1. Maintain a moderate temperature: Keep the room temperature between 24-26°C (75-78°F). Avoid making the room too cold.
2. Dress appropriately: Dress your baby in light, breathable clothing, and avoid over-layering. Keep a light blanket handy if needed.
3. Avoid direct airflow: Ensure the cold air from the AC is not blowing directly onto the baby. You can adjust the AC vents or use a shield to divert the airflow.
4. Humidity control: ACs can dry out the air. Consider using a humidifier to maintain humidity levels in the room to avoid drying out the baby's skin and airways.
5. Monitor the baby: Keep an eye on your newborn to ensure they are comfortable. If they feel too cold or too hot, adjust the settings accordingly.
These measures will help ensure your newborn remains comfortable while using the AC.
