What are the precautions for babies when going out?

Adults must be prepared when the baby goes out. Although going out can allow you to breathe fresh air, the baby's safety is also very important. Generally speaking, if your baby is going out, you must make plans in advance to avoid accidents as much as possible, especially for babies who are a few months old. So what are the safety precautions for your baby when going out?

1. Make arrangements for going out in advance

Spend 15 to 20 minutes planning how to get to your destination, what you'll need along the way, what your baby will eat, where to change your baby's clothes, and so on. It is important to ensure that there is a quiet place to feed your baby when you go out. This is especially important for babies less than one month old because their eating habits have not yet been established. You will also need to change your baby's clothes, so be sure to consider whether there is a suitable public place where you can do so. In the summer, it is also pleasant to sit in a nearby park and feed the children.

2. What to bring when traveling

① A flat surface for changing clothes (such as a foldable mat and plastic diapers); ② Disposable diapers; ③ Baby toilet paper; ④ Breast pads if breastfeeding; ⑤ Bottles and milk if bottle feeding; ⑥ Hat; ⑦ Sweater; ⑧ Toys to attract the child's attention; ⑨ Plastic bag for dirty diapers.

3. Use a sling

The sling can be used to hold the baby safely against the adult's chest, making both parties feel safe, while the adult can keep his hands free. When buying a sling, make sure it is washable because the baby may spill milk; be sure to try it out before buying it, and the sling must be convenient and comfortable. The shoulder straps must be wide so that when the baby grows a little, it will be comfortable and natural to carry. Many people believe that a child cannot be placed in a sling if they cannot lift their head, which is wrong. In fact, you can put your baby in a sling whenever you want. The baby will have a sense of comfort and trust. The baby can lower his head, lean on the adult's body or sling, and fall asleep peacefully.

4. Use a foldable stroller

The folding stroller has a semi-curved seat that is just the right size for the baby. Be sure to pad the baby's sides with something and fasten all straps to ensure the baby's safety inside. Even very small babies will stick their heads out to look outside the car. There may be times when you need to fold the bike, such as when getting on a bus or going to the shops, so practice this in advance. It must be able to fold flexibly, be able to be opened with one hand, and most importantly, be able to brake.
