It is very cold in winter. How often is it appropriate to give children a bath?

When the weather is cold in winter, many treasure mothers start to worry, and the temperature at home is relatively low. Do you still insist on bathing your child every day? Some people are worried that the cold weather will make the baby's resistance low, and it is easy to catch cold during bathing, which will lead to illness, but they don't bathe the baby. Some people worry that the baby's skin wrinkles are not cleaned up in place and various skin diseases appear. Always bathing your baby in winter will have all kinds of entanglements. So how often should I wash it in winter?

The doctor's advice is that it is most appropriate to bathe children two or three times a week in winter. This is because in winter, when the temperature is relatively low, people's sweat glands are relatively inactive, and less sweat will be separated. In addition, the baby's skin is very delicate. If it is washed too much, it will cause skin damage and serious problems. If the baby has a lot of activities and sweats, it can be cleaned locally, such as the baby's neck, armpits, leg roots and back. These parts can be gently wiped with warm water and then dried with a dry towel.

Some treasure moms think that if there is heating or air conditioning at home, it will be warm if the indoor temperature is above 26 degrees. They can insist on bathing their baby every day, thinking that this can improve their resistance. Actually, it's not. In winter, the climate is dry, especially in heating rooms, and human metabolism will slow down. At this time, the baby's resistance to the outside world will decline. If you insist on taking a bath every day, the sebum on your baby's skin will be washed clean and easily stimulated by the outside world. So if the indoor temperature is high, it is best not to take a bath every day.

Some treasure mothers wrap their babies in bath towels and walk out of the bathroom immediately after taking a shower. Doctors don't recommend this. First of all, the baby has just taken a bath and has a lot of water on him. At this time, he walked out of the bathroom and entered the bedroom. The surrounding environment changed and there was a temperature difference. The baby was prone to catch cold. Secondly, if the water on the baby is not dried, it will easily lead to dry skin. The correct way is to dry the baby's body and then apply moisturizing lotion, then wrap the baby with a dry bath towel or dress the baby directly, and then carry it out of the bathroom.
