The temperature gradually rises, the weather slowly heats up, and the baby who sleeps at night is more likely to kick the quilt, and often sticks out of the quilt with small hands and feet. In this regard, do you quickly put the baby's hands and feet back into the quilt and cover the baby with a quilt, or do you let the baby's hands and feet be outside the quilt?
I believe that many parents see the baby sticking out their hands and feet out of the quilt, it is estimated that they will immediately cover the baby. Moms may think that their baby's hands and feet will feel cold outside, and worry that the baby will catch a cold. Therefore, most mothers will choose to put their baby's hands and feet back into the bed.
What the mothers don't know is that even if it doesn't take long to put the baby's hands and feet into the bed, the baby will stick out his hands and feet again. So repeatedly, it may be that the mother needs to fight with the baby's hands and feet for one night. This not only does not sleep well on its own, but also affects the quality of your baby's sleep.
Because after the baby's hands and feet are put into the bed, they may unconsciously turn over and change their posture to facilitate the extension of their hands and feet, which is bound to affect the quality of the baby's sleep.
Is it better to put your baby's hands and feet outside the bed, or is it better to put them in the bed?
First of all, let's understand, put the baby's hands and feet on the outside of the quilt, will it really make the baby cold and cold?

In the cold winter, if parents cover the baby with too many quilts and wear too much, the baby's hands and feet will also stick out of the quilt. As the weather gradually warms up, we adults will unconsciously put our hands and feet on the outside of the quilt, not to mention the baby?
In recent days, when the weather is warmer and sleeping, adults will also have a feeling that the cover quilt will feel hot, and not covering the quilt will feel cold. Therefore, putting your hands and feet outside the quilt will be more comfortable and easier to fall asleep, in fact, the same is true for small babies.
Baby's body temperature is originally higher than that of adults, metabolism is fast, if the baby is covered with too much quilt, the baby's hands and feet are put into the quilt, do not allow the baby's hands and feet to stick out, then the baby is more likely to feel hot, sweat more, so that not only affect the baby's sleep, so that the baby sleep is not steady; it may also lead to the baby frequent sweating, wet clothes quilt, and then cover more will not feel warm, but let the cold easily cold.
In this not very hot season, if you are worried that the baby's hands and feet stretch out of the quilt, will get cold, then you may wish to wear a pair of socks for the baby when sleeping, so that we can rest assured that the baby's hands and feet are extended out of the quilt, which is also conducive to the baby's better sleep.
