Before the baby is born, many parents will prepare some small blankets or blankets, etc., in order to wrap the baby after birth. Because the baby's body temperature is relatively low and they are very afraid of the cold, some babies are also wrapped while sleeping, and they cannot sleep well when they open it. So what should we do if the baby gets used to wrapping themselves in swaddling clothes when sleeping?
What should I do if my baby gets used to sleeping in swaddling clothes
The baby's physical development is not yet mature, such as the nervous system or myelin sheath not yet formed. Once there are sounds or other disturbances from the outside, babies are prone to experiencing full body reactions, appearing as if they are startled, which can affect their sleep. If the baby is wrapped in swaddling clothes, their limbs will be well secured, which can prevent startles and allow the baby to sleep more soundly. As the baby grows up, it is not advisable to wrap them in swaddling clothes all day long. To avoid hindering the growth and development of the baby, use it during their nap and rest time. When the baby is awake, remember to open the swaddling clothes to help the baby better adapt to this process.
What should I pay attention to when wrapping a baby's sleeping bag in swaddling clothes
When wrapping babies in swaddling clothes, be careful not to wrap them too tightly. If the wrapping is too tight, it can make the baby sweat easily, irritate the skin, and even cause skin infections. If the room temperature is too high, it is best not to put the baby in swaddling clothes to avoid the temperature being too high and causing the baby to become overheated. Also, be careful not to let the baby in swaddling clothes sleep on their stomach. As the baby grows up, their resistance will also increase, and the package should be slowly replaced.
When babies are young, they can be wrapped, which has many benefits. It is important to pay attention to using the correct wrapping method. As babies grow up day by day, this habit should be gradually changed, otherwise it will be detrimental to the baby's health. Parents can choose appropriate methods to gradually correct it, allowing the baby to have a better adaptation process.
