• Cotton clothes are preferable, because
this fabric is easy to
clean and dry, and it is soft on the baby’s skin.
• Avoid clothes that have drawstrings and large collars because
they may get wrapped around the baby’s neck,
posing a risk of
strangulation.
• Always try to dress your baby in loose clothes,
because tight
clothes may deform his growing bones and also prevent sweat
from evaporating from the baby’s skin.
Tips and tricks for dressing your baby
• Before you start dressing the baby,
first make sure that you
have everything you will need to dress him.
• It is preferable to choose a time when the baby is happy and
not crying.
• Try to distract his attention by playing
with him or hanging a
mobile or toys over the place where you dress your baby.
• Lay the baby down on a bed or change table so that he will be
comfortable whilst his mother dresses him.
Dressing the baby step-‐by-‐step
1.
When putting on the vest, open the neck as much as possible,
then pass the back of it under the baby’s head,
then bring the
front of it down to his neck. Then lift his head and pull the back of
the vest downwards until it is level with his shoulders.
2. Then put your hand in one of the sleeves and pull the child’s
arm through it; do the same with the other arm.
3. Pull the front of the garment down to the baby’s stomach, then
lift his legs and pull the lower part
of the vest down and fasten
the two ends of the vest together.
