Let's face it: when it comes to organizing a baby, it's a lot easier in the summer.

No clutter and excess layers, no worries about rain going down and the whole procedure is much simpler and faster.

However, summer requires a different approach for you as mothers when it comes to caring for the baby and ensuring safety at sea or in the pool, preventing dehydration and more and more.



So to make sure you are aware of all the important things and give them special attention, here are some parenting guide Maya Sofer's tips for proper conduct with babies in the summer season:



How do you dress Newborn?



A newborn baby is unable to regulate its body temperature.

This also applies to body heating - hence the recommendation to dress it in an additional layer, but also to cool it.

The baby is unable to cool himself, so it is important not to dress him excessively on hot days.

The principle says one layer above what we wear, so if you are with a short sleeve - a newborn baby can have a long and thin sleeve.



The law of a carrier or blanket is the law of a layer of clothing



You may not think about it, but a baby carrier or blanket that you use frequently on a daily basis functions as a layer of clothing for all intents and purposes.

Keep this in mind when dressing the baby, and if he spends a lot of time in the baby carrier, make sure he is dressed accordingly.



Water Water Water



According to the guidelines of the Ministry of Health, a baby does not need extra water until the age of six months, as long as his main food is breast milk or formula. At the age of six months, with the transition to solids, water should be added to the baby's diet. Warm, and note that he drinks enough.If the baby refuses to drink water, make sure to "supplement" his fluids with breastfeeding or an additional bottle of formula - and for that the next two highlights.



Breastfeed more on hot days



Our milk composition is constantly changing and adapting itself to the baby's needs, so on hot days the milk will become thinner and contain more water in order to provide the baby with the amount of fluid he needs.

Whether the baby is on full breastfeeding or in combination with solids, he may want to breastfeed more on hot days and should be allowed to.



You should also offer more bottles



even though it seems reasonable, do not dilute the formula on hot days and offer more water than the necessary compound powder. What can be done? Offer another bottle to provide more source of fluid. When we put water in the baby's small stomach, they Fill it up and create a feeling of fullness in the short term, which will affect food intake. Make sure that the baby does not eat less / dilute formula so that his food intake is not harmed.



Do not cover the stroller with a Tetra diaper



It is true that your goal is good, and you want to protect the baby from the sun, but the effect obtained from covering the stroller with a Tetra diaper is the same as the effect of a closed vehicle warming up in the sun.

You can buy a parasol, or put a cloth diaper on the cart that will be slightly shielded from the sun, but in no way cover it all.



Discover extra vigilance at sea and



in the pool Are you going to lie in the sea or in the pool?

how fun!

But do not forget to observe the safety rules especially in these places and do not take your eyes off the little ones not even for a moment.

At the same time, provide a hat, sunscreen and of course plenty of water, breastfeeding or formula.

The Jama app was established with the aim of addressing mothers of babies from birth to age three, and centralizing for them content, activities, tips from experts and videos that will accompany them throughout this challenging period.

All the content in the app "grows" together with the baby and is precisely adapted to its developmental stages, so that the mothers receive only what is relevant to them and interests them at any given moment.



The Jama app is the place for mothers in Israel to meet and get to know other mothers around them, and create new and exciting friendships in the fascinating journey.
