The weather is getting hotter and hotter, but what things should not be done to children in order to make them less injured?
My friend Xiaojun is a nurse and the mother of a two-year-old child. She has a lot of experience as a parent. Take summer as an example. When the temperature rose after sleeping, she began to turn on the air conditioner for the child. When many neighbors visit, they will say:
"Jun, you are a nurse. How can this common sense not be understood? It's so hot in summer, turn on the air conditioner for the children. As soon as you go out, the child begins to get hot. It will be very cold when you get home, and it is easy to catch a cold. Your child is still so young, turn it off quickly. Blowing the fan is better than blowing the air conditioner. "
In the face of neighbors' doubts, Xiaojun still turns on the air conditioner for his children at home. Many parents have misunderstandings about turning on the air conditioner for their children. Just master the indoor temperature and humidity. The space suitable for children has a temperature of 22-26 degrees and a humidity of 40%-60%. If the temperature and humidity in the home are within a reasonable range and the children can accept it, they can turn on the air conditioner.
Is it more suitable for children to blow fans in summer? There was once such a news that a woman was blown by a fan all night and her face was paralyzed. The principle of fan cooling is actually to speed up the flow of air and achieve the purpose of cooling through sweat evaporation and heat absorption. In fact, it can't change the temperature of the surrounding environment, so children are more likely to catch a cold.
Pediatricians stressed: it's hot in dog days, so don't do these three things. The sooner you know, the less you get hurt.
1. "Old people bring babies, and they will take them off when they are hot."
Just in summer, the temperature began to rise in dog days. Some old people began to undress their children when they saw that they were all sweaty, whether they were indiscriminate or worried that their children would catch cold. In their minds, how can they catch a cold in such hot weather? Therefore, in summer, children often walk around the room wearing only underwear or a small coat.
Some old people wear open-backed pants for their children, initially to cool them down, but the World Health Organization has long given up this practice, which will have a great impact on their growth, development and psychology.
"When it is hot, you must drink more water."
Many parents give their children more and more water after entering the summer. Although adults are often thirsty in summer, they seem to drink more water than before. But for children, babies under 6 months really don't need hydration. The summer when children absorb from breast milk is completely enough.
If the child is between 1 and 3 years old and the water requirement is about 100- 1500ml, you can give the child some fruit pulp and drink some water to supplement it. But do not add too much water. However, when children have a fever or sweat a lot in a hot environment for a long time, they need to add some water.
3. "Look after the children after dinner"
In summer, children's appetite is affected by temperature, which may be delayed more or less. Many parents begin to force their children to eat, and some children get angry easily in summer. After accumulating food and getting angry, I am particularly reluctant to eat it. However, parents began to force their children to eat for no reason. The child's belly is bulging, and it is easy to accumulate food and constipation, and the spleen and stomach are dragged down.
