Factors affecting the body temperature of newborns

Although the body temperature of the newborn will change according to the activity status of the newborn, it will also be affected by external factors. Such as:
1. When the external environment temperature is too high (especially in summer). If the baby stays in the arms of Ma Ma for too long, the body temperature will also rise. But this kind of fever will not last too long, just put the baby in a cool place and fan with a fan.
2. When the baby wears a lot (especially in winter). In the changing seasons, Ma Ma often wears a lot of clothes for the baby to avoid the baby from getting cold. At this time, the baby’s body temperature will also increase. At this time, Ma Ma needs to appropriately reduce the clothes for the baby.
3. A small number of newborns will have the so-called “dehydration fever” or “one-off fever” within 3-5 days after birth. The body temperature can rise to 39℃-40℃, which often lasts for several hours or even 1-2 days. Newborns may be accompanied by facial redness, dry skin, crying, and restlessness, etc., which are caused by too little water intake, high room temperature, or thick clothing. After breastfeeding or feeding some warm plain water, the body temperature will drop quickly.
