On the issue of children's clothing, as mentioned earlier, today we want to talk about the details: how can children wear clothes to get sick less? I believe this is a concern for every mom.
According to our summary, if you want to make children less sick, you must remember six points: three warm, three cool:
Three warm:
First warmth: back warmth
People who have studied the meridians know that in Chinese medicine, it is said that the back is yang. All the Yang Meridians of the human body will be gathered into the Chakra, and the Yu acupoint on the back is also the reflex area of the internal organs, and raising the back will help improve the baby's resistance.
Second warmth: warm stomach
We have said more than once that if the baby's stomach is always cold, or always diarrhea, you can try to put a cotton in the baby's navel and the area of a palm nearby, which will effectively protect the baby's stomach from cold.
In fact, this also has a layer of meaning, that is, the baby's spleen and stomach need warmth. Many children often accumulate food and abdominal pain, most of which are caused by cold in the abdomen, and after warming their stomachs, they can avoid this problem very well. Mothers can try to put a belly around the baby, apply a thin layer of cotton near the navel, change it from time to time, and the baby will not be easily sick.
The third warmth: foot warmth
We often say that "cold is born from the feet, warm feet to keep the peace", that is, if the feet are cold, the whole body is cold, if the feet are warm, the whole body will be warm.
Teachers who have studied Chinese medicine know that the small intestine tube is the temperature of the lower limbs, and the temperature of the small intestine comes from the heart, so if the small feet are always cold, it is not to exercise the heart, but to hurt the heart, there is no benefit to the body.
Infants and young children are not strong enough in their resistance, and small feet especially need to be warm. Usually, you can wear a sock for your baby and replace them from time to time. When the child grows up, soak his feet every day and develop habits, for the child, it will benefit for life.
Three Cool:
First cool: head cold
The ancients said: "Cold head does not get sick", even in the cold winter, we will not sleep with our heads covered when we sleep, why? Because it doesn't.
The head is the meeting of the yangs, the most abundant place of the human body's yang is the head, the head's favorite is a little cooler, and when there is too much yang, the excess heat will be dissipated through the cold, so the head is not afraid of cold.
And if we often wear a thick hat for the baby, or wrap the head with other things, it will cause the baby to be upset, dizzy and so on.
Speaking of this, many mothers will say that the child's fontanelle is not closed, and it is not necessary to go out without a hat, will it not attract cold?
We say that everything is moderate and appropriate. It is not recommended to wear a hat that is too thick for your baby, and it is not that you should not wear a hat for your baby. When the weather is too cold and there is wind, you can wear a hat for the baby to cover it, but it should be suitable. If the outside temperature is relatively low, you can wear it slightly thicker. If the outside temperature is OK, choose a thinner one, as a parent, flexible grasp can be.
The second coolness: the heart and chest are cold
The position of the child's heart and chest is recommended to be cooler. The heart is fire, if you wear too thick, too tight, cover too much, the internal heat will accumulate, will lead to the child's dry mouth, red face, and even cause the child to cry.
To be cold-minded, the child's clothes should not be too thick and not too tight. When sleeping at night, the quilt should not be covered too thickly, so as not to compress the child's chest.
Third coolness: coolness of the lower body
Cool lower body refers to the baby's lower abdomen and intimate areas. The old saying that "children do not wear fur clothes" refers to the fact that children cannot wear too hot, especially the lower body, and they cannot be too hot, otherwise it is easy to get sick if they are too warm. This point, which was discussed in detail in the previous article, has also caused a lot of controversy. Here, I still have to mention this, the child's lower body should not be too warm, will be dark yin.
After reading these three cold, many people may feel incomprehensible. Sannuan is better to say something, why let the baby cool these parts, in fact, the child's development also needs external assistance. If the baby wears too warm, the baby's muscles and bones will become soft, and it will also secretly consume its yin blood, which will be detrimental to its growth and development.
Keep these six in mind, your baby will be healthier!
