What are the precautions for baby neck swimming? Baby collar swimming originated from abroad, and it became popular in China in recent years, which is controversial. However, infant neck swimming is not 100% safe and needs more attention. Let's take a look at the precautions for baby collar swimming.
Precautions for baby's neck swimming 1 1. The neck swimming is unsafe for four reasons:
1, the baby's neck is very soft, and the collar is easy to hurt the baby's tender cervical vertebra;
2, the collar is plastic, clinically, the baby is allergic to the collar or the collar is excessively rubbed to cause dermatitis;
3, the neck ring is easy to compress the trachea;
The most dangerous thing is that a person has carotid sinus on his neck. If he is accidentally crushed, pressure reflex may occur, heart rate will slow down and blood pressure will drop. If it is serious, he will even go into shock!
At present, the popular baby swimming in China is to put a small pool, put a small lifebuoy on the baby and put it into the water. I am most opposed to this kind of baby swimming! It is not safe to wear a neck ring. It is better to wear a chest ring, but it is also dangerous. It is best for parents and children to go swimming together.
Second, is there any hidden danger in the baby swimming collar?
The People's Daily conducted an investigation on whether the collar can be used for infant swimming, and questioned and interviewed Zhao Jin, a patent inventor of neonatal swimming equipment at home and abroad. Zhao introduced that he applied for a patent on 200 1. So far, there are no similar inventions and patents abroad.
He believes that there is no need to worry about the safety of the baby's neck ring. "Even if the baby is vertical in the water, the force that the neck needs to bear on the neck ring is only several times. As long as the newborn's hands and feet move a little, the reaction force of water will exceed the force on the neck. " He said he didn't receive any reports about the child's sprained neck. He informally followed 10 groups of families who insisted on newborn swimming and found that children's physique and all aspects of development were better than their peers. However, Ye Zhao admits that children over 12 months old can no longer swim with a collar, because the movements are too big and unsafe.
Zhang Silai, a child-rearing expert, believes that cases above 10 are evidence-based, and the number of medical cases is too small. There are individual differences between the experimental group and the control group, the design is not rigorous, and the conclusion is unscientific.
Third, how do foreign newborns swim?
Baby swimming is very popular abroad, but the main method used is parent-child swimming. When swimming, the mother and the baby enter the swimming pool together, and the adults hold the baby, one forearm holds the baby's hip, and the other hand holds the baby's back and sticks to the adult's body to enter the water. In the water, you can try to hold your baby's hips or put your hands under your armpits to make your baby feel the fun of playing with water as much as possible. The swimming process needs the assistance of a professional swimming coach. The coach will provide auxiliary tools according to the child's age and ability, such as floating boards, to let the baby lie down.
Four, baby collar swimming precautions
Due to the lack of professional infant swimming pool and professional infant swimming coach, it is still difficult to popularize "parent-child swimming" in China. Most people still use the collar swimming method, so what problems should be paid attention to when swimming with a collar for the baby?
1. Babies must be supervised by a special person when swimming.
2./Kloc-Newborns born within 0/0 days must be affixed with waterproof umbilical patch. After swimming, the waterproof navel patch should be removed, the navel should be disinfected and wrapped with the navel patch.
3. Newborn swimming rings must be tested for safety before use (such as model, safety buckle, air leakage, etc.). ).
4. Choose the appropriate swimming ring model according to the baby's neck circumference.
5. After the newborn puts on the swimming ring, check whether the insurance sticker is stuck firmly and gradually enter the water slowly.
Precautions for baby collar swimming II. How to use the collar of baby swimming ring?
1, first of all, inflation, inflation instructions: firstly, inflate one airbag to 60%, then inflate the other airbag, and finally inflate it to 90%. Inflatable, no buoyancy, easy to explode, resulting in unsafe factors, feel comfortable and appropriate after inflation.
2. Description of air nozzle: After the air pump is aligned with the air nozzle, unplug the air pump. At this point, the gas nozzle will automatically close, even if the gas nozzle cap is not covered, there will be no air leakage, which is considered as qualified. Then plug the valve cover for further safety. Remember, the valve cap must be tightly covered, and you can't think that the valve is not leaking without covering it, which also has hidden dangers. After covering the hat, be sure to press the air nozzle in the circle, or you will scratch your baby's neck!
First, check whether the air volume of the baby swimming ring is appropriate, whether there is air leakage or damage, and whether the buckle belt is connected well.
If the amount of gas not used for a long time is insufficient, you can use the attached pump to inflate it, and it is not advisable to inflate it too much. Inflating should be based on moderate soft and hard feel. Cover the air nozzle and press it into the baby swimming ring.
Break the baby swimming ring properly, insert the opening into the neck, put it into the baby's neck (there is a warning sign on the upper layer), and check that the neck circumference and inner diameter of the baby swimming ring are tight, the baby's jaw is adjusted in place, and the upper and lower straps are buckled.
Hold the baby well, immerse in the infant swimming pool, hold the baby properly, check the buoyancy of the infant swimming ring to the baby, gradually let go of the baby's hand and adjust it to help him grasp the handrail at the bottom of the infant swimming ring.
2. When can I use the collar of the baby swimming ring?
Babies learn to swim from an early age, which is good for intelligence. This is also what parents attach great importance to now. When taking them swimming, they will use swimming rings, which will be safer, but how big is the baby's swimming ring? This is a problem that parents should consider.
Collars are suitable for babies under one year old. Before the age of one, the muscles and bones of the baby's cervical spine have not developed to the extent that they can support the head. This requires the use of such a swimming ring to help support the baby's head when swimming. Prevent the baby from damaging the cervical spine during swimming.
At present, most baby swimming pools have parent-child activities, which means that babies are accompanied by their parents throughout the swimming process. By Baba Ma Bao personally holding the baby in the water to swim, in this case, the swimming ring can be omitted. If there is no such parent-child swimming pool, the baby can only take the swimming ring into the water by himself.
In addition to the collar, there are also seat rings, climbing rings and underarm rings in swimming rings, most of which are not suitable for babies under one year old. Seat ring is suitable for babies over six months old, underarm ring is suitable for babies over one year old, and seat ring and arm ring can only be used when babies are over two years old.
Swimming is a relaxing thing and good for health. It is a good thing for the baby to learn from childhood, but it is necessary to learn the correct tools and methods, so as to achieve the effect without damaging the baby's health.
After use, if it is necessary to deflate for storage, you can open the air nozzle plug and squeeze the bottom of the air nozzle, and squeeze the baby swimming ring appropriately to deflate.
When it is used again, use a pump to inflate it. First, inflate the upper safety valve. If it is not inflated enough, inflate the lower safety valve. Inflating should be based on appropriate soft and hard feeling, and then cover the valve.
