If a baby is born in summer and in very hot weather, parents are also very concerned about the care of the baby. The baby needs to wear a diaper, otherwise they will urinate everywhere. However, in already hot weather, wearing diapers can make the baby feel uncomfortable or develop eczema on the buttocks. So, what should we do if the baby wears diapers in summer?
Firstly, in summer, parents should promptly change their baby's diaper to a dry and breathable one, preferably made of pure cotton. If the baby urinates on the diaper, it must be changed immediately. If possible, rinse the buttocks with warm water, dry them, and apply a diaper cream before putting on the new diaper for the baby.
Secondly, it is advisable not to stay indoors for too long during the hot summer to avoid situations such as dehydration and heatstroke in babies. Additionally, wet urine wrapping around a baby's buttocks can also be uncomfortable. It is recommended not to go out in the summer afternoon when the sun is shining, and to turn on air conditioning at a suitable temperature at home to allow the baby to rest or play at home, maintaining a comfortable environment.
Another thing is that parents can help their babies urinate before or after they wake up. Especially after urinating, some babies may not wet their pants all night and can be trained to develop good bowel habits. They can consciously control bowel movements and not urinate randomly at any time. When the child grows up, they no longer need to use a urine bag.
