heatwave

Hi,

Our son is just one week old and we're facing a heatwave here in the Netherlands in the coming weeks. I'd love to hear your tips/advice on how you keep your baby cool?

It's between 28-30 degrees inside during the day. Unbearable

Best wishes!

    Hi,
    our girl is 3 months old now.
    We gave her a bath to cool down, and she only had a romper on, and sometimes nothing at all.
    And drinking more was what the midwife said. We sometimes gave her water because she’s a big eater, and she still drank her bottles well. But only on the advice of the pediatrician; you can also just give more milk or nurse more often.
    Normally, when they’re this little, they sleep a lot, so it’s not too bad.

    Greetings
