The baby who just came out of the warm and safe mother's stomach is not used to many things outside, and needs to accept and get used to it slowly. Newborn babies can blow the air conditioner, as long as the temperature of the air conditioner is adjusted to above 26 degrees Celsius. In an air-conditioned environment, the baby will sleep better. However, the air conditioner should not be turned on for too long, and it should be ventilated frequently, otherwise the indoor air quality is not good and it is not suitable for newborn babies. The air-conditioned environment is relatively dry, which can appropriately increase the drinking water of newborns. If conditions permit, you may wish to use an air humidifier to balance the ambient humidity!
Can newborns blow air conditioners in summer?
Of course. When the temperature is very high, you need to give your baby an appropriate cooling method, otherwise it will be easy to sweat, dehydrate and even get sick from heatstroke. But it should be noted that if the indoor environment is too cold, the baby will not be able to bear it. Newborns have thin skin, little subcutaneous fat and much smaller body surface area than adults. The heat in the body dissipates quickly and produces less, so the baby's body can't cope with the temperature change well and it is easy to catch a cold. If the situation is critical, subcutaneous fat will solidify and harden. This is scleredema, which is very dangerous.
1. Keep warm in summer.
In any case, the baby's armpit temperature should be kept between 36℃ and 37℃, and the anus temperature should be between 36.5℃ and 37.5℃. Air conditioning wind can't be directed at newborns. It is recommended that newborns wear loose cotton clothes, not too much, and don't sweat when they are inactive. For premature infants with weak constitution, keeping warm is very important. If the situation is serious, please let the premature baby be hospitalized and nursed back to health in the incubator.
2. Blowing air conditioner for a long time is harmful to health.
Blow the air conditioner moderately, not continuously for a long time. Newborn babies are prone to dizziness, chest tightness, nausea and even colds due to respiratory infections in an environment with dirty air and dense bacteria. Newborns' immunity and resistance are very weak, and they are easy to catch a cold and have a fever, or their tonsils are swollen and inflamed, and they may also have diarrhea, cough and runny nose.
3. Indoor temperature and humidity should be balanced.
In order to avoid the newborn baby catching a cold, please adjust the air conditioning temperature to above 26℃; If conditions permit, adjust the humidity with a humidifier. If there is no humidifier at home, you can put a basin of water before going to bed. Always open the window for ventilation. If the newborn has mild fever, please strengthen indoor ventilation to keep the baby warm and take medicine if necessary. Don't turn off the air conditioner and electric fan immediately, so that the temperature will rise, which is harmful to the baby's recovery.
The best time for newborns to blow air conditioning.
The best time to blow the air conditioner depends on the situation. The temperature is low in the morning and evening in summer, so you can turn off the air conditioner. It is usually the hottest from noon to 3 pm, so you can turn on the air conditioner to cool down. If it is too hot to sleep at night, you should still turn on the air conditioner to adjust the temperature. Try not to turn on the air conditioner continuously for more than 10 hour. Because the temperature will drop after midnight, you can open the window to let the natural wind blow in, so just set the air conditioning operation time to midnight when you sleep. Some babies are born in summer, so it is convenient and effective to use air conditioning to relieve summer heat, but remember, you can't blow air conditioning for a long time, or you will get air conditioning disease.
Optimal air conditioning temperature for newborns.
Newborns and adults have different tolerance to temperature. The most suitable air conditioning temperature for newborns is 27℃-28℃, which is generally three to five degrees different from the outdoor temperature.
Experts suggest that when the outdoor temperature exceeds 35℃ or the indoor temperature is above 28℃ to 30℃, newborns will feel uncomfortable and should turn on the air conditioner. The air conditioning temperature should be around 27℃ to 28℃. If the newborn is still very hot and uncomfortable, lower the temperature appropriately. The newborn baby's physical development is still very immature, and it can't cope with the temperature change well and quickly, and it needs a gradual adaptation process. Turning off the air conditioner 60 minutes before the child wakes up can reduce the indoor and outdoor temperature difference.
What should the baby do if he gets air-conditioning disease?
Stay in a closed and unclean air-conditioned environment for a long time, and newborns with low self-resistance are prone to various discomforts, which is air-conditioning disease. So, how should parents deal with air-conditioning disease?
1. Control the disease as soon as possible. When the newborn has symptoms such as runny nose, stuffy nose, cough and fever. Mother should give him medicine in time and try to control his illness.
2. Make the newborn sweat. When you have a cold, a very useful method is sweating. Give children plenty of water, and light salt water is also good, which is good for newborns to sweat.
3. Precautions for air conditioning in the car. Many parents will turn down the temperature of the air conditioner and smoke in the car when driving in summer, which is very harmful to the baby's health. If the baby sleeps in the car, please turn off the air conditioner, at least don't let the cold wind blow on him. It's best to cover the child with an air conditioning blanket. When you are ready to drive a car that has been exposed to the hot sun before, you should first open the door and let the hot air out. After the temperature drops, turn on the air conditioner for refrigeration. The temperature of the air conditioner is better than that of the outdoor by seven degrees Celsius.
Precautions for neonatal air conditioning blowing
1. The air conditioning temperature is suitable: it is better to be above 26℃, and the temperature difference with the outside is not more than 5℃. After the temperature drops at night, turn off the air conditioner and open the window for ventilation to prevent the newborn from catching cold.
2. Moisturize at any time: You can use a humidifier or put a basin of water at home. After turning on the air conditioner for a period of time, it is necessary to ventilate regularly to evacuate the dense bacteria in the room and balance the indoor humidity.
3. Wear suitable clothes for the baby: The newborn baby is delicate and easy to sweat, which is suitable for wearing all-cotton, loose and washable clothes. Don't wrap your baby too tightly, just don't sweat when you are inactive. But the newborn is not as cold-resistant as adults. You can give him an extra coat. There is a jumpsuit specially designed for newborns, which can cover his small navel, keep the baby's stomach warm and avoid catching cold. Moreover, the hem of this kind of clothes has buttons, which makes it convenient for mothers to pee on their children.
4. Pay attention to ventilation: it is best to ventilate every 7 hours or so, and the longest time should not exceed 12 hours, with ventilation for 30 minutes each time.
5. Clean the air conditioner regularly: If you want to make the air at home cleaner, you must ensure the cleanliness of the filter in the air conditioner. It is recommended to wash every 15 days 1 time, and the radiator plate should also be cleaned regularly.
6. Temperature measurement: Take the temperature of the newborn once or twice a day to be alert to colds and fever.
7. Always replenish water: drink plenty of water, and the temperature should not be too high or too low. Warm water can quench your thirst and warm your baby's body. If the water is too cold, newborns are prone to catch cold and get sick. If you are over 12 months old, you may wish to cook some rock sugar scented tea for your child, such as honeysuckle tea and chrysanthemum tea, which have the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying.
8. Prepare a small blanket: the temperature in air-conditioned rooms is generally low, and the immunity of newborns is low. Be sure to cover the air conditioning blanket when you sleep. The baby's navel is related to his spleen and stomach. Cover it tightly and don't let him catch cold and get sick.
