Every pediatrician will tell you that babies have a special thermal insulation system. What does it mean? Children freeze and warm themselves differently than an adult. This feature will be the main in the organization of promenades on frosty days.
Instructions
Step 1
You can go out with a baby for a walk on the street the next day after your discharge. But before discharge, it will still be useful to consult a qualified specialist.
Step 2
The time spent on the street should be increased gradually. In the very first weeks of visiting the street, you should be outdoors from 5 to 10 minutes, then from 15 to 20 minutes, gradually reaching an hour and a half.
Step 3
If the conditions outside the window are really unfavorable, that is, the temperature is below -10 - 15 degrees, a very strong cold wind and high humidity, then it is better to postpone a walk with a child. Is there a light frost outside? Limit yourself to just half an hour of walking, but several times. Better to walk on such days more often, but little by little.
Step 4
Have you noticed that babies on the street sleep wonderfully? All because of the stress that a newborn baby experiences, getting to know everything for the first time: strollers, the sky, the street, cars, strangers. Don't overuse it
Step 5
A child's clothing should be one layer more than an adult's. This is the basic rule of equipment on a winter day.
Step 6
About half an hour before you go out with your child, thoroughly lubricate his faces with a specialized cream that should not contain water.
Step 7
For a proper and calm walk, try to find some quiet place. These can be parks located away from major highways. It is great if there is a forest or a lake not far from the house, but if this is not possible, it is better to take a walk in the yard, and not along the road.
Step 8
In order to check if the crumb is frozen, be guided by the temperature of its spout. It should be checked immediately after a walk: cold - cover the crumbs warmer, warm - you picked up good clothes.
Step 9
If it is severe frost or snowstorm outside, replace your walk outside with a balcony. Open the window for airing, put the stroller with the baby so that it doesn't blow on the legs, and that's it - the baby is walking.
Step 10
While dad looks after the baby on the balcony, literally go outside for 10-15 minutes, get some air, walk. In caring for the baby, the mother needs to be distracted and spend some time alone with herself.
