My baby was born in winter, and many doubts assaulted me when it came to dressing him. How much clothes will you need? How do you know if you are cold? What should the basket have?
While it is true that the baby must be protected from the cold, we should not overdo it when it comes to shelter. Babies from four kilos of weight are able to regulate their body temperature when environmental conditions are conducive. Remember that having low body fat are more sensitive to cold, but overcoating is counterproductive.
How much should we shelter the baby? You have to evaluate the climatic conditions, but the normal thing is a diver, mittens and very important the hat. If the baby is calm, calm means that he is comfortable, on the contrary if he cries and is restless he could be cold. Check the temperature of the neck and neck, if you feel sweaty is wearing too much coat.
These are some of the things that the baby should not miss in the baby basket that opens in winter:
A diver. There are them with mittens and bag-shaped, and even of removable parts depending on the temperature. Sleeping bag Cap Scarf. Cotton blanket Toquilla Long sleeve bodies Long-sleeved pajamas. Tshirts. Booties Socks. Some cotton set to be at home when the heating is very high. A hood for the plastic chair for rain and wind.
