Wearing proper underwear for the baby is not only beneficial to the protection of private parts, but also can avoid being contaminated by bacteria. Many mothers want to know when it is appropriate to wear underwear for their babies. Generally speaking, if babies are in kindergarten, about 2-3 years old, mothers should pay attention to wearing underwear for them, even when babies don't need to wear diapers. Because the baby's body's ability to resist bacteria and viruses is still weak, wearing small clothes can help reduce the chance of infection, keep some impurities in the environment out and protect the baby's privacy.
Some people think that boys should not wear underwear too early. In fact, some cotton underwear is more comfortable to wear and has little effect on the baby's genitals. Mommy should dress the baby in underwear from an early age and let them form a habit. This can prevent the baby from touching the genitals with his own hands to produce bacteria, and the outer pants are hard, so wearing underwear can prevent friction and play a protective role.
Although the order of each baby's physical and mental development is mostly the same, everyone has his own development speed, so we can't treat it rigidly. We should decide when to wear underwear according to the baby's specific situation.
Second, what are the benefits of children wearing underwear?
1, gender awareness
1.5-year-old babies have no gender awareness and are not shy without clothes. However, after 1 year and a half, the baby entered a critical period of gender awareness. Wearing underwear can promote the establishment of baby's gender awareness, so that baby can realize the difference between men and women from an early age, and private parts need special protection.
2. Social adaptability
The psychological activities and behaviors of 0 ~ 3-year-old infants are not only influenced by their parents, but also by social moral norms and codes of conduct. Wearing underwear will help the baby adapt to kindergarten life more quickly in the future, and also help to cultivate the baby's independence and mental development.
3. Prevent the abdomen from catching cold
Babies under 3 years old, the development of body temperature center is not perfect, especially the abdomen, which is highly sensitive to temperature. If you catch a cold, it will cause abdominal pain or a cold. Wearing underwear for the baby can prevent the baby's abdomen from catching cold often, especially when the weather is cold.
4. Health of private parts
Babies like to sit on the ground and play. Wearing underwear can keep some impurities out, protect the baby's private parts and prevent the baby from playing with genitals and producing bacteria. In addition, wearing underwear can reduce the friction between pants and private parts and protect the baby's skin.
5. Baby toilet training
Babies who have been naked may not realize that they have to go to the toilet, and it is easy to urinate everywhere. Wearing underwear for the baby is beneficial to the baby's toilet training, and it is very important for the baby's growth and development to develop a regular toilet from an early age.
Third, how to buy children's underwear
1, try to choose pure cotton. In fact, it is not only the baby's underwear, but also the adult's underwear. It is best to choose pure cotton. Because pure cotton is soft, breathable and absorbs sweat, it is more comfortable to wear. In summer, don't be afraid of boredom.
2, the size should be moderate. Some people have the habit of buying a bigger size when buying clothes. They think that clothes of a bigger size will last. However, the baby's underwear should be the right size. The baby wears too little and walks too big, so the baby doesn't like to wear underwear.
Step 3 choose a light color. The choice of underwear color is particularly important for female babies, because wearing light underwear for female babies can make it easy for mommy to observe whether the baby has precocious puberty or gynecological diseases. If there are yellow scabs or dry small pieces on the baby's underwear, it means that the baby is infected or has the possibility of premature delivery. Wearing underwear can help mothers find the baby's health problems in time by observing the secretions on underwear.
