Recently, a few mothers have asked the question about what age is suitable for babies to wear underwear? Some people say 3 years old, because when the baby is 3 years old, he already knows that he has to relieve himself. Some people say 4 years old, after all, only then can the baby have the ability to lift his pants. Others say that 5 years old can allow the baby to "relax" for a few years.
Talking about 3 and 4 year olds, Lazy Mom is very understanding. I remember a colleague of Lazy Mom once said that her baby likes to take off his pants to his calves every time he goes to the toilet. In winter, he takes off his pants one by one, and he doesn’t even finish taking them off. I couldn't help but pee . is funny in the summer. Because of the heat, the pants are a little close to the body. When taking them off, they are rolled up. The pants are rolled into a circle and cannot be put back on. A colleague of thinks that wearing small underwear when the baby is still young is too troublesome and the baby cannot handle it at all. The baby should be allowed to wear it when he is older.
When should babies start wearing underwear?
In fact, babies should put on underwear immediately after taking off their diapers, which is when the baby is about 2-3 years old.
★When a baby can control its own defecation and defecation
Generally speaking, a baby can control its own urination and defecation when it is about two years old, but at this time the ability or self-awareness is not very strong. It takes about to really control it. Around 2.5-3 years old, when the baby can control his own bowels and urine and keeps the diaper clean for 32 to 3 hours, you can consider taking off the diaper and putting on underwear for the baby.
★When the baby can clearly express his/her desire to defecate
Some babies can tell their parents in their own language at a very young age that they want to defecate, but some babies do not show this clearly. This is not the time to stop using diapers. Only when the baby can clearly say that he wants to defecate , the parents can accurately assist the baby to defecate, or the baby can sit on the small toilet by himself, can you consider wearing underwear for the baby.
★ When the baby is ready to enter kindergarten
If the baby is already and plans to go to kindergarten , parents should help the baby take off diapers and put on underwear.
When the baby quits wearing diapers, he immediately puts on underwear. It can be said that seamlessly connects to , and the baby can easily accept it.
Of course, some people think that it is not necessary to put on underwear for the baby so early, especially in summer. The weather itself is relatively hot. Wearing another pair of underwear will make the baby even hotter. It is better to leave some space for the baby to let the private parts breathe fresh air. .
But there are many benefits to babies wearing underwear in time.
1. It can protect the baby's private parts and avoid infection.
Leaving a gap in the baby's private parts does have a good cooling effect, and it is more convenient for the baby to take off and put on pants, but because of this, without the layer of protection of underwear, it is easier for the baby to play daily. Causes infection of private parts .
If the baby does not wear underwear, in addition to being prone to infection, the private parts may be damaged due to the excessive friction of the pants.
Wearing underwear can actually better protect the baby's private parts and avoid infection.
2. Correct the baby’s bad habit of “exploring” private parts.
The baby is full of exploration spirit for the world. When he can't crawl or speak, he explores by eating his hands. The places he grabs with his little hands are fresh and mysterious.
Some babies, especially male babies, will discover a magical place on their body during exploration, which is the baby's genitals, and they like to touch it when their hands are free.
This is not a good practice.
① Your hands are generally dirty, and touching your private parts frequently can easily lead to infection.
② If the baby often touches this area, it will affect the local growth and development.
③ When the baby touches the baby frequently, if the parents do not handle it well, often scold the baby, or are teased by others outside, it will easily affect the baby's psychology.
Putting on underwear to protect the baby's private parts can prevent the baby from having the desire to touch them frequently.
And in this process, parents can instill gender awareness in their babies in a timely manner, so that the baby can distinguish gender as early as possible.
3. Convenient to train your baby to use the toilet.
Many mothers are more willing to wear pull-up pants for their babies in the later stage, because wearing pull-up pants is very convenient for training their babies to use the toilet. But when the baby already has a certain awareness of defecation and defecation, and can express and accept some instructions in and , it is also very convenient to change the pull-up pants into underwear to train the baby to use the toilet.
For example, when a baby feels the urge to defecate, he or she will take off his pants. After doing this several times, the baby will basically be able to master how to defecate correctly.
4. Prevent the baby’s abdomen from getting cold.
The baby's body temperature center is imperfect, and the skin on the abdomen is relatively thin and very sensitive to temperature. Parents know this, so when we dress the baby, we know to protect the baby's abdomen.
In fact, underwear can also play such a role. When we put on underwear for the baby, it also covers the baby's abdomen, keeping the baby's belly warm and preventing the baby from diarrhea and abdominal pain caused by cold.
