Many new mothers in the process of taking the baby, especially concerned about the baby wear enough, wear less baby will not catch a cold, so many mothers will mistakenly enter these three recognition areas:
First, touch your hands to judge whether the baby is cold or not
Judging whether the baby is cold or not, whether to add clothes, many parents' habit is to touch their hands. In fact, this method of judgment is not entirely correct! Because the blood circulation system at the end of the hands and feet of infants and young children is not perfect, sometimes although the clothes are worn a lot, the body sweats, but the hands and feet are cold!
The right thing to do is to touch the back of your child's neck, which is where the body temperature is most directly reflected. The mother puts her finger into the back collar of the child and touches the back of the child's neck and vest. If the skin is warm, it means that it is appropriate to dress; the skin is wet and sweaty, which means that it is worn too much; if the skin is cold, it is indicated that it is necessary to add clothes.
Second, the child sweats and immediately undresses
The child is tired of playing, crazy sweat, immediately take off its coat to dissipate heat, in fact, this will cause the child to be cold, because sweating is the physiological response of the body to adjust the temperature, sweating will take away part of the body's heat, so that the body's sweat evaporates, the so-called evaporation of heat absorption, will take away the body temperature, but cause cold.
The correct approach is to dry the sweat on the baby's head and back with a towel in time, so that the baby can stay quietly for 10 to 15 minutes, and in the winter, as long as it stays quietly for 10 minutes, the sweat will naturally dry out.
Third, the child sneezing is a cold
Many parents of babies see their children sneezing, and they will simply think that the baby is cold or cold, which is a seriously wrong self-belief. Because the baby's nasal cavity is not yet fully developed at this time, it will reflexively sneeze when encountering cold air, which is a kind of self-protection, in fact, there is no need to worry too much.
In fact, to add clothes to the baby, comfortable is the most important, recently circulated on the Internet temperature dressing method, presumably many mothers can not remember, the following small series to the mothers simply summarized:
For babies who can't walk on their own, the amount of activity is not large, the metabolism is low, and the resistance is poor, so the dressing standard should be more than that of adults; if it is already a toddler baby, or a school-age child who can already walk on their own, the mother does not have to worry too much, because they have a large amount of activity, a large metabolic volume, and a relatively high body temperature, so the standard of dressing can be the same as that of adults, and it can also be one less than that of adults!
