Spring has passed, and the hot summer is coming soon. In summer, air conditioning is inevitable. So what should newborn babies pay attention to in air-conditioned rooms?

Symptoms of air conditioning disease in babies

Common index: ★★★★

Fatigue, tension, irritability, difficulty concentrating, memory loss; headache, dizziness, cold, fever; sore throat, gastrointestinal discomfort; dry skin, dry mucous membranes, respiratory allergies; varying degrees of numbness in the hands and feet.

High incidence reasons:

Air conditioning is indispensable in the hot summer. Babies have thin and tender skin, less subcutaneous fat, abundant capillaries, and their body temperature regulation center is not yet fully developed. If the air conditioner is used improperly, the baby will be attacked by cold air, capillaries will contract, sweat pores will close, and the body heat cannot be dissipated, which can easily cause the body temperature regulation center and blood circulation center to lose balance, causing colds, fever, coughs and other symptoms, commonly known as "air conditioning disease."

Tips:

1. Limit the temperature and time of air conditioning use.

The indoor temperature should generally be controlled at around 27 degrees Celsius, preferably 3 to 5 degrees lower than the outdoor temperature. Even if the weather is very hot, do not turn on the air conditioner all day, and do not let it blow directly at the baby. When the baby is out, it is best to turn off the air conditioner and open the windows to ventilate the room. Even if the air conditioner is on, it is best to open a small gap in the window to ventilate and ensure fresh indoor air.

2. When the baby enters and leaves the air-conditioned room, you should add or remove clothes at any time. Turn on the air conditioner half an hour before the baby comes home, set the temperature to a lower level, and quickly cool down the room; when the baby enters the room, you can raise the temperature to 27℃~28℃, so that the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor will not be too large, and the baby will not catch a cold.

3. Don't let your baby stay in an air-conditioned room all day. It is best to take your baby outdoors in the early morning and evening when the temperature outside is lower. This will allow your baby to breathe fresh air, sunbathe, and enhance the body's adaptability.

4. In an air-conditioned room, parents should let their babies drink more boiled water.

5. Measure your baby's temperature at least once a day. When your baby goes to bed at night, cover him with a thin blanket or towel, especially the belly.

Preventing air-conditioning disease

1. Check the filter membrane of the air conditioner regularly and replace it in time; the cooling plate in the air conditioner should be cleaned regularly.

2. Open windows regularly to ventilate the room, and use fumigation spray to disinfect when necessary.

3. The temperature difference between indoor and outdoor should not be too large, preferably 3℃ to 5℃ lower than outdoor.

4. Let your baby drink more boiled water.

5. Cool down your baby before he or she enters the room.

6. When entering or leaving an air-conditioned room, you should always add or remove clothes for your baby.

7. When sleeping at night, cover your baby with a thin blanket or towel, especially covering the lower belly tightly.

How to use air conditioning for babies healthily

1. Do not set the air conditioner too low, 26℃ is the best temperature. The temperature difference between indoor and outdoor should not be too large, 3-5℃ lower than outdoor is the best. In addition, the temperature is low at night, so the temperature should be adjusted in time.

2. Do not blow the cold air outlet of the air conditioner directly at the baby.

3. Since the air in the air-conditioned room is relatively dry, you should replenish your baby with water in time and strengthen the care of dry skin.

4. Measure your baby's temperature at least once a day.

5. Keep the air in the room fresh. Ventilate the room regularly, at least once in the morning and evening, for 10-20 minutes each time. Adults should avoid smoking indoors. If the baby has allergies or respiratory problems, an air purifier can be installed indoors to improve the air quality.

6. Make full use of the dehumidification function of the air conditioner. It will not drop the room temperature too low and will make people feel very comfortable.

7. When entering or leaving an air-conditioned room, you should add or remove clothes for your baby at any time.

8. Don't let your baby stay in an air-conditioned room all day. It is best to take your child outdoors in the early morning and evening when the temperature outside is lower. This will allow your baby to breathe fresh air, sunbathe, and enhance the body's adaptability.

9. When sleeping at night, cover your baby with a thin quilt or towel, especially covering the lower belly tightly.

10. Buy a onesie because it will not easily expose the baby's belly button, thus reducing the chance of the baby catching a cold. The hem of the clothes has buttons, which can block the sun and is convenient for changing diapers and holding the baby while peeing.
