Not only do adults find it difficult to take a bath, but parents with babies are always entangled in the question of whether to take a bath for their babies.
I always feel a little dirty if I don't take a shower for a few days. I should give the baby a bath to make it sleep more comfortably and soundly. Wash it, and worry that taking a shower will make the baby sick.
In fact, one of the most worrying problems for parents to bathe their babies this season is that they catch cold when taking a bath.
Then as long as this problem is solved, you don't have to worry about bathing your baby.
In order to avoid catching a cold, parents can master these skills.
That is, how often to take a bath, the temperature changes greatly in spring, which may be close to 20 degrees today and will drop below zero tomorrow, so the bathing frequency in this season can refer to the changes of weather and temperature.
In the north, it is relatively cold this season;
The southern region may be warmer than 20 degrees every day. You can also arrange a bath for your baby according to the normal rhythm.
That is, when to give the baby a bath?
There is no fixed answer to this question, so it is suggested to look at the actual situation.
If it is a baby, the temperature is high and warm during the day, you can choose to bathe your baby in the afternoon 12- 3, so it is not easy to catch cold, and you can take a comfortable nap after washing.
If you are an older baby, you can play more and sweat more during the day, or you can choose to take a bath at night to keep warm.
Many parents have this experience: the baby is very happy after breastfeeding and in good condition, so they take the baby to take a bath. As a result, they vomited milk several times in the shower and burped all the time after washing.
Now is not the time to take a shower. For Xiao Baobao, there are many times of breastfeeding every day, and it is easy to spit milk. If you don't grasp the bathing time well, it will aggravate spitting milk.
Bathing your baby, it is best to arrive at 1 hour half an hour after breastfeeding, which can greatly reduce the occurrence of spitting milk; And take a bath when the baby is in good condition and easy to cooperate.
Preparing in advance has two purposes: one is to reduce the baby's cold and illness, and the other is to make the baby wash comfortably.
Preparation of articles before bathing: bathtub, bath toys, diapers, clean clothes, shampoo and shower gel, small towels, bath towels, moisturizing cream, oil touch (prepared according to actual needs), etc.
Room temperature and water temperature: the indoor temperature should be adjusted to 24-26, and the bath water temperature should be controlled at 37-39. Inexperienced parents can buy an indoor thermometer and water thermometer, which can be used more accurately.
Need to remind two small points:
If the bathroom is heated by Yuba, it is recommended to open it in advance, turn it off when the baby is taking a bath, or pay attention to shielding, and try not to let the baby's eyes touch strong light.
The water temperature must be adjusted in advance, the water temperature is too cold, and the baby is crying and not talking, which is easy to get sick; Overheating can easily burn the baby, and even make the baby afraid of taking a bath, which will increase the difficulty of taking a bath in the future.
Some parents feel comfortable soaking in warm water, and some babies love to take a bath, so let the baby take more baths.
In fact, bathing the baby is not as long as possible.
After a long bath, the water temperature will gradually drop. If you don't pay attention to heating the water, the baby will easily catch a cold and get sick.
Moreover, bathing is also a hard work. Although the baby is taking a bath with his parents, this process of "enjoying" will also make the baby very tired and should not be washed for too long.
The younger baby can take a bath for about 5 minutes, and the older baby can come out after washing, which is basically more than ten minutes.
Bathing the baby is not just about putting it in and washing it. There is a way.
For small-month babies, the bath should be cleaned in the order of "head and face-neck-upper limbs-chest-abdomen-groin-lower limbs".
When the newborn baby washes his hair and face, the adults hold it, dry it after washing, and then put the baby in the bathtub to clean other parts. Older babies can lie in the bathtub and wash their hair and face first, and then wash their bodies.
When put in the bathtub, put the baby's legs and feet in first to adapt to the mild water environment, and then slowly put all the babies in.
Taking it out of the water just after washing will make the baby feel very cold, so be sure to keep warm.
Prepare towels and bath towels in advance, wrap the baby, dry the body moisture, and then quickly apply moisturizer to the baby's whole body to lock in the moisture.
Red buttocks often appear, and babies who need to apply buttock cream also need to let the buttock skin dry naturally before applying it.
If it is a newborn, if it is not cold at home after taking a shower, you can also do massage and touch first, and then put on clothes, which is more conducive to the baby's physical development.
Every little detail of raising a child can't be ignored, otherwise it will make the baby suffer. How often do you bathe your baby in spring? How to keep warm in the shower? Welcome to share your experience and skills with your parents.
