Question

My baby was born in August and is now over seven months old. The entire winter has been spent without taking the baby outdoors. Is this okay? With the weather gradually warming up, will the baby be able to adapt if we take them out suddenly? The environment isn’t very good; should we wear masks or use face veils?

Answer

Based on your description, the baby needs to adapt to the outdoor environment. I suggest taking the baby out on sunny days, allowing them to get plenty of sunlight. Just ensure they are well-protected against the cold and there’s no need for masks. Also, pay attention to the baby’s balanced diet and ensure their bowel movements are smooth, and avoid letting them catch a cold. These are my suggestions for the question “Is it appropriate to take a 7-month-old baby outdoors in winter?” I hope this helps you and your baby stay healthy!
