Newborn baby’s skin is very sensitive and delicate, parents need to pay more attention to the choice of clothing soft breathable non-irritating; at the same time baby until 6 months before their own thermoregulation mechanism are not perfect, parents need to pay attention to both warmth, but also to prevent too much clothing, too tight resulting in the baby’s body temperature is too high to produce danger. This article provides parents with some preparation of newborn baby clothes and how to dress, with a cap of advice. A, to prepare which newborn clothing 1, underwear and diapers underwear for newborns to keep warm essential. Just born do not wear a one-piece suit, because it is not conducive to the drying of the umbilical cord. Once the umbilical cord is off, you can use a onesie, i.e. a T-shirt that is attached to the top and bottom. It is usually fastened on the outside of the diaper and will prevent the T-shirt from shrinking up. Both underwear and onesies are available in long and short sleeves and can be chosen depending on the season. For the first month of your baby’s life, you will need four to six pieces of underwear and three or four onesies, and you should have a washer and dryer at home. Diapers are another basic necessity for newborns. 95 percent of parents use disposable diapers, while others choose cotton diapers. Whichever you choose, remember to pack more: 4 to 5 dozen diapers are recommended for newborns. 2. Basic clothing Newborn clothing should be as soft and comfortable as possible. You can prepare five pairs of baby pants with elastic bands and as many baby tops, eight pairs of baby soft socks, shoes are not needed, and two pairs of soft, one-finger gloves that will prevent your baby from scratching himself. Choose long-sleeved, thick clothes for newborns born in fall and winter (note: Shenzhen is hotter most of the time in fall and winter!) ), choose thin, short-sleeved clothes such as open-crotch pants or shorts rather than long pants when born in warm weather. In addition, parents may also want to prepare a few pieces of “formal wear” for the baby, prepared for special occasions, such as the first time to meet the grandparents, or some parties such as the full moon. 3.Pajama pants Pajamas are necessary for newborns and come in different styles. Pajamas have a zipper in the front, short or long sleeves and loose leggings. The zipper is usually pulled up at the bottom, but can be easily opened when changing diapers. Have three to four newborn pajamas on hand. If your newborn was born in the winter, also have two or three (baby-wrapping) baby blankets for swaddling or burping to keep warm. You also need three large towel quilts for keeping warm in the stroller, car seat, or any other place where the wind may blow. 4. Hats and coats The human head is the main heat sink, and this is especially true for newborns. Soft hats can keep your baby warm and comfortable, and you can prepare two hats. When you go outside, you can use a broad-brimmed jaw-tie cloth hat to protect the newborn’s sensitive skin. If the weather is nice outdoors, one or two thin sweaters or baby jackets are enough to keep your baby warm. If the weather is poor, choose a thick, warm hat that covers the ears when you go outside. Hats that are too tight can leave red indentations or irritate your baby’s head, while hats that are too big can cover his face and pose a choking hazard. Cold weather also means you need to step up your newborn’s warmth. Wind and snow clothing has insulation and waterproof insulation layer, one is usually enough. 2. Precautions: 1. Newborns’ skin is very sensitive and baby skin clothing needs to be extra soft; 2. Use colorless, fragrance-free laundry products; do not use bleach. 3, baby clothes and pants as far as possible in the front of the press button or paste button. Some babies do not like pullovers; 4. Babies are prone to rashes, try to avoid wool hats and other fabrics that may cause itching and irritation; 3. Dress your baby Choose appropriate clothing for your baby, do not dress your baby in turtlenecks, tight-fitting clothes and clothes with too many buttons and zippers down the back. Do not make choosing clothing complicated. Carry diapers and your baby’s other hygiene items with you so that you can easily change your baby’s diaper when needed. Try to keep all the essentials in the same place and close to where you are always with your baby. If you plan to take your baby out, dress your baby in fitted clothes and wear one more piece of clothing than an adult due to the weather. Don’t overdress your baby in the summer (or on hot days or hot periods in the fall and winter). In winter, give your baby a hat to protect his or her head from getting cold. When dressing your baby, let your baby lie down flat so that you can free your hands to do other things. When dressing your baby, you need to do everything for your baby, and it will take a long time for your baby to get his or her hands out from inside the cuffs by himself or herself. No matter what anyone says, don’t put shoes on your baby because your baby doesn’t need them, and, until your baby starts walking, he doesn’t need to wear shoes. Because shoes may hinder the normal development of the arch of your baby’s foot, only small size shoe covers and socks are needed at this time. Skin care 1. Newborns have thin and delicate skin that cannot withstand direct sunlight, so avoid taking them out to receive direct sunlight, especially in hotter months and between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m.; appropriate outdoor activities are possible when the light is not strong, which helps reduce jaundice and prevent calcium deficiency. During the summer months, bring a hat with a wide brim to cover your baby’s face. In the cold winter, dress your baby as much as possible to prevent cold weather (note: it is still hot in Shenzhen in the fall and winter, so be aware of the weather and the 24-hour temperature difference!) . 2, nail care. Although the newborn’s fingernails are very soft and delicate, but if the baby is used to scratching, its nails can still hurt the baby’s face, so it is important to trim the baby’s nails neatly. When using nail clippers to trim your baby’s nails, place their fingertips away from the nails! to avoid cutting into your baby’s fingers. Your baby’s nails grow much faster than you think and may need to be trimmed every 1 or 2 weeks. 3. Dental care. Although your newborn baby is not yet teething, dental care can still be appropriate at this time. Simply wet a piece of clean gauze and wipe gently along the baby’s dental bed, as often as possible after the last feeding of the day. Toothpaste is not necessary for babies younger than 6 months of age. Another way to prevent tooth decay is not to give your baby a pacifier at night.
