Late autumn has arrived, and the temperature in Dalian has dropped a lot, and Xiaodang feels surrounded by a stream of air conditioning. I also changed into thick pajamas at night and wrapped them in thick quilts...

The baby is born to move and is not honest in sleeping, especially kicking the quilt at night, which makes us very troubled. When I touched it at night, the child's hands and feet were outside, which was cold and worried.

Why did the baby kick the quilt? Did I cover it wrong? How do babies wear it when they sleep? If you wear a sleeping bag, do you still need to cover it with a quilt?

Let’s sort it out one by one!

Why does the baby kick the quilt?

Don't kick the quilt when sleeping during the day, but specifically pick the quilt when kicking at night

Excessive exercise before going to bed, eat high-protein substances, eat too much, and have too much fun sleeping will make the baby kick the quilt.

Don’t exercise too much before going to bed, wipe your baby’s sweat in time to prevent colds. Choose a pure cotton coat with good breathability and water absorption to fall asleep.

Not sleeping soundly, and keeps kicking the quilt

may be related to the sleeping environment, the high temperature of the surrounding environment, the uncomfortable quilt or bed, the lack of changing diapers before going to bed, the feeling of being bitten by mosquitoes, and gastrointestinal discomfort. Pay attention to distinguishing age groups.

htmlBaby within 16 months constantly twisting their bodies, humming, frequently turning over, kicking the quilt, which is mostly related to intestinal colic.

html for more than 16 months, or even children over 1-2 years old still have restless sleep and kicking the quilt at night, accompanied by slow growth, excessive exhaust, difficulty in defecation, vomiting, etc. It is necessary to consider related to food allergy .

sweat a lot at night, sweating on hands and feet kicking the quilt

How to cover the baby with a quilt when sleeping in autumn?

You can't cover your baby with just one quilt

First point: Prepare your own quilt for your baby

American Pediatrics Association (AAP) recommends that babies and parents different beds in the same room , you can place the child's bed closer to their parents, you can see and touch each other.

Even if you sleep with your baby, don’t share the quilt with your baby! Not only because adult quilts are too heavy for babies, but more importantly, mothers and babies share the same bed, which is prone to high heat.

Therefore, parents should give their baby a separate small quilt. The quilt should not be too big and should be suitable for the baby's small bed (if conditions allow it, it is best to let the baby sleep in the small bed independently).

Second point: Don’t cover your baby with too thick quilt

Traditional medicine believes that babies have pure yang constitution and are not afraid of cold than adults, and do not need to cover them more than adults. If the baby's quilt is too thick and covered too tightly, it may cause the baby's body temperature to be too high, and even cause metabolic disorders and induce life danger.

This is not an exaggeration, because the tragedy caused by heat is not caused by two, so parents must pay attention to the thickness of the quilt, and the quilt cannot cover the baby's neck.

When the baby is sleeping, once he finds that the baby blushed and sweats, it means that the baby feels very hot and needs to reduce the cover in time.

There was once an article "A quilt took away a 4-month-old baby boy" news attracted the attention of parents. The reason is that parents are afraid that their children will catch a cold, so they cover them with a thick quilt.

① Thick quilts are not suitable for children, because children like to put their hands outside and their shoulders are exposed. As soon as the baby's little feet come on, they will lose their thick warmth immediately. has a large temperature difference, which is also the cause of the baby's cold .

② Covering too thickly will compress the child’s chest and will also affect normal breathing and heart function. The weight of the quilt in autumn should be 1-1.5 kg.

If the baby is sick and has a fever, don’t believe that it will be cured if he has a fever. In fact, you cannot cover sweating during the fever, because the baby’s temperature regulation center is not fully developed. If you cover sweating, it is easy to cause disorder in the temperature regulation center.

Third point: The bed sheet and quilt cover are preferably light-colored pure cotton products

Pure cotton products absorb sweat, have good breathability, and have little irritation to the baby's skin.

In addition, it is best to prepare a few more beds for quilts, which can be adjusted according to the changes in the season.

Spring and Autumn You can cover your baby with a thin quilt, and you can cover one more bed in winter.

For the bedding used by babies, it is best to choose light colors on the surface fabric, cotton tires should use clean new cotton products.

Cover the baby with a quilt, small details to know

① 10-18℃ room temperature, cover the child's hands and feet, do not stretch out the quilt, only expose the head.

② Room temperature is 18-25℃, cover the quilt, allow the baby to put his hands outside the quilt.

③ Room temperature is 25-30℃, so that the baby can expose his hands and feet outside the quilt, but cover it with abdomen.

The baby's quilt should be taken regularly in the sun to dry, which can not only kill sterilization, but also make the baby sleep more comfortable!

What should the baby wear when sleeping in autumn?

light cotton underwear/pajamas

①It is best not to let your baby sleep in knitted underwear or thick pajamas, and the clothes should be loose.

②Thin jumpsuit . If the baby is particularly naughty when sleeping, you can wear a thin jumpsuit. Compared with ordinary pajamas,

For babies, it is recommended to buy onesie (monk suit) for easy changing of diapers .

Warm reminder:

It is not recommended to wear thick warm clothes when sleeping.

Thickened thermal underwear some fillings between the inner layer and the surface layer, although it plays a warm-keeping role, but has poor breathability.

The baby's skin is tender, and the clothes are not breathable enough when sleeping, which makes it easy to have rashes.

wear sleeping bag

① Sleeping bag must be loose, not too long or too slippery, and reserve about 10cm according to the baby's own height.

②Sew threads in the sleeping bag, the exposed thread tips may bypass the baby's fingers and toes. After checking that there is no thread tip, then use

③If there is a zipper, will it scratch the baby's skin? Whether the buttons and decorations on the sleeping bag are firm and will harm the baby.

④ Note: Do not let the baby's head cover in the sleeping bag.

Parents can buy a sleeping bag with removable sleeves, which can be flexibly modified, not only adapt to children's various sleeping positions, but also don't have to worry about children kicking the quilt.

But it should be noted that parents should choose soft materials, preferably pure cotton sleeping bags to prevent irritating the baby's delicate skin.

Do you want to wear socks?

Whether a baby should wear socks to sleep depends mainly on one thing: will the baby's feet be too cold when he sleeps.

Babies with cold feet can wear loose socks to keep warm when sleeping.

If other warming measures are taken, you don’t have to put socks on your baby to sleep. After all, it is not very comfortable to sleep in socks.

quilt cover is enough?

The baby is still young and will not tell the adult whether he is cold or hot. So what can I tell whether the baby’s cover is warm enough? Please remember the following method:

Touch the back of the neck and back.

The back of the baby's neck can often reflect the average temperature of the whole body.

If the baby's back neck is warm, dry and sweat-free, then the baby's clothing thickness and lid thickness are OK.

Good sleep quality is beneficial to the development of the child's brain and body.

Therefore, we must pay attention to the baby's sleep and create a good sleep environment for the baby. The choice of

quilt must also be suitable for the needs and growth of the baby, and be flexible and flexible.
