Studies have found that light can also reduce the activity of the amygdala in the brain, which helps to relax emotions.
It's spring, and temperatures are getting hotter in many areas. Compared with the hot summer and the cold winter, spring seems to be the most suitable season for basking in the sun, so it has also become the "peak period" for parents.
Sugar mom found that after the Qingming Festival every year, there are more people in the community to dry their babies, and some parents will push strollers to give the baby who has just been in the moon to bask in the sun.
Older generations often say that children can only grow up when they see the sun, and young parents feel that basking in the sun will give their children calcium supplements. These claims are not entirely true. Because the sun is basking in the wrong way, it may also hurt the baby.
The baby cries as soon as she is basking in the sun, and grandma doesn't know where the mistake is
A few days ago, I saw the neighbor Aunt He pushing his little grandson around the neighborhood, and after seeing me, she asked me to also take the child out. Take advantage of the good weather and bask outside in the sun.
Before we could talk a little, the baby in the stroller began to cry. Aunt He helplessly told me that it is really difficult to bring children now. When I was in the house, I cried and cried to come out, but when I went outside, I cried incessantly.
I looked at the baby's diapers, not the problem of defecation, and after asking Aunt He, I learned that the baby had just finished drinking milk. Why do you keep crying? When sugar mom squatted down to coax the baby, she found a problem.
It turned out that the baby lying in the stroller could not open his eyes by the sun, and after being reminded by me, Aunt He reacted.
After covering your baby's eyes, your baby quickly stopped crying. Fortunately, it should be found in time, otherwise the baby's eyes are likely to be hurt.
Taking a baby in the sun in the spring has these benefits
There are many benefits to taking children to the sun to learn, especially in the spring, the temperature is suitable, the ultraviolet rays are not particularly strong, and the appropriate sun exposure is beneficial to the child's body.
First of all, it is conducive to the resolution of jaundice in newborns. Some newborns are born with jaundice, and sun exposure is one way to make the jaundice subside. However, because you want to dry the skin on your body, you need to take off your clothes, and you will usually be indoors.
Secondly, it is conducive to the absorption of calcium. Here Sugar Mom wants to say a misunderstanding that parents often walk into. That is, basking in the sun cannot directly supplement calcium, but can promote the absorption of calcium by the baby's body.
In daily life, babies take less vitamin D from food, but by basking in the sun, they can promote the synthesis of vitamin D in their babies.
The main role of vitamin D is to promote the metabolism of calcium and phosphorus, and to help the baby's body absorb more calcium.
That is to say, only calcium is supplemented, but the baby's body lacks vitamin D, and the calcium absorbed by the baby is also very small.
Finally, it can strengthen your baby's resistance
Adults who often sit in the office and work will know that without exposure to sunlight for a long time, the whole person feels unconscious, and the resistance will slowly decline.
After a winter, the child is exposed to less sunlight and has some weak resistance. Let the child bask properly in the spring, not only can breathe fresh air. It is also possible to increase resistance while exposed to sunlight.
Saying so many benefits of sunbathing, but sometimes because of some small mistakes by parents, the baby is injured, so pay attention to the small details when basking in the sun.
Take the baby to bask in the sun, to avoid the baby's "invisible sunburn" In the process of basking the baby, invisible sunburn often appears. After an invisible sunburn, your baby is not showing up at the time, but the next day you may experience hot skin, inflammation, or fever and crying.
In order to avoid the baby's "invisible sunburn", parents should pay attention to the following things when taking their children to bask in the sun.
1) Choose the right weather and time period
Parents know that sunbathing should choose windy and sunny weather, but they do not know enough about the time period of sunbathing. 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., and 4:00 p.m. to 5 p.m., are more suitable for taking your baby to bask in the sun.
The ultraviolet rays of the sun in these two periods are relatively weak, which can play a role in promoting the baby's metabolism, and it is not easy to bring harm to the baby.
2) Pay attention to the length of time you bask in the sun
It should be noted that the longer the sun is basking, the better. The time of sun exposure of newborns is controlled at about 5 minutes.
Children between 3 months and 2 years old are exposed to the sun for about 15 to 20 minutes. Children aged 2 to 5 should be controlled within 30 minutes, and children aged 3 to 5 years old should not be exposed to the sun for more than 1 hour.
In addition, it should be noted that when the child has adverse reactions such as redness, sweating, and accelerated breathing rate, it is necessary to stop basking in the sun immediately. Go to a cool place or go home to rest for a while and take care to rehydrate.
3) Be prepared before basking in the sun
You can't have an empty stomach before basking in the sun, but you can't eat too much, and it is better to eat half an hour after milk and meals.
In addition, in order to achieve better results, try not to take a bath before basking in the sun. Because after bathing, the "7-dehydrocholesterol" in the baby's skin will be temporarily washed away, reducing the effect of the sun.
Before the baby who can walk basks in the sun, prepare a sunhat to prevent direct sunlight from hitting the face and eyes, and parents who push the stroller to sunbathe should pay more attention to this detail.
The baby lies in the stroller and looks directly at the sun, and parents can use the roof of the stroller to cover the baby's face and avoid direct sunlight from causing irreparable damage to the eyes.
Although it is good to bask in the sun for the baby, not all babies are suitable for going out to bask in the sun, and parents do not have to force it according to the situation.
Some babies are not suitable for sunbathing in the spring, and parents should not force it
Parents often see a baby basking in the sun, and will also take their own baby to go, but it should be noted that some babies are not suitable for sunbathing in the spring.
If parents are allergic, they should consider it carefully. Small babies are very sensitive in themselves, and if the parents are allergic, they may be inherited to the baby.
Spring is the peak of pollen allergy, if the baby is basking in the sun, accidentally exposed to various kinds of dander or pollen leading to allergies, skin rashes, cough and other situations are dangerous.
It should also be noted that babies with rickets are not suitable for direct sun exposure, and babies with severe malnutrition are not suitable for direct sun exposure.
According to the doctor's advice, after supplementing vitamin D for a period of time, go to the sun to avoid adverse reactions in the process of sunbathing.
