Summer weather is upon us. To protect your newborn in this hot weather consider the following:
- Keep outside time limited to early morning or early evening
- More frequent feeding of breastmilk or formula
- DO NOT give a newborn water
- Light loose clothing
- DO NOT cover baby’s stroller with a light blanket to shade baby, this can make the stroller space extremely hot.
- If you do not have AC in your home, consider going to play places, walking around the mall or visiting friends & family
- DO NOT use sunscreen on your newborn
- Hydrate yourself so you can make sure your breastmilk supply can keep up with baby’s needs
