The living environment of a baby in the mother's womb is in amniotic fluid, which means that the baby has the ability to swim from birth. So babies can use neck rings to swim in water a few months after birth, which can exercise their heart and lung abilities, but there is also a deadline. So how big can a baby collar be used?
Because the size of the neck collar cannot be changed, and the growth and development of infants are extremely rapid, the neck development rate of infants is also very fast. Therefore, it is recommended not to use neck collars again when infants are about a week and a half old.
Many parents have a dual view on the use of neck rings for babies: on the one hand, swimming is definitely beneficial for the baby's body, because newborn babies are most familiar with water environments and can effectively avoid drowning. On the other hand, neck rings can also have some negative effects on babies.
1. The size of the neck collar is incorrect, and the baby's neck is very delicate, which can easily affect the development of the baby's neck and neck.
2. The texture of the neck collar is usually plastic, and prolonged friction with the baby's skin is likely to cause dermatitis.
3. Babies cannot control their behavior. If the neck ring compresses the baby's trachea during swimming, it can cause the baby to breathe in a delayed manner, which can harm them.
In summary, parents should carefully consider the pros and cons of using neck rings for their babies to swim.
