Winter is a season that requires more careful care for newborns. As a mother, you must not only protect your baby daily but also breastfeeding and disease prevention. Then, various factors should be considered when taking care of babies born in winter, and the care of environment, temperature, skin and clothing should be taken into account. Many details of taking care of newborns in winter require mothers to pay more attention to in order for newborns to grow up healthily in the cold winter.

The temperature of the newborn baby in the first winter should be appropriate

Baby born in the cold winter, the first consideration for care is to take care of the temperature so that the newborn can grow at a suitable temperature. Therefore, in the cold winter, the environment in which the newborn is in can be kept at around 24° is most suitable. The indoor temperature should not be too high, because this will not only cause the baby's body temperature to rise with the increase of room temperature, but also cause the baby to experience water shortage due to too high room temperature. On the contrary, if the room temperature is less than 20°, the newborn may defecate and urinate after each time after breastfeeding. Frequent changes of diapers in this low-temperature environment are prone to colds. If the conditions at home do not allow it, keep the surrounding environment warm and comfortable when changing diapers. When the baby sleeps, you can use a hot water bag to warm the baby's quilt first, so as to prevent the newborn from catching a cold.

The first winter skin care for newborn babies

Newborn babies have particularly delicate skin and have many wrinkles, especially fat babies. If the wrinkles are not properly cared for, they will easily hide ash or be soaked in sweat, which is prone to inflammation and erosion. Therefore, when taking care of newborns in winter, skin care is also very important. In winter, we generally don’t bathe your baby too frequently, but we should also use warm water to scrub the baby frequently, especially the wrinkles. After the newborn changes the diapers, we should immediately use warm water to scrub the baby’s skin. After drying, we should apply baby’s skin with baby’s moisturizer in time to keep the skin moisturized, and pay attention to applying more wrinkles.

The first winter clothing selection for newborn babies

For newborns, it is very important to have a suitable temperature. When the room temperature is maintained at about 24°, you only need to wear a small cotton shirt inside and a cotton coat outside. This will not only prevent the baby from catching a cold or not make the baby feel overheated. Don’t cover the quilt too tightly. Many parents are afraid that the newborn’s quilt will leak air and will cover it tightly, which is actually not good for the newborn’s health. The quilt for newborns should be loose and breathable to avoid the baby's breathing difficulties due to the quilt being covered too tightly. Now there are many newborn sleeping bags for parents to choose from, which is much more convenient. If you want to take your baby out, you need to wear a thicker baby. It is best to wear a small hat and thick sock cover to prevent the baby from catching a cold.

The first winter environmental care for newborn babies

When you have a baby at home, you look at the baby's small, afraid that the baby will suffer a little harm, parents may close the room where the baby lives tightly. This is actually wrong. The circulation of indoor air helps the newborn breathe smoothly. Regular ventilation of the baby's room can ensure the high quality of the baby's room. When ventilating the baby's living room, mothers and babies can temporarily leave the room that needs ventilation and wait until the indoor air is replaced before coming back. If the closed room is not replaced for a long time, the air will inevitably be very turbid. In such an environment, it is not conducive to the health of mothers and newborns. If someone at home smokes, be careful not to smoke in the room. After smoking outdoors, you should also deal with the smoke residue on your body.
