not sharp, this will help to keep the control in your hands.</li>
<li>Make sure that all the objects grab they are clean and they are big enough to not fit entirely in the mouth.</li>
<li>It is important to choose a toy that emits sounds very subtle each time they are grasped by the child.</li>
<li>As children grow they need to spend more energy within the body. When you observe that your baby has their eyes large and bulging, it gives a kick while at the same time shrinks your arms, and also makes a kind of screaming mixed with a smile, then it is indicating that it is ready to play.</li>

The drowning is the second leading cause of death in children under 18 years in Chile and the world. Facemamá presents you with a modern system to protect your children from the pools. 
In Chile, one thousand one hundred children die each year because of various accidents. 25 percent of them are accidents on board of cars, and 20 percentage points, the second place is suffocation by immersion. That is to say, the death of infants, especially under five years of age, by submersion in a liquid medium. 
“This means that 220 to 230 children a year die for this reason, in Chile. That is, more or less, 0, 75 small to the day, that is to say, two children each three days”, accurate, with concern, the pediatrician and expert in child safety, dr Carlos Hinzpeter. 
Currently the market offers different alternatives for maximum safety in your swimming pool: 
<ul>
<li>One of the most well-known is the grate, which must completely enclose the enclosure and whose approximate height you must get to a metro and 30, with a spacing of eight inches between the bars.</li>
<li>In addition, you should avoid leaving any item that will allow a child to skip protection and suffer in the same way an accident.</li>
</ul>
The face of this disturbing situation, Hemel Productions brought to Chile a modern device which in Canada won the prestigious Innovation Award in 2004. This is Safety Turtle, an alarm that indicates the precise moment in which your child has been submerged in the water. 
<h2>
Safety Turtle</h2>
It is a bracelet-shaped watch, and a fun turtle that you have to put the child in his wrist. Is subject thanks to a special wrench by means of a single click, keeps the bracelet secured to the small.

In turn, the device is wirelessly connected to a Base Station. It can be placed up to 60 meters of the pool; in the event that you don't have sockets nearby or you are in a lagoon, has a battery that you can recharge in the car. 
When your child begins to use the bracelet, you'll see that: “If it is splashed with water nothing will happen, but at the time to drown in the pool, it will begin to sound an alarm that reaches 110 decibels, and that does not cease until you go along to him, I pull out the bracelet and dry it,” says the doctor. 
By purchasing this product you will notice that the Base Station has no expiry date, although if the wristbands. These are changed every five years, the approximate period that lasts the battery that contain, precisely because before the 12 months is very unlikely that the child fall in the water, because it does not walk. “The risk arises from the year of life and up to six, since usually a child of five or six years knows how to swim,” says pediatrician and expert in child safety.

We care for our children, for their well being and above all by power, to create habits in your daily diet is a routine that should start from very small, however, or pressuring children to eat or restrict food it is a good idea. 
It is not a new practice, the fact of forcing children to eat, from many years ago, our parents also we were forced to eat what was left on the plate. However, specialists have pointed out that this is not correct, since the child knows when and how much you need to eat. 
In this regard, the dietitian, nutritionist, and writer of several books; Julio Basulto, suggests that: “we must not insist that our children eat something they don't want, the more amount of you want or faster than you can”. Be insistent and violent when creating eating habits, we'll only be creating negative results. 
<h3>
Why we should not force the child to eat?</h3>
<ul>
<li>When we force the child to eat what you don't want to, in them can have unwanted effects, and a great proof of this is the overweight or obesity.</li>
<li>It is also possible that the child adopts behaviors of type a purgative.</li>
<li>The obesity also adhere to cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes.</li>
</ul>
Also, a research found that parents of children with overweight have to restrict the intake of food which is not beneficial for the boys, on the other hand, the parents of those children with normal weight or “under weight”, are the ones who mostly require them to eat more than the body of the infant can tolerate. 
<h3>
Habitual behaviors that we should avoid</h3>
<ul>
<li>Threatening the child.</li>
<li>Make you feel bad.</li>
<li>Telling lies for you to eat.</li>
<li>Pressing down or insistirle.</li>
<li>Scare them</li>
<li>Mistreatment, by physical and psychologically.</li>
</ul>
<h3>
What do you do to eat?</h3>
<ul>
<li>Give it time, because each child eats in their own way and at their own pace.</li>
<li>Offering food or new recipes.</li>
<li>Avoid distractions when eating.</li>
<li>Eat as a family, and above all, give the example.</li>

Do you inherit the children the trauma of their parents?

