Many children do not like to bathe in winter, mainly because the weather is cold, but parents must not be able to watch it, even if it is cold, they have to drag their children to take a bath. In fact, there are many precautions for children to bathe in winter, and if you bathe your child at an inappropriate time, it is likely to cause some problems to become more and more serious and bring harm to children.
01 The child vomited more than just bathed the baby, resulting in more and more serious vomiting
Ms. Zhang's son, 8 years old this year, suddenly vomited two days ago, and at that time, he also vomited on his body, when the child kept saying that his body was sticky and uncomfortable, shouting for a bath. Ms. Zhang also felt that the child might feel better after taking a bath, plus she did not take a bath for four or five days, so she let the child take a bath.
But what I didn't expect was that after the child took a hot bath for twenty minutes, he lay on the bed for a long time, and then began to vomit, and this time the vomit was more serious than before, and even at the end of the vomit, the child began to vomit acid, which also meant that the child's stomach was spit clean.
Seeing that the situation was so serious, Ms. Zhang quickly took the child to the hospital. After the doctor's examination, the diagnosis is gastrointestinal discomfort, coupled with the child's body is more sensitive, and then took a hot bath, under the difference between hot and cold, resulting in the body's basal metabolic disorders, affecting gastrointestinal function, so it also makes the symptoms of vomiting more serious.
By the doctor said this, Ms. Zhang began to regret it, she knew that she did not let the child take a bath at this juncture, if there was no bath, just a simple wipe for the child, now it will not become like this. Ms. Zhang also understood that the original child's bath can not be washed casually, and there are many precautions for bathing in winter.
02 Do not give your child these three baths in winter, the symptoms are getting more and more serious, it is better to let the child get dirty than wash
First of all, as mentioned in our above case, when the child is vomiting, it is best not to bathe the child, because when the child bathes, it will affect the metabolic function of the child's skin, and it will also affect the gastric motility, which will cause the child's vomiting to become more serious.
When the child has more serious vomiting symptoms, it is best to wait until the child's condition improves before washing, otherwise it is better to let the child get dirty, or to do some wipes for the child, not to take a long hot bath.
Secondly, if the child has a more serious skin disease in the winter, such as skin trauma, or skin ulceration, then it is best not to take a bath, because this hot bath will irritate the skin, and it is easy to cause skin inflammation, which will also make the bacteria multiply more and more serious, resulting in slower recovery of the wound, and may worsen.
Finally, the child can not take a bath within an hour after eating, because this time the bath will make most of the blood concentrated on the skin, and the gastric motility will be weakened, which will not only affect the blood flow, but also affect the child's gastrointestinal digestive function. In addition, do not bathe when the child is hungry, otherwise it is easy to have hypoxia and syncope, resulting in the child slipping and falling.
03 What problems should I pay attention to when bathing my child in winter?
Mothers must first turn on the heating or bath bully for the child, otherwise after taking off the clothes and then turn on these devices, the temperature in the bathroom has not yet risen, the child may be cold, and the child will change clothes after the bath will also get cold. However, if the heating or bath is turned on in advance, then the child is not easy to catch a cold. However, it should be noted that the temperature should not be turned on too high, otherwise it is easy to cause the child to take a bath after taking a bath, and walk out of the bathroom may be invaded by the cold air outside.
Mothers also have to adjust the water temperature for their children, and some adults do not adjust the temperature after bathing, resulting in children may be burned when it rains. This is because adults like to use warmer water for bathing, but the child's skin is more tender, and the temperature suitable for adults may not be suitable for children, and children may be burned. Therefore, be sure to adjust the water temperature for the child in advance, and the water temperature suitable for the child is about 38 ° to 40 degrees.
Of course, according to the child's physique, it can also be appropriately increased or decreased. However, it is not recommended to use too hot water, because if the water temperature is too high, it is likely to destroy the lipid membrane of the child's skin, destroy the immunity of the child's skin, and finally cause symptoms such as dermatitis.
Finally, we should also remind the mothers that when the child enters the bathroom to take a bath, it is best to prepare the clothes for the change at the same time, otherwise it is likely that the child will catch a cold while waiting for the bathroom to go to get the clothes after the child takes a bath. For some older children, it is best to let the children prepare themselves, so that they can also exercise their self-care and independence.
Conclusion: Children's bathing seems like an inconspicuous thing, but in fact, if you don't pay attention to the details of the problem, it is likely to bring greater harm to the child. Therefore, parents still have to pay more attention to these details.
