The baby is still in the second month. Does Ma Bao need to put socks on the baby?

A few days ago, my friend gave birth to a child. I went to visit her. She was fine and had a good face. She also takes care of the children and doesn't cry much at night. When the child woke up to change the diaper, I knew she didn't put socks on the child.

Asked why the child didn't wear socks, she said that the child didn't walk and wear shoes, and she was too lazy to put socks on the child with a quilt.

Why put socks on newborns? Remember these three points, and children will benefit.

In fact, what she did was not correct. because

1. Thermal insulation

Newborns' thermoregulation function is still underdeveloped, and they produce less heat, but their calorific value is relatively large, their body surface area is relatively large, and they are easy to dissipate heat. When the ambient temperature is low, the neonatal peripheral circulation is not good and the soles of the feet become cold. But mothers can put socks on their children to keep them warm and warm, and make them feel comfortable.

Protect skin

Newborns grow up day by day, and their limbs move more. When dancing or walking, the skin and toes of the feet are easily damaged. Wearing socks can reduce the friction damage between skin.

Avoid infection

The newborn's skin has more and more contact with the external environment, and harmful substances such as dust and insects can easily penetrate into the body through the fragile skin, increasing the chance of infection. Wearing socks can play a role in cleaning and preventing mosquito bites.

So it's best for newborns to wear socks. Mothers, don't ignore this detail.

What should I do to choose socks for my newborn?

1. Newborns should wear loose socks. Because the child's feet are fleshy, they are loose and will not get stuck on the child. If you hold the baby too tightly, the blood circulation will be bad. If the child is uncomfortable, he won't say anything but cry all the time.

2. The socks worn by newborns are not gorgeous, and the simplest design is the best. Overwhelming socks can bring danger to children.

3. Wear thin socks for children in summer and thick socks for children in winter, and increase or decrease them in time.

Children's socks are best made of pure cotton. Children's feet grow fast. Don't hoard too much at once.

There is a lot of cotton wool between the toes after the child wears socks. Mother remembers to wash it once a day.

Finally, the newborn's skin is fragile, so mothers should take off their socks gently. Especially your nails. Don't draw children.
