Brrr, Baby, Brrr - Getting Baby Ready For Winter
The crunch of autumn leaves under our feet will soon give-way to the crunch of ice and snow as the cold winter months are fast approaching. As you pull out your winter jackets and pour dry gas into your tank, you must also think about getting baby ready for winter. Here are some tips:
Around the House:
Baby Socks
· Remember that heat rises and that your baby spends most of his/her time on the floor. Make sure that baby is always warmly dressed and has their feet covered while in the house.
· Cover heaters so that baby cannot come into palpate with their surfaces. Make sure that infants and young children are always supervised when in the room with a natural heat source such as a fireplace or wood or coal burning stove.
· Make sure you have a towel ready to keep your baby warm and dry after the bath. Convert them into their pajamas as soon as they are dry and diapered.
· Avoid using heavy loose blankets in your baby's crib as this is hazardous. Instead, invest in a few sleep sacks - wearable blankets -that will keep your baby warm and safe all night long.
· Run a cold water humidifier in your baby's room while they sleep to articulate moisture in the air.
Going Out:
· Avoid a bulky winter jacket that is hard to fit into the straps of your car seat, child carrier or stroller. Instead invest in a lined car seat/stroller cover that allows you to operate the temperature and keep baby snug without the need for a jacket or extra blankets.
· always keep baby's head covered in a hat. Heat escapes through the head - sustain it with a hat. Keep a few on hand because they tend to disappear like a lost sock.
· A remote car starter is a very good idea. Absorbing baby from a warm house to a warm car is a lot more comfortable than waiting for the car to warm up as you drive.
· Remember to remove some layers when going from exterior to inside for any length of time. Take off baby's hat when in the mall or grocery store and pull back the heavy car seat/stroller cover so that your baby doesn't overheat.
