Many people will put some new furniture in their homes. However, upon closer inspection of these new furniture items, one will notice a certain odor, which may not have a significant impact on adults, but can have a certain effect on those with poor physical condition. So, does new furniture have an impact on newborn babies?
New houses, new furniture, etc. have a certain impact on newborn babies. Firstly, the odor of new furniture may contain formaldehyde, benzene, and organic substances in paint, which can affect the organ health of infants. After all, newborn infants' organ development is not yet mature, so respiratory odor can cause respiratory diseases such as rhinitis and tracheitis.
Secondly, external stimuli can easily make babies' eyes uncomfortable. The harmful substances released by new furniture in the air can cause significant damage to their eyes. If the concentration of substances released by new furniture is low, babies may only rub their eyes, shed tears, etc. If the concentration of substances released by new furniture is high, it can cause infants to have red eyes and increased eye secretions.
In addition, infants have poor immune function and their skin is sensitive to irritants in the environment. Therefore, when exposed to substances released by new furniture, they may experience skin redness, swelling, and clumping. Babies themselves are a group of people who sleep a lot, and if there are stimulating substances in the room, it is not conducive to their sleep and can affect their physical development. So when parents purchase new furniture, it is best to leave it in an empty room for a period of time before using it again.
