What should the baby do if he is afraid of heat in summer?

At present, summer has entered the dog days, and the weather will get hotter and hotter. In summer, not only adults but also babies are afraid of heat. So what should the baby do if he is afraid of heat in summer?

adequate sleep

Let the child sleep in the coolest place in the room, but be careful not to let the child blow or blow the electric fan directly. In an air-conditioned room, don't adjust the temperature too low to avoid catching a cold. When it is not too hot, cover it with a pillow towel. If it's too hot, wear thin pants to sleep. Also hang small mosquito nets to prevent mosquito invasion; Change your child's sleeping position frequently to prevent a certain part of your baby's body from getting stuck on the mattress for a long time without ventilation and getting prickly heat.

swim

Taking a bath in summer can help children regulate their body temperature, and it can also prevent the openings of sweat glands on the skin from being blocked by epithelial cells, which is beneficial to heat dissipation. It can also reduce and relieve various infant dermatoses, such as neonatal dermatitis, neonatal eczema, diaper dermatitis, red buttocks and so on. And can increase children's appetite and promote growth and development. So it is necessary to take a bath 1~2 times a day. The water temperature for bathing should be around 37℃.

Suitable temperature and humidity

Keep the room ventilated and don't close the doors and windows. In air-conditioned families, the baby's room temperature can be controlled at 22℃, and if it is premature, the room temperature should be raised to 24~26℃. The optimum indoor humidity should be 55%~70%.

Pay attention to the change of temperature.

The newborn's brain is still in the development stage, the development of thermoregulation center is not perfect, the perspiration function is poor, and the skin regulation function is insufficient. The baby's body temperature often rises with the increase of outside temperature, sometimes as high as 40℃. At this time, you should always feed your child and increase water intake. When the body temperature is too high, you can feed some boiled water appropriately and lower your body temperature by urinating.