It has been shown that all of those traumas suffered by the parents, directly influence the genes, and these transmit changes directly to the children. 
Studies confirm that if the parents were victims of the nazi holocaust, famine, severe, traumatic accidents, or incidents, disruptive, have a higher predisposition to heredarle diseases to the children. 
<h3>
What trauma or genetic legacy?</h3>
This is because, those experiences affect your DNA and this in turn is transmitted to the children, therefore, they would be born with loads biological legacy, however, this does not define the temperament and personality of the infant, it is possible to modify this load giving a loving environment and stimulating, as the child would be born with those positive experiences that they have lived in the parents. 
It should be noted that all those emotions that you experience during the mother's pregnancy, are also transmitted to the baby. 
A study conducted by a team of researchers from the Hospital Mount Sinai, in New York, united States, presented a clear example of how the epigenetic inheritance affects the genes of the children and even the generations following. “This is the first evidence in humans -of which we have knowledge - of an epigenetic mark in the offspring based on the exposure of parents before conception,”says Yehuda, part of the team of specialists. 
<h3>
What is epigenetics?</h3>
Although his theory caused a bit of controversy, is defined as the style of life of the person (environment, smoking, stress, experiences, food) that can cause genetic changes in the offspring and influence their development. 
Although this scientifically proven that the only way to transmit biological information in the offspring is through the genes that are within the DNA, these can be modified by the presence or influence of the environment, by means of a kind of chemical label (the epigenome), which achieves to join at the DNA and functions as a switch, that is to say, modifies expression of genes. 
Although the experts still not able to establish how to produce the transmission, have concluded that “the children of parents with post-traumatic stress disorder are probably more prone to depression, while the opposite effect seems to occur in the children of mothers who suffer from the same disorder”.

Challenges of being a mother for the second time</h2>

The baby creatures are really fragile and care must be exhaustive, it is true that they can be on the ground and perform certain stimulating activities to benefit their development, psycho-motor, but it is necessary to take precautions to avoid illness in the baby. 
The odds that a baby will get sick more easily than an adult is due to several factors, however, we will be specific with the fact that the child spends time on the floor, and this place can be full of infections; the same dose of a substance may be harmless to an adult, but very harmful to a baby.

<ul>
<li>Indoor air contaminated</li>
</ul>
Babies spend much of their time inside the house, which is not exempt from some pollutants: 
<ul>
<li>Carbon monoxide: this gas is produced when fuels are burned and can enter the home in many ways: by the stoves or heaters oil without exhaust vents adequate; wood burning stoves; gas stoves or other appliances that are not regulated.</li>
<li>Benzopineros: with the incomplete combustion of tobacco or timber, appear organic particles such as tar. This substance can produce various diseases, such as: irritation of eyes, nose and throat, asthma, bronchitis, emphysema, and cancer.</li>
<li>Fumes various: it is common that at the time of cleaning, use cleaning fluids such as aerosols or paints that can be highly toxic.</li>
<li>Formaldehyde: there are many products that contain this substance, such as: the resin of the synthetic wood that made the furniture, or the gluing of decorative fabrics. This gas can cause: respiratory problems, rashes, nausea, among other symptoms.</li>
<li>Mold: in humid places it is easy to the appearance of fungi that can cause respiratory problems, bronchitis, and other diseases in children.</li>
<li>Radon: this colorless, odorless and radioactive, occurs naturally by the decay of uranium in rocks and soils. Its inhalation can cause lung cancer.</li>

