The health problems of babies are the most headache inducing for mothers. If the baby's resistance is poor, they will frequently get sick, and mothers will feel helpless. Especially when the baby's body temperature rises, the mother becomes even more conflicted about whether or not to give the baby medication. What about the baby's temperature of 37.7 degrees?
1. Heat reducing stickers
The normal body temperature of a baby should not exceed 37.5 degrees. If it exceeds 37.5 degrees, it indicates a slight fever. At this time, the mother also does not need to give medication to the baby. By applying antipyretic patches, it can help the baby cool down. If you want a better effect on reducing fever, you can apply it to both the forehead and neck at the same time. Any pharmacy can buy antipyretic patches. It is recommended that mothers prepare some at home for emergencies.
2. Cold compress
If the baby has a mild fever in summer, the mother can use cold compress to reduce the fever. Mom soaked a clean towel in cold water, wrung it dry, and applied it to the baby's forehead, which had a good cooling effect. You can also prepare more towels and apply them to different areas at the same time for better results.
3. Hot compress
If it's winter, mothers should not give their babies cold compresses, but instead choose hot compresses. Soak a towel in hot water and wipe the baby's body first. After wiping, rinse the towel once and apply it to the baby's forehead. Replace every two minutes, and if the water temperature is too low, replace the hot water in a timely manner to ensure the cooling effect.
