i well it is almost 90 degrees today and my poor lil baby girl is so hot her hair has turned all curly cause shes sweating and it only looks curly when she is wet. she is in a a tank top and shorts does anyone have any ideas how to cool her off? i already put water all through her little head but its dry by now.
We used to give my daughter frozen water bottles to hold. She'd lick the condensation off of them and hold them. We were at ren fest one year and there wasnt a breeze to be found, but she was perfectly happy with her frozen water bottle. :-)
I know the feeling...put her hair up in ponytails , let her run around in a diaper and tanktop (or diaper only)...lots of water play in the tub. Lots of popsicles, icy juices, frozen fruit pieces, a fan, cold washclothes.. good luck
take her clothes off and sit her in a little pool or give her a bowl of water to play with. You do have to supervise her, but it's a great way to cool off.
I would also keep my daughter's hair wet when it is that hot - that's a great way to keep cool.
It's cold and rainy here - so enjoy!
keep cooling her off with the water and let her drink ice cool water to keep her inside temp normal and keep her in shade if poossible and if her face or body turns red get her in air condition as soon as possible you do not want her to over heat or get heat stroke.
Powder with corn starch will help and a fan. Stay inside where ist should be cooler. Cool baths helps too, but not so cool that she doesn't like it. Try not to stay outside too long, babies get hotter faster than we do and use sun block and a sun hat when you have to be out in the sun.
If you aren't able to do a kiddie pool or a sprinkler, put her in her highchair in just her diaper, and give her a shallow bowl/container of water to splash around in. If you have a bath tub, let her splash in there in lukewarm water.
popcicles and keep her neck and wrist wet with cool water. let her play in the water sprinkler if she is walking.
Put her in the bathtub with cool water to play?
try playing in the sprinkelers. It something fun for her to do and should help cool her off you too if your willing to go play with her. keep her full of fluids that helps. sorry I can't be more help.
1. keep her well hydrated
2. good hat on the head
3. sunblock
4. shade
5. lots of fruit -- esp. grapes or watermelon
6. put yogurt or juice in freezer to make frozen treats
7. find indoor play areas with air conditioning
8. Believe it or not, long sleeve loose cotton clothing
get a spray bottle and add water to it and spritz her often. evaporation has a cooling effect on the body
