When a newborn appears in the family, parents get a lot of trouble and anxiety. Especially if this is the firstborn, and they have no experience in caring for a baby. It would seem that the simplest question is: how to dress a baby after swimming or for a walk? If you dress too lightly, the baby may freeze; if it is too warm, it may overheat.
Instructions
Step 1
Focus on the ambient temperature. If the baby is at home, at 23 ° C and above, it is enough to put on a cotton T-shirt and sliders. If it is around 20-23 ° C, a flannel undershirt should be put on over the shirt, and thin socks should be put on the legs over the sliders. At temperatures from 18 to 20 ° C, instead of a flannel undershirt, it is better to wear a thin knitted suit with long sleeves. Instead of cotton socks, wear woolen socks for your baby. Well, if the house is cool enough (temperature is below 18 ° C), then put on a woolen or semi-woolen suit over a thin knitted suit.
Step 2
When you are preparing to take your baby for a walk in the summer, in hot weather (over 25 ° C), it is enough to put on cotton underwear and some kind of light cap or panama to protect him from the sun's rays. If the temperature is between 22 and 24 ° C, add a thin cotton undershirt and sliders; if it is from 20 to 22 ° C, it does not hurt to wear a thin knitted suit with long sleeves and thin socks.
Step 3
In the cooler season (spring, autumn), dress your child as follows: if around 16-18 ° C, put on a light woolen or semi-woolen suit over a knitted suit. Replace the hat with a denser one, for example, a knitted hat. If the temperature is 14-16 ° C, put on the child a half-woolen hat and woolen (half-woolen) socks. At temperatures between 10 and 14 ° C, add an autumn jumpsuit to these clothes. Well, at 0-8 ° C, one more layer of clothing is needed under the overalls: warm leggings and a blouse. Also put on an extra pair of woolen socks for your child, and a light cap under a thick half-woolen hat.
Step 4
In winter, wrap your baby in a blanket and check the spout frequently. At temperatures below -20 ° C, it is not recommended to walk outside with a newborn.
