What are the precautions for letting your baby swim?

Nowadays, most families have only one child, and parents attach great importance to their children. Many parents want their children to learn swimming when they are very young. Some parents have even applied for swimming cards before their children are born, and take their children to the swimming pool on time every week. So what should you pay attention to when taking your children to the swimming pool?

1. Water temperature: The water temperature is required to be between 36 and 38 degrees Celsius. Room temperature: The room temperature should be maintained between 25 and 28 degrees Celsius.

2. After the baby is 2 months old, the water temperature can be lowered by one degree every month until the baby is 12 months old.

Each newborn needs a bucket of water. Swimming equipment for home use should also be disinfected regularly. For babies over two months old, it is not necessary to change the water every time.

7. After the baby has put the collar on, check whether the safety buckle is fastened securely and put the baby into the water gradually and slowly.

8. After putting the collar on, check whether the lower jaw and chin are supported in the preset position to ensure that the child can breathe freely.