Tips for weaning

Many reasons can cause us to have to shorten the time period recommended for breastfeeding and opt for the feeding bottle; either by extraction of milk or by supplementary feeding (formula), even when specialists are advised to extend breastfeeding up to two years of life. 
<h3>
Natural weaning</h3>
There are cases in which the children are still feeding on the mother's breast exceeding six months, until they voluntarily decide to leave it, and others, for their part, end the feeding before two years of age or before six months. 
Weaning for many decades has been a reason of frequent consultation as many times the baby just wants to get breast and not nipple. 
This situation produces anguish on the mothers who must enter the work and also creates stress when you leave for a time greater than the hours in that given chest. In this regard, the pediatrician Mariela Muñoz, of the Clinical Hospital of the University of Chile provides us with important information for a weaning respectful. 
<h3>
Weaning respectful</h3>
If your baby has just been born, you have to use any strategy that serves to maintain breastfeeding, either stimulating milk production as: 
<ul>
<li>Sulpiride.</li>
<li>Bioactiv-L.</li>
<li>Protectors poppies.</li>
<li>Pacifier tensioner nipple.</li>
</ul>
If you already tried everything and still you are unable to breastfeed, remember that you need to feed your newborn with expressed milk or formula infant formula and use of pacifiers over silicone, you have to wash it with liquid detergent and boiling it 5 minutes before use. 
<h3>
The transition</h3>
The stage of weaning may not necessarily be easy, it is important that before the mother is aware of some facts that can occur when you do this, so that you are not taken off guard. Ideally this transition should be done between 6 months and one year of life, on the other hand it then becomes increasingly difficult. 
<ul>
<li>Anticipate the moment: the idea that it will not be sudden, let him to play before the bottle, so you will know first and will not be so strange when the passes filled with milk.</li>
<li>Generate schedules: create a habit of bottle feeding always at the same time and in an environment pleasant and quiet.</li>
<li>Enjoy the moment: it is a beautiful insatancia to share and enjoy in family</li>
<li>Do it as a routine: you must not show that it is very important to show you the bottle for the first time , don't show anxiety that the take.</li>
<li> That is not the mother to give the bottle: Try and make sure the first few times he gives it to dad or another close person who is not a mother, so you will not feel desire to take chest to be close to his mother.</li>
<li>Give him bottle when he is hungry: that is, do not give him anything to eat or drink prior to the bottles (less maternal breast), so it can't reject it, because you will feel desire to feed.</li>
<li>Dale expressed milk of the mother: If this is not possible you prefer milk initiation or continuation, depending on the age of the infant.</li>
<li>Rehearse with another liquid previously: as you may be to reject the content more than the container. If you put expressed milk, you are going to prefer the breast, but with another liquid (water, fruit juice) then you can accept it with more ease.</li>
<li>Stay away from the place where the little one is eating: If your child listens to you or you feel even when you're not in the room, they will give account of your nearness and prefer the chest.</li>

The eyes are of mother, the nose is from the father, just like his little sister, and all of that kinship that we find in the newborn seemed to be a “game of chance”, however, researchers have confirmed that those who contributes more genetically to the newborn, are the parents. <h2>What is inherited from the parents?</h2> Physical traits and factions. In this sense we are referring to the eye color, voice, texture and even the amount of hair, also, the children inherit the fathers moles, blemishes of the skin, and the shape of the fingers of the feet. Gestures. In addition to inherited genetics, are also born with the skills for learning, although studies have confirmed that children inherit intelligence from mother, apparently the pace of development depends on the genetic dad. Tics: human beings have a host of tics and grimaces, that we have developed by watching our parents, the same thing happens with our babies, they adopt and imitate our tricks, so fasten the chin, tighten the ear, winking the eye, or to bite the lips, are tics that are inherited from the parents. Skills. Certain skills such as spreading the fingers of the feet and close in a circle, the tongue is only inherited from the father, even, if you try to do it with your partner, you will realize who can do so with greater skill, or performance. Diseases. A large number of diseases are inherited, including: problems of hypertension, cholesterol and cancer, and although we do not want to inherit this kind of conditions, naturally happens as well. Temperament. Personality and temperament is not the same, although, the personality is still malleable and is constructed throughout of the childhood, the temperament or character is a quality that is inherited.
