Why is it said that babies can t cool their feet

If you pay attention to what your babies are wearing, you will find that many babies wear small socks, even in summer, newborn babies need to wear small socks. Because babies can't cool their feet, they can better protect their feet after wearing small socks, so why can't babies cool their feet?

The baby's body temperature regulation system is not mature, the peripheral circulation is poor, once the center of the foot is cold, the cold will invade the whole body from the soles of the feet, thus causing various discomforts in the baby's body and affecting the baby's health. Therefore, when the weather becomes cold, parents need to put on socks for the baby in addition to adding clothes to the baby to avoid cold feet.

In addition to the soles of the feet, babies should not be exposed to cold in their stomachs. Discomfort such as diarrhea and vomiting will occur when the baby's stomach is cold, which will affect the baby's appetite and have a direct impact on its growth and development. In the hot summer weather, some parents will take off their baby's clothes to dissipate heat, but in fact, this practice is easy to make the baby cold.

In the process of taking care of the baby, parents must always pay attention to the baby's hot and cold problems, and can directly touch the baby's back with their hands, so as to directly judge whether the baby is too cold or too hot. If you feel that the baby's back is sweaty, it means that the baby is hot and can take off some clothes; If you feel that the baby's back is colder than the palm of your hand, it means that the baby does not have enough clothes on her body and needs to add one or two more clothes.

It is normal for the baby's feet to be cold, every organ of the newborn baby or a young baby is very fragile, the capillaries are not as many as adults, and the blood in the body cannot reach the nerve endings, so the baby's feet will be cold. Your baby will not be able to regulate her body temperature in a very cold or hot environment, which will affect your baby's blood circulation. The baby's ability to regulate body temperature is weak, try to keep the baby in a room temperature environment, so that the baby's feet will not be cold, in winter, the indoor temperature is best controlled at about 25 degrees.

Parents are worried that the baby is too cold, will give the baby to wear more and thicker, too tight clothes will affect the blood circulation in the baby's body, which will also cause the baby's feet to be cold, in the dress to ensure comfort, warmth, hands and feet can move. Parents can also touch the baby's chest, back, or the back of the head. If you are sweating or cold, you need to increase or remove your baby's clothing.

You should also pay attention to the warmth of the baby's legs and feet, and don't cover them too tightly.

It is also necessary to consider whether the baby is anemia, malnutrition, and the cause of the disease will also have cold feet. When the baby has a fever, the hands and feet will be cold, the baby's palms and feet will be dry and sweaty, and the forehead will feel hot, so the situation needs to be treated in time. If the baby's feet are cold, there are pale, low crying, not liking, mental state is easy to fatigue, parents need to observe the baby, there is such a situation in time to seek medical attention, can not delay.
