What should I do if my baby chokes on water while swimming? What should I pay attention to when my baby is swimming?

Before a baby is born, it lives in the mother's amniotic fluid, so baby swimming can give the baby a sense of security. Now baby swimming has become a very fashionable sport, so what should the baby pay attention to when swimming?

Let the baby spit out the water. If the baby chokes on water while swimming, if you find that the baby is still conscious, you must immediately let the baby lie on his/her stomach, press your hands on the baby's belly and lift them up to the waist until the baby spit out the water.

Press the chest cavity. First, gently press the baby's chest cavity 30 times with your hands. Then press down the forehead of the choking baby. Then lift the chin back with a little force. This can help the baby open the airway so that air can enter the lungs smoothly and avoid brain hypoxia.

Artificial respiration requires two consecutive mouth-to-mouth respirations, each time blowing for 1 second, followed by a second chest compression for the choking baby, and continuous cycling of the previous steps until the ambulance arrives.

1. Qualifications of the swimming pool. In the infant swimming pool of a regular hospital, swimming supplies are "changed for each person" and "disinfected for each person". The swimming pool and shower pool are regularly and strictly disinfected. A health check is required before swimming. The staff have received formal training, and hygiene and safety can be guaranteed.

2. Pay more attention to the baby's expression when swimming. If you find anything abnormal, take the baby out in time. If the baby looks uncomfortable or has purple lips, take emergency measures.

3. Whether your baby is swimming at home or in a swimming pool, the water temperature should be kept constant as much as possible to prevent the baby from catching a cold.

4. If the umbilical cord stump of the newborn has not fallen off, the umbilical cord should be waterproofed before the baby swims.

5. Although the water in the swimming pool is disinfected regularly, the baby still needs to be rinsed with warm water after swimming. This can make the baby feel comfortable and thoroughly clean the skin.

There is no specific or fixed time for babies to swim, but it is recommended that babies do not learn to swim before one year old, because children are relatively small and their systems are not fully developed. Children cannot master swimming skills and survival skills in water. However, baby swimming can promote children's intellectual growth and development, as well as promote blood circulation, and exercise the limbs and the whole body in the water, which is beneficial to bone development.

1. Before swimming, you can wet your baby's body with pool water to let him adapt to the water temperature first, or you can use floating toys in the water to attract his attention.

2. If the baby is still crying after you have tried the above methods to comfort him, you should pick him up immediately, comfort him softly, and pat his back. Then, according to the specific situation, determine the cause of the baby's crying, such as hunger, defecation, fatigue, dry mouth, etc., and solve it in time.

3. If the baby cries because of the long interval between two swimming sessions or other reasons of fear of water, this is generally a sign of insecurity. The mother can do this: gently hold the baby's hand, comfort him with words, or use toys to attract his attention, give the baby time to adapt, and then slowly let go. If the baby cries very hard, it is best to carry him out of the water first, and let him go back into the water after calming him down.
