How to keep the newborn baby warm?

If the baby's face is as red as a small tomato and feels hot, it means that the baby is hot. If the baby's cheeks are pale or a little blue, it means that the baby is cold and needs to raise the ambient temperature or add clothes to the baby. Babies use their hands and feet to regulate the temperature in their bodies. When it's hot, my hands and feet are hot and sweaty. When it is cold, our hands and feet are cold, so we should not touch or observe the baby's hands and feet. If our hands and feet are bluish white or cold, we should add clothes. ?

The baby's temperature should be measured every half hour. If it still exceeds 37.5℃, you can give your baby a warm bath and physically cool down. After half an hour, continue to measure the temperature. If the temperature drops, continue to observe. If your temperature doesn't drop, you need to go to the hospital. The temperature of these parts can best reflect whether the clothes worn by children are appropriate or whether the body is abnormal. Under normal circumstances, if you touch your chest, back and stomach, it is just right, and your forehead is cooler than your hands.

Newborn babies should pay attention to the warmth of their backs, stomachs and feet when dressing. Parents of the baby should pay attention to the warmth and coldness of these three parts, and can often touch the baby's back. If there is sweat on the back, it means that the baby is wearing hot clothes, and they can reduce the clothes for the baby. If the back is cold, there will be less clothes and you need to wear more. Many parents judge whether their children are warm or cold, and touch their children's chest and back with their hands to see if they are sweating. Sweating means that the baby is wearing too much. In fact, this method is not accurate, and the baby's temperature can be seen intuitively with a thermometer.

When the weather is cold, you must wear no more than three clothes with cotton as the base, because wearing too much will make the newborn uncomfortable. You can touch your back to see if it is warm. If the weather is warm, it is not cold. If it is sweating and touching people, it is too hot. Newborns' body temperature self-regulation ability is very poor, and it is easy to change with the change of surrounding environment. The warmth of the room is necessary, and the humidity is also very important, which can not only ensure the normal warmth of the baby's nose and mouth, but also prevent the spread of some germs.
