When babies are bathing, new parents who are not paying attention may be life-threatening!
In order to avoid such a tragedy, new parents need to pay attention to 2 elements
One thing to do: adults can't look away from the baby when they are in anything
Because the baby is too small and the sense of self-protection is not strong, when the baby is bathing, the parents should accompany the baby and assist the baby to take a bath.
Second, when bathing the baby, the temperature of the water should be appropriate
When the baby is small, the skin tissue is still in the development stage, and the water temperature is controlled at 25 to 28 ° C when bathing, and the temperature of the bath water is controlled at 37 to 40 ° C.
Bathing time is controlled within 5-10 minutes.
Excessive water temperature will lead to the baby's skin redness and swelling, serious may also appear burn phenomenon, water temperature is too low will lead to the baby's body temperature imbalance, easy to cause cold and fever problems.
8 don'ts when bathing babies:
1. Do not add water to the baby's bath
Some parents feel that the water temperature is a little cool when bathing the baby, so they add hot water to the water, and it is not recommended that parents do this.
It is recommended to prepare a thermometer to see the water temperature at any time.
2, do not take a shower immediately to sleep
Baby bathing can not fall asleep immediately, this time the quality of sleep is poor, the child will appear easy to wake up, sleep is not steady, etc., to drink milk to the baby after the bath, after drinking milk to the baby hiccup, accompany the baby to play for a while and then sleep, develop the habit of bathing, drinking milk, companionship, sleep, the baby can sleep more steadily, help the child's quiet sleep.
3, the baby just woke up do not take a bath
When many parents get up in the morning, they want to wake up the baby as soon as possible and directly give the baby a bath, which is not recommended for parents to do this.
Not only is it not awake, but it is easy to catch a cold
Because the baby sleeps in the process, the nerves and muscles are in a state of inhibition, just woke up after the baby's capillary contraction, pores are closed, at this time immediate bathing will lead to a sharp rise in skin temperature, the baby's body temperature regulation center itself has not yet developed perfectly, the ability to regulate is weak, so it will lead to the baby extremely unsuitable and crying phenomenon. At the same time, taking a bath just after waking up will take away the heat and water in the baby's body, which will lead to the baby's weakness, decreased resistance, and affect normal growth and development.
The best bath time is 2 hours before the baby goes to bed, which reduces the amount of time it takes to fall asleep
When the water temperature of the bath is controlled at about 40 ° C, the quality of sleep is the best.
Because the core temperature of the baby at night is relatively low, sweating more at night, in order to reduce the core temperature, it is necessary to rely on sweating to reduce the body temperature, so before the baby goes to bed, give the baby a warm bath, help reduce the core temperature, help the baby to reduce sweating, and can fall asleep quietly. In addition, the baby bathes when he is sleeping, and develops the regular habit of bathing, drinking milk, accompanying, and sleeping, which helps the baby to sleep quietly at night.
4. Do not bathe after the baby is injured
When the body is injured, the invasion of bacteria is the fastest, and it should be disinfected first to prevent the wound from being affected by the bath water and re-infecting.
It is recommended to wipe with water, avoiding wounds
5. Do not bathe the baby just after exercising
After exercise, the blood flow in the body is faster, the heart rate is also faster, and there will be a lot of sweat.
If you take a bath right away, it will increase the blood flow rate in the body again, which will lead to insufficient blood supply to other organs of the baby, the phenomenon of lack of oxygen in the brain, and serious heart problems.
Studies have shown that you must take a bath after exercise, but the bath time should be half an hour after exercise.
At this time, the body has naturally returned to normal body temperature, and there will be no problem of unbalanced body temperature regulation.
6. Do not bathe when the baby feels hungry
When you are hungry, the blood sugar content is relatively low. Your own heat is no longer enough, you will be dizzy when you take a bath, and in severe cases, you will have shock.
7. Do not bathe after the baby has eaten enough
After the baby has eaten enough, bathing immediately will make the body's blood vessels expand due to the stimulation of hot water, and blood flow will be affected, resulting in slower gastrointestinal peristalsis of infants, which is easy to cause indigestion.
8, do not give the baby a bath liquid for parents, but use a special shower gel for babies and children
Due to the high sensitivity of the baby's skin, some of the ingredients in the bath liquid used by parents such as: fragrance, preservatives, whitening function, etc., are not suitable for babies.
It may cause skin problems, and it is recommended that parents give babies a special bath liquid for children.
Although there are many kinds of baby shampoo shower gels on the market
When choosing a baby shampoo shower gel, first avoid the following ingredients:
When choosing shampoo and bath products, it should be preferred to contain: amino acid epiactivity ingredients
Amino acid table activators mainly include sodium lauroyl glutamate, sodium cocoyl glutamate, sodium myristic acid glutamate, potassium cocoyl glycinate, palmitoyl glycine and other raw materials, mainly used in hair and body care products, such as shampoo, shower gel, liquid soap, cleansing soap, facial cleanser and baby care products.
Its performance characteristics are safe, environmentally friendly and skin-friendly.
Safe: Amino acid surfactants are amino acids (such as glutamic acid, glycine, etc.) salts (sodium salts, potassium salts, triethanolamine salts) of coconut oil (or laurel or palm oil) that have the ability to foam and decontaminate. Weakly acidic amino acid surfactants, PH value is close to baby skin, plus amino acids are the basic substances that make up proteins, so gentle and skin-friendly, sensitive skin can also be used with peace of mind cleansing products.
Environmental protection: The molecular structure of amino acid epikinetic agent is a natural amphoteric molecular structure, and its biodegradability reaches 100%, and there is no pollution to water and the surrounding environment.
Skin-friendly: Amino acid pH value between 5.5-6.5, close to baby skin, plus amino acids are the basic substances that constitute protein, so mild skin-friendly, not only suitable for eczema, prickly heat and other symptoms of skin use, even fragile and sensitive skin of infants can also be used
The kangaroo mother's new baby shampoo shower gel contains amino acids in one and all active ingredients account for 75% mild and non-irritating.
It can be used not only for newborn babies, fragile muscle babies, and sensitive muscle babies, but also for eczema babies.
In the United States repair is also a high score of 5.0 all ingredients all the way to the green light:
The extrusion is a bubble texture and the foam is delicate

When washing the face, drag the baby's head with the palm of your left hand, and fold the two sides of the baby's auricles with your thumb and middle finger to block the opening of the external auditory canal to prevent the bath water from flowing into the baby's ear and causing infection.
