In the cold of winter nights, delicate newborns need more nuanced care and warmth. Many parents wonder: do newborns need to be covered with quilts on cold winter nights?The answer is undoubtedly yes. Newborns' thermoregulatory mechanisms are not fully developed, and they are susceptible to outside temperatures. Failure to keep warm can lead to a drop in body temperature and even hypothermia.
However, we also want to avoid over-warmth. Excessive warmth can make newborns sweat, causing dampness and increasing the risk of infection. Therefore, it is important to choose the right quilt and blanket to ensure the comfort and warmth of the newborn. When choosing comforters and blankets, focus on texture, lightness, and warmth. At the same time, it is also important to avoid over-wrapping newborns so as not to affect their breathing and movement.
We need to keep an eye on the temperature and sweating of our newborns. If you notice that your newborn has a high or low body temperature or is sweating profusely, take immediate steps to ensure their safety and well-being.
In short, although the winter nights are cold, the newborn still needs to be covered with a quilt. We should pay attention to moderate warmth, choose the right quilt and blanket, and closely observe the body temperature and sweating of newborns to ensure that they can grow up healthy and happy in this cold season.
