Mom of a 5 yr 3 m old girl4 years ago

Q.

hi 👋 doctor is it ok if I put the fan at full speed as my baby sleeps only if it's at full speed. if I lower the speed or switch it off she wakes up immediately. I feel she may get cold and I can't even cover her fully . initially she used to sleep in the netted bed so I used to cover the bed with some clothes , but now she is not willing to sleep in it .what to do now.

A. hi your baby is 8 months old now if there is a strong air blowing over baby's face baby can catch cold so it's not advisable to do it.keep well fitting clothes to avoid excessive sweating

A. Hello mom If baby is waking up after you are switching off the fan then in such case you just have to use thermal wear or winter wear clothes to cover your baby. After that if you are using fan and the temperature of baby is normal then you should not worry. And according to the temperature you have to cover your baby. But don’t cover baby’s head while baby sleeping Happy parenting Stay home stay safe
