Friends, what is the coolest thing about winter?
Of course, when you come home with the cold wind, open the bath and take a warm and dry hot bath!
But the news of the other day made McCard buzz:
You really can't wash it in the shower!
Adults take a bath in winter, bathe for about 20 minutes, and shower for 5 to 10 minutes.
The water temperature for bathing should be controlled between 38 ° C and 40 ° C.
Not only can adults not wash indiscriminately, but children must pay more attention to bathing!
There may be parents who say, just take a bath, where is so much exquisite?
This is really not a hard point, but a past case, so that we have to be cautious!
What should children pay attention to when bathing?
How to heat up safely and not get cold?
Does your baby need to bathe every day?
Today, I will make it clear that I bathed my baby!
It can be said that you want to know, all in this article!
When it comes to bathing in winter, parents are worried, a little inattentive, the child is snotty, cold to find the door!
So how to take a bath so that the child does not get cold? It is nothing more than to do these 4 points well!
Control the temperature
The room temperature is best kept at about 26 ° C, and the water temperature is adjusted according to the age of the baby:
But don't test your own hands, elbows, or the inside of your wrists with human flesh!
On the one hand, the tolerance level of adults is not the same as that of children, and the temperature you think is just right may not be suitable for babies.
On the other hand, in case the temperature is too hot, it is not cost-effective to burn yourself.
It is best to have a thermometer. (Not the kind of ha that measures body temperature, measures the water temperature, a treasure search is everywhere!) ）
And be careful not to get cold in the middle of the water, just add hot water directly to the basin!
One is that the temperature is not easy to grasp, and the other is that the hot water is not mixed and directly contacts the baby, and the chance of burns is very large.
If the temperature of the bath water is too high, in addition to scalding the baby, it will also endanger the reproductive system development of the male baby.
Parents are better off going straight to the point, washing and flushing, and not letting their children linger too much in the tub.
Get the time
Experts recommend that the best bath time is 10 to 15 minutes, too long bathing time can cause the skin to lose water and dry.
If the child's skin is already in a relatively dry state, it will take 5-10 minutes to let the baby out of the bath.
Even if there is floor heating or heating equipment in place at home, children cannot be allowed to "play in the water" for too long, at most 5 minutes, and the total duration should not exceed 20 minutes.
Pay attention to the frequency of bathing
Bathing can cleanse the skin, prevent bacterial infections, and promote metabolism. If possible, you can bathe your baby every day.
If conditions do not allow it, it is also possible to wash it several times a week.
Parents in the north can wash their babies at least 1-2 times a week;
Parents in the south wash their babies at least 2-3 times a week.
Finally, it should be emphasized that when the baby bathes, parents should not leave halfway.
With only 2 to 3 cm of water in the basin, it can cause your baby to drown. Don't think that leaving for a few seconds, tens of seconds is not a big problem.
This similar tragedy has happened a lot, we must pay attention to it!
Warm
To bathe the child, the temperature of the bathroom is critical.
Although there is heating in the north, the temperature may still be low when the baby bathes, not to mention the south.
Therefore, heating equipment such as bath masters and small suns have also become essential artifacts for winter bathing!
◆ Bath bully
The light of the bath bully is too strong, which is irritating to the eyes of small babies under 1 year old and sleeping on their backs.
Parents can: turn on the warm-up in advance and turn it off when the baby is bathing.
If the temperature of the bath master is not enough, it must be open all the time, and you can play an umbrella with a blackout effect on the top of your head to protect your eyes.
◆ Small sun
Previously, some parents asked that when they dress their children, they will use a small sun, but what if the small sun is very dazzling?
Of course, let the teammates or family come to help cover the point.
Like the following news, it is a perfect example:

◆ Oil ingotine
In such a damp place as the bathroom, it is not recommended to use an oil tank.
Water splashed on the oil tank during the bath and water vapor in the bathroom may short-circuit the electrical part of the oil tank.
You can put it in the bedroom or living room for warmth, but be careful not to let your child get close.
In addition to the temperature at the time of bathing, parents should also prepare their children's change of clothes in advance and warm up;
The room where the clothes are changed should also be guaranteed to have a suitable temperature...
Bathing is a small thing, but bathing your child is a big deal, so try to get your family involved to help!
Don't help when you take a shower, the child has a cold and complains.
Parents of large babies believe that they are already very experienced in bathing.

In addition to the problem of taking a bath to cause a cold, there are also some reminders every year, and the situation that occurs every year needs to be paid attention to!
Take, for example, a medicinal bath.
There are elderly people in the family who may believe in folk remedies, and use what xx leaves and xx grass to bathe children.
Not to mention whether the medicinal bath is effective or not, the medicinal ingredients in the medicinal bath have a stimulating effect on the skin, and some drugs are toxic and endanger the health of the baby.
In the matter of medicinal baths, do not blindly follow the trend.
In addition to the medicinal bath, in these 3 cases, it is not recommended to bathe the child!
When the baby is hungry, do not take a bath.
It can cause cerebral ischemia and hypoxia, dizziness and even fainting.
It is not okay to have just eaten, after feeding/feeding (within 30 minutes).
When you have just finished eating, the body's blood circulation is concentrated in the digestive system.
If you take a bath at this time, the digestive system cannot work well, and you may experience bloating, vomiting and other symptoms.
If it is a small baby, it will also induce and aggravate vomiting.
l When the skin is severely damaged.
Bathing is not recommended when your child has a wound in the skin and is damaged, so as not to contaminate the wound after immersion in water and cause infection or affect healing.
When it comes to skin damage, parents may think, can a baby with eczema take a bath?
OK.
Bathing can wash away the sweat stains and dry skin on the surface of the skin, which is more conducive to eczema rehabilitation.
In addition, McCard nagged that applying enough moisturizer to the baby after bathing can accelerate the recovery of eczema.
Before there were no children, I thought that bathing my baby was a small thing, and after becoming a parent, I found out:
Not only are there many thieves, but you can also roll up after taking a bath...
