What are some special preparations to make for a baby born in the winter?
Cupid’s Advice:
Congratulations! Â Whether you’ll be a first-time mom or not, it’s important to know that there are some special preparations to make for a baby’s arrival in winter compared to those who are born during warmer months. Â Here’s some advice:
1. Clothing: Since it’ll be cold, your baby will need a snowsuit and a thick warm sleep suit. Â Don’t forget fleece blankets and hats that will cover their ears.
2. Bathing: To avoid exposure to the cold, be certain the room is warm and comfortable. Â This means that you’re not in a position to skimp on your heating bill this winter.
3. Car seats: Since it’s winter, don’t worry about buying a stroller. Â Instead, purchase a car seat.
