What happens when a baby sweats while sleeping after recovering from illness
Due to the vigorous metabolism and active nature of infants and young children, some may not feel peaceful even after going to bed at night, so their heads can sweat after falling asleep. At the same time, parents are often accustomed to determining the optimal ambient temperature for their children based on their subjective feelings, and they like to cover their babies tightly with extra blankets. But the child is also in the stage of growth and development, and the body's metabolism is very active. Coupled with the stimulation of overheating, only through sweating can the heat in the body be evaporated to regulate normal body temperature, so there is no need to worry.
What should I do if my baby sweats a lot while sleeping
Parents can put a dry, soft towel or handkerchief behind their baby's back and neck before they go to sleep. If the towel or handkerchief gets wet with sweat, they should replace it with a new one in a timely manner until the baby stops sweating. This can ensure that the baby's back and neck remain dry and prevent them from catching a cold after sweating. At the same time, give your baby frequent baths to keep their skin clean, and apply talcum powder to areas where they sweat a lot, such as the neck, back, armpits, etc., to keep their skin dry.
